Write you own Static Analysis tool

With libsast, you can write your own static analysis tools. libsast provides two matching engines:

  1. Pattern Matcher
  2. Semantic Grep

Pattern Matcher

Currently Pattern Matcher supports any language.

Use Regex 101 to write simple Python Regex rule patterns.

A sample rule looks like

- id: test_regex_or
  description: This is a rule to test regex_or
  input_case: exact
  pattern:
  - MODE_WORLD_READABLE|Context\.MODE_WORLD_READABLE
  - openFileOutput\(\s*".+"\s*,\s*1\s*\)
  severity: error
  type: RegexOr
  owasp: 'OWASP Category'

A rule consist of

  • id : A unique id for the rule
  • description: A description for the rule
  • input_case: It can be exact, upper or lower. Data will be converted to lower case/upper case/as it is before comparing with the regex.
  • pattern: List of patterns depends on type.
  • severity: It can be error, warning or info
  • type: Pattern Matcher supports Regex, RegexAnd, RegexOr, RegexAndOr, RegexAndNot
  • custom_field: Define your own custom fields that you can use as metadata
1. Regex - if regex1 in input
2. RegexAnd - if regex1 in input and regex2 in input
3. RegexOr - if regex1 in input or regex2 in input
4. RegexAndOr -  if regex1 in input and (regex2 in input or regex3 in input)
5. RegexAndNot - if regex1 in input and not regex2 in input

Example: Pattern Matcher Rule

Test your pattern matcher rules

$ libsast -p tests/assets/rules/pattern_matcher/patterns.yaml tests/assets/files/

Inbuilt Standard Mapping Support

Semantic Grep

Semantic Grep uses semgrep, a fast and syntax-aware semantic code pattern search for many languages: like grep but for code.

Currently it supports Python, Java, JavaScript, Go and C.

Use semgrep.dev to write semantic grep rule patterns.

A sample rule for Python code looks like

rules:
  - id: boto-client-ip
    patterns:
      - pattern-inside: boto3.client(host="...")
      - pattern-regex: '\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}'
    message: "boto client using IP address"
    languages: [python]
    severity: ERROR
    metadata:
      owasp: 'OWASP Category'
      cwe: 'CWE Category'

See semgrep documentation here.

Example: Semantic Grep Rule

Test your semgrep rules

$ libsast -s tests/assets/rules/semantic_grep/sgrep.yaml tests/assets/files/
