OSS Security Scanning Tools resource page

Validate open source security in your software using OSS tools from JFrog Security When a new security threat – such as a zero-day vulnerability in a publicly available open-source package – arises, the time to respond is of the essence. We are happy to support the community with a range of OSS scan tools to identify such threats in your software quickly. These tools are continually developed by the JFrog Security Research team – the security experts behind JFrog Xray JFrog's OSS tools can be used for detecting exposure to known vulnerabilities (either dynamically or statically), for determining susceptibility to various supply-chain attacks and for evaluating software packages that may contain malicious code.

CVE-2022-22965 (SpringShell) tools

The SpringShell (CVE-2022-22965) vulnerability may affect some web applications using Spring Framework, but requires a number of conditions to be exploitable. One specific condition which may be rather rare (and therefore render most applications non-exploitable in practice) is the existence of Spring endpoints which bind request parameters to a non-primitive (Java Bean) type.

scan_springScans a root folder recursively for .jar and .war files which contain web endpoints that may be vulnerable to CVE-2022-22965

CVE-2022-42889 (TextShell) tools

The TextShell vulnerability (CVE-2022-42889) affects users of the popular Apache Commons Text package, that use String Interpolation APIs. Exploiting the vulnerability is trivial in relevant cases and leads to remote code execution.
