git-vuln-finder
Finding potential software vulnerabilities from git commit messages. The output format is a JSON with the associated commit which could contain a fix regarding a software vulnerability. The search is based on a set of regular expressions against the commit messages only.
Requirements
- Python 3
- GitPython
Usage
usage: finder.py [-h] [-v] [-r R] [-o O] [-s S] [-p P]
Finding potential software vulnerabilities from git commit messages.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v increase output verbosity
-r R git repository to analyse
-o O Output format: [json]
-s S State of the commit found
-p P Matching pattern to use: [vulnpatterns, cryptopatterns,
cpatterns] - the pattern 'all' is used to match all the patterns
at once.

Patterns
git-vuln-finder comes with 3 default patterns which can be selected to find the potential vulnerabilities described in the commit messages such as:
vulnpatterns
is a generic vulnerability pattern especially targeting web application and generic security commit message. Based on an academic paper.cryptopatterns
is a vulnerability pattern for cryptographic errors mentioned in commit messages.cpatterns
is a set of standard vulnerability patterns see for C/C++-like languages.
A sample partial output from Curl git repository
python3 finder.py -r /home/adulau/git/curl | jq .
