![]() The third and final step in the pipeline is to publish the results of the test to Azure DevOps, this can be done using the native Publish Test Results task. This uses the XLST (OWASPToNUnit3.xslt)and powershell script (Transform.ps1) contained in the resource zip file available here. This is again done via a bit of powershell script. In order to be able to make use of the output from the scan this needs to be transformed into a supported format, using an XLST. Then initiate a baseline scan of the target system, retrieve the test results and then destroy the resources. The first task needs to run the PowerShell script Invoke-OwaspZapAciBaseline.ps1, this script will configure a resource group and storage account, download the latest OWASP-ZAP container image run this within the Azure Container Service. Unfortunately these scripts use the old Azure RM powershell module, I have updated the baseline script, to use the newer Az module. And make it a fairly simple process of integrating into you process. There is a set of scripts available from which help with the tasks in this pipeline. ZAP includes an API and a weekly docker container image that can be integrated into your deployment process. ![]() The Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is a free penetration testing tool for beginners to professionals. OWASP is a worldwide not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping improve the quality of software. The tool I normally choose for penetration testing is OWASP ZAP. In this post I am going to look at the Passive Pentest stage of the CI/CD Pipeline, I will cover the other stages in another post. As a CI/CD pipeline should complete within only a few minutes testing should be minimal to allow the identification of critical issues, in order to reduce the need for long running processes as part of this pipeline, but ensure a complete assessment, a regular nightly process should run to perform more thorough assessment of the solution. Hope this will help to quick start with ZAP.One of the most effective ways of enhancing the security posture of a solution is to incorporate security into the development lifecycle and embed it within the normal CI/CD pipelines of a project. Automated Scan Vulnerability Alerts Report In this post we are going to quick start with automated scan. Instead of using a spider, user have to manually browse through the website. ![]() ZAP will spider through the web application, exploring all the links it can find.It prevents user to scan an unwanted website. Allow to scan websites in a particular scope.Turns off all the dangerous operations while scanning.If do not want to save, choose “No, I do not want to persist this session at this moment in time” then start. If choose to persist a session, the session information will be saved in the local database to access it later. There are also Docker images available on the download site. ZAP has installers for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS/X. ZAP is what is known as a “ man-in-the-middle proxy.” It stands between the tester’s browser and the web application so that it can intercept and inspect messages sent between browser and web application, modify the contents if needed, and then forward those packets on to the destination. ![]() Can be used as a stand-alone application, and as a daemon process.Detect vulnerability present on any web server.The Open Web Application Security Project is a nonprofit foundation that works to improve the security of software.It helps finding the security vulnerabilities in web applications. OWASP ZAP is an open-source free web application security scanner. In this post we are going to quick explore OWASP Zed Attack Proxy(ZAP) security testing tool.
