Ciao Francecsco,
I don't know if OWASP is pointless or not because I don't see the report.

But looking for his username and "owasp" on Google, I saw that he had open the same issue on several Apache project [1], [2] and [3].
I think (and hope) he is "only" a spammer...

BR,

Massi

Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on SYNCOPE-1349:
-------------------------------------------------

I have added a profile as follows to the root pom.xml:

{code}
     <profile>
       <id>owasp</id>
<build>
         <plugins>
           <plugin>
             <groupId>org.owasp</groupId>
             <artifactId>dependency-check-maven</artifactId>
             <version>3.3.0</version>
             <executions>
               <execution>
                 <goals>
                   <goal>aggregate</goal>
                 </goals>
               </execution>
             </executions>
           </plugin>
         </plugins>
       </build>
<modules>
         <module>docker</module>
       </modules>
     </profile>
{code}

and obtained the attached report, which is mostly pointless: for example, it 
identifies {{cpe:/a:apache:cxf:2.0.10}} for 
{{syncope-core-rest-cxf-2.0.10-SNAPSHOT.jar}}, or 
{{cpe:/a:apache:geronimo:4.8}} for {{xbean-asm6-shaded-4.8.jar}} - and many 
others like these.

Please add OWASP Dependency Check to the build (pom.xml)

                 Key: SYNCOPE-1349
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-1349
             Project: Syncope
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 2.0.10, 2.1.1, 3.0.0
         Environment: All development, build, test, environments.
            Reporter: Albert Baker
            Priority: Major
              Labels: build, easy-fix, security
   Original Estimate: 1h
  Remaining Estimate: 1h

  Please add OWASP Dependency Check to the build (pom.xml).  OWASP DC makes an 
outbound REST call to MITRE Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures (CVE) to perform 
a lookup for each dependant .jar to list any/all known vulnerabilities for each 
jar.  This step is needed because a manual MITRE CVE lookup/check on the main 
component does not include checking for vulnerabilities in components or in 
dependant libraries.
OWASP Dependency check : https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Dependency_Check 
has plug-ins for most Java build/make types (ant, maven, ivy, gradle).
Also, add the appropriate command to the nightly build to generate a report of 
all known vulnerabilities in any/all third party libraries/dependencies that 
get pulled in. example : mvn -Powasp -Dtest=false -DfailIfNoTests=false clean 
aggregate
Generating this report nightly/weekly will help inform the project's 
development team if any dependant libraries have a reported known 
vulnerailities.  Project teams that keep up with removing vulnerabilities on a 
weekly basis will help protect businesses that rely on these open source 
componets.
