Installation

Requirements

Python 3.7 and later is supported.

Besides python pheme also needs to have

  • libcairo2-dev
  • pango1.0

installed.

Development

pheme uses poetry for its own dependency management and build process.

First install poetry via pip

python3 -m pip install --user poetry

Afterwards run

poetry install

in the checkout directory of pheme (the directory containing the pyproject.toml file) to install all dependencies including the packages only required for development.

Afterwards activate the git hooks for auto-formatting and linting via autohooks.

poetry run autohooks activate

Validate the activated git hooks by running

poetry run autohooks check

API overview

To get an overview of the API you can start this project

poetry run python manage.py runserver

and then go to swagger

Usage

In order to prepare the data structure the XML report data needs to be posted to pheme with a grouping indicator (either by host or nvt).

E.g.:

> curl -X POST 'http://localhost:8000/transform?grouping=nvt'\
    -H 'Content-Type: application/xml'\
    -H 'Accept: application/json'\
    -d @test_data/longer_report.xml
  
  "scanreport-nvt-9a233b0d-713c-4f22-9e15-f6e5090873e3"⏎

The returned identifier can be used to generate the actual report.

So far a report can be either in:

  • application/json
  • application/xml
  • text/csv E.g.
> curl -v 'http://localhost:8000/report/scanreport-nvt-9a233b0d-713c-4f22-9e15-f6e5090873e3' -H 'Accept: application/csv'

For visual report like

  • application/pdf
  • text/html

the corresponding css and html template needs to be put into pheme first:

> curl -X PUT localhost:8000/parameter\
    -H 'x-api-key: SECRET_KEY_missing_using_default_not_suitable_in_production'\
    --form vulnerability_report_html_css=@path_to_css_template\
    --form vulnerability_report_pdf_css=@path_to_css_template\
    --form vulnerability_report=@path_to_html_template

afterwards it can be get as usual:

> curl -v 'http://localhost:8000/report/scanreport-nvt-9a233b0d-713c-4f22-9e15-f6e5090873e3' -H 'Accept: application/pdf'
