CVRF is a standard where security advisories are encoded in a XML format.

We are currently not generating such a format, but it seems to be getting more attention.

Idea is to use the OVAL and CVE generators to also generate CVRF.

      I implemented the first version of CVRF generation during Hackweek 15.

    vex8s-controller: a kubernetes controller to automatically generate VEX documents of your running workloads by agreggi

    Description

    vex8s-controller is an add-on for SBOMscanner project. Its purpose is to automatically generate VEX documents based on the workloads running in a kubernetes cluster. It integrates directly with SBOMscanner by monitoring VulnerabilityReports created for container images and producing corresponding VEX documents that reflect each workload’s SecurityContext.

    vex8s-controller workflow

    Here's the workflow explained:

    1. sbomscanner scans for images in registry
    2. generates a VulnerabilityReport with the image CVEs
    3. vex8s-controller triggers when a workload is scheduled on the cluster and generates a VEX document based on the workload SecurityContext configuration
    4. the VEX document is provided by vex8s-controller using a VEX Hub repository
    5. sbomscanner configure the VEXHub CRD to point to the internal vex8s-controller VEX Hub repository

    Goals

    The objective is to build a kubernetes controller that uses the vex8s mitigation rules engine to generate VEX documents and serve them through an internal VEX Hub repository within the cluster. SBOMscanner can then be configured to consume VEX data directly from this in-cluster repository managed by vex8s-controller.

    Looking at Rust if it could be an interesting programming language by jsmeix

    Get some basic understanding of Rust security related features from a general point of view.

    This Hack Week project is not to learn Rust to become a Rust programmer. This might happen later but it is not the goal of this Hack Week project.

    The goal of this Hack Week project is to evaluate if Rust could be an interesting programming language.

    An interesting programming language must make it easier to write code that is correct and stays correct when over time others maintain and enhance it than the opposite.


    Exploring Rust's potential: from basics to security by sferracci

    Description

    This project aims to conduct a focused investigation and practical application of the Rust programming language, with a specific emphasis on its security model. A key component will be identifying and understanding the most common vulnerabilities that can be found in Rust code.

    Goals

    Achieve a beginner/intermediate level of proficiency in writing Rust code. This will be measured by trying to solve LeetCode problems focusing on common data structures and algorithms. Study Rust vulnerabilities and learning best practices to avoid them.
