Andrew Musselman commented on MAHOUT-2053:
------------------------------------------
Okay thanks for the info; have you tried running it on the Mahout repo? Would
be nice if you could and let us know what you find out so we have at least a
baseline of what to expect and how it could help.
> Please add OWASP Dependency Check to the core build (pom.xml) and all
> sub-componet builds.

> Key: MAHOUT-2053
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-2053
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 0.13.0, 0.14.0, 0.13.1, 0.13.2
> Environment: All development, build, test, environments.
> Reporter: Albert Baker
> Priority: Major
> Labels: build, easyfix, security
> Original Estimate: 5h
> Remaining Estimate: 5h
>
> 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.
