Implemented /api/v2/report and /api/v2/report/scans endpoints to deliver comprehensive scan analytics and vulnerability summaries.
Reports now include:
Total number of scans, projects, files, and lines of code scanned.
Breakdown of vulnerabilities grouped by scanner (e.g., SAST, IAC, SECRET, etc.).
Counts of findings by status: True Positive, False Positive, Unverified.
Added comparison support between current (live) and one_month_ago metrics.
Markdown templates were created to display percentage change trends:
π Increase or π decrease in scans, files, and LoC.
Markdown-compatible layout supports rendering in dashboards, GitHub, and PDF exports.
Built dynamic Markdown table rendering:
Per-scanner vulnerability breakdown.
CWE-based and status-based vulnerability distribution tables.
Aggregate totals across scanners and statuses included in table footers.
Added project listings with links, scan references, and metadata such as created_at and branch.
Vulnerability reports auto-update using latest completed scans (per project).
Introduced support for mermaid.js and basic charting ideas for future visual dashboards.
May 13th, 2025
Introduced BuildSecurityPolicyWithDefaults, a utility that constructs a complete security policy based on user input, default values, and plan-based access control.
The following plan-based restrictions are now enforced:
Free Plan: Only compliance, secret, and pii scanners can be enabled.
Premium Plan: Adds support for sast, sca, container, iac, and api scanners.
Ultimate Plan: All scanners are allowed.
Even if users attempt to enable unauthorized scanners, they are automatically disabled (set to false).
All scanners are now always present in the policy for consistency, with unavailable ones disabled as per plan.
Invalid frequency values are now replaced with "none" using cron syntax validation.
CreateGroup and UpdateGroup functions in the datastore now:
Return the full group document (not just success/failure).
Include security_policy integration with enforcement.
API endpoints for group creation (POST) and update (PUT) now:
Accept name and security_policy in JSON body.
Apply default policy structure and plan-based overrides before saving.
Return the newly created or updated group object in the response.
Improved validation of input data (e.g. cron expressions, JSON formats).
Resolved issues with scanner value enforcement logic.
Ensured consistent scanner output structure regardless of user input.
