Github Analyzer

Audits a GitHub organization for potential security issues. The tool is currently in pre-alpha stage and only supports limited functionality, however we will be actively adding checks in the upcoming months, and welcome feature requests or contributions! Once the analysis is complete, a static HTML with the summary of the results is rendered in localhost:3000 as shown below:

How to run

You can see available options via the --help flag.

Running locally

Install with:

go install -v github.com/crashappsec/github-analyzer/cmd/github-analyzer@latest

Run with:

$GOPATH/bin/github-analyzer \
  --organization <your org name> \
  --token "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_TOKEN"

Running using Docker

After cloning the repo, build the container using:
```
docker compose build --no-cache
```

Run

docker compose run \
    --rm --service-ports \
    github-analyzer \
        --organization <your org name> \
        --output output \
        --token "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_TOKEN"

Permissions

For API-based based checks, you need to pass in GitHub Token (either personal access token (PAT) or token derived from GitHub app installation) with the appropriate permissions. Example usage:

github-analyzer \
    --organization <your org name> \
    --token "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_TOKEN"

See our wiki for instructions on setting up a token to be used with the github-analyzer.

For experimental scraping-based checks, you need to pass in your username and password, as well your two factor authentication one-time-password, as needed. Example usage:

github-analyzer \
    --organization crashappsec \
    --token "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_TOKEN" \
    --userPermissionStats \
    --enableScraping \
    --username "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_USERNAME" \
    --password "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_PASSWORD" \
    --otpSeed "$GH_SECURITY_AUDITOR_OTP_SEED"

See our wiki for instructions on setting up a token to be used with the analyzer.
