Audit dependencies to identify known vulnerabilities and maintenance problems

Package Exports

  • auditjs

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (auditjs) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

AuditJS

Audits an NPM project using the OSS Index v2 REST API to identify known vulnerabilities and outdated package versions.

Installation

npm install auditjs -g

Usage

  Usage: auditjs [options]

  Options:

    -b --bower                   This flag is necessary to correctly audit bower packages.
                                 Use together with -p bower.json, since scanning
                                 bower_components is not supported.
    -h, --help                   Output usage information

    -n --noNode                  Ignore node executable when scanning node_modules
    -p --package <file>          Specific package.json or bower.json file to audit
    -q --quiet                   Supress console logging
    -r --report                  Create JUnit reports in reports/ directory
    -v --verbose                 Print all vulnerabilities
    -V --version                 Output the version number
    -w --whitelist <file>        Whitelist.json of vulnerabilities that should not break the build,
                                 e.g. XSS vulnerabilities for an app with no possbile input for XSS.
                                 See Example test_data/audit_package_whitelist.json.

Audit installed packages and their dependencies to identify known vulnerabilities.

Execute from inside a node project (above the node_modules directory) to audit the dependencies.

If a package.json file is specified as an argument, only the dependencies in the package file will be audited.

If a vulnerability is found to be affecting an installed library the package header will be highlighted in red and information about the pertinent vulnerability will be printed to the screen.

Screenshot

Running in verbose mode prints more descriptive output, and some extra information such as ALL vulnerabilities for a package, whether they are identified as impacting the installed version or not.

Limitations

As this program depends on the OSS Index database, network access is required. Connection problems with OSS Index will result in an exception.

The current version of AuditJS only reports on top level dependencies. If feedback indicates people are interested we will extend auditing to run against the full dependency tree

The NVD does not always indicate all (or any) of the affected versions it is best to read the vulnerability text itself to determine whether any particular version is known to be vulnerable.

  • Bower support
  • JUnit reports
  • Whitelisting
