Albert Baker commented on SYNCOPE-1349:
---------------------------------------
Masi : I have used this tool repeatedly over the years to discover that there
are many, severe /known/ vulnerabilities in most major open source software
product that I looked at. The frequency of breaches and exploits around the
world is accelerating, because simple things are not being done properly.
Businesses dont have the knowledge to secure things properly. The /tool
builders/ us, have to make better tools/components. I am on a crusade to
request that OWASP Dependecny Check become standard in every open source (java)
build.
> 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
> Attachments: dependency-check-report.html
>
> 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.
