Submodules

bandit.core.blacklisting module

bandit.core.blacklisting.blacklist(context, config)

Generic blacklist test, B001.

This generic blacklist test will be called for any encountered node with defined blacklist data available. This data is loaded via plugins using the ‘bandit.blacklists’ entry point. Please see the documentation for more details. Each blacklist datum has a unique bandit ID that may be used for filtering purposes, or alternatively all blacklisting can be filtered using the id of this built in test, ‘B001’.

filter(severity, confidence)

Utility to filter on confidence and severity

This function determines whether an issue should be included by comparing the severity and confidence rating of the issue to minimum thresholds specified in ‘severity’ and ‘confidence’ respectively.

Formatters should call manager.filter_results() directly.

This will return false if either the confidence or severity of the issue are lower than the given threshold values.

Parameters:

• severity – Severity threshold
• confidence – Confidence threshold

Returns:

True/False depending on whether issue meets threshold

Bases: object

discover_files(targets, recursive=False, excluded_paths='')

Add tests directly and from a directory to the test set

Parameters:

• targets – The command line list of files and directories
• recursive – True/False - whether to add all files from dirs

Returns:

filter_results(sev_filter, conf_filter)

Returns a list of results filtered by the baseline

This works by checking the number of results returned from each file we process. If the number of results is different to the number reported for the same file in the baseline, then we return all results for the file. We can’t reliably return just the new results, as line numbers will likely have changed.

Parameters:

• sev_filter – severity level filter to apply
• conf_filter – confidence level filter to apply

get_issue_list(sev_level='LOW', conf_level='LOW')

get_skipped()

output_results(lines, sev_level, conf_level, output_file, output_format, template=None)

Outputs results from the result store

Parameters:

• lines – How many surrounding lines to show per result
• sev_level – Which severity levels to show (LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH)
• conf_level – Which confidence levels to show (LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH)
• output_file – File to store results
• output_format – output format plugin name
• template – Output template with non-terminal tags <N> (default: {abspath}:{line}: {test_id}[bandit]: {severity}: {msg})

Returns:

populate_baseline(data)

Populate a baseline set of issues from a JSON report

This will populate a list of baseline issues discovered from a previous run of bandit. Later this baseline can be used to filter out the result set, see filter_results.

results_count(sev_filter='LOW', conf_filter='LOW')

Return the count of results

Parameters:

• sev_filter – Severity level to filter lower
• conf_filter – Confidence level to filter

Returns:

Number of results in the set

Bases: object

Bandit metric gathering.

This class is a singleton used to gather and process metrics collected when processing a code base with bandit. Metric collection is stateful, that is, an active metric block will be set when requested and all subsequent operations will effect that metric block until it is replaced by a setting a new one.

aggregate()

This starts a new metric collection name “fname” and makes is active.

Parameters:fname – the metrics unique name, normally the file name.

count_issues(scores)

count_locs(lines)

Count lines of code.

We count lines that are not empty and are not comments. The result is added to our currently active metrics loc count (normally this is 0).

Parameters:lines – lines in the file to process

note_nosec(num=1)

Note a “nosec” commnet.

Increment the currently active metrics nosec count.

Parameters:num – number of nosecs seen, defaults to 1

bandit.core.test_properties module

bandit.core.test_properties.accepts_baseline(*args)

Decorator to indicate formatter accepts baseline results

Use of this decorator before a formatter indicates that it is able to deal with baseline results. Specifically this means it has a way to display candidate results and know when it should do so.

Decorator function to set checks to be run.

bandit.core.test_properties.takes_config(*args)

Test function takes config

Use of this delegate before a test function indicates that it should be passed data from the config file. Passing a name parameter allows aliasing tests and thus sharing config options.

bandit.core.test_properties.test_id(id_val)

Test function identifier

Use this decorator before a test function indicates its simple ID

bandit.core.test_set module

class bandit.core.test_set.BanditTestSet(config, profile=None)

Bases: object

static report_error(test, context, error)

run_tests(raw_context, checktype)

Runs all tests for a certain type of check, for example

Runs all tests for a certain type of check, for example ‘functions’ store results in results.

Parameters:

• raw_context – Raw context dictionary
• checktype – The type of checks to run

Returns:

a score based on the number and type of test results

bandit.core.utils module

exception bandit.core.utils.ConfigError(message, config_file)

Raised when the config file fails validation.

exception bandit.core.utils.InvalidModulePath

Bases: exceptions.Exception

bandit.core.utils.LOG = <logging.Logger object>

Various helper functions.

exception bandit.core.utils.ProfileNotFound(config_file, profile)

Bases: exceptions.Exception

Raised when chosen profile cannot be found.

bandit.core.utils.check_ast_node(name)

Check if the given name is that of a valid AST node.

bandit.core.utils.concat_string(node, stop=None)

Builds a string from a ast.BinOp chain.

This will build a string from a series of ast.Str nodes wrapped in ast.BinOp nodes. Something like “a” + “b” + “c” or “a %s” % val etc. The provided node can be any participant in the BinOp chain.

Parameters:

• node – (ast.Str or ast.BinOp) The node to process
• stop – (ast.Str or ast.BinOp) Optional base node to stop at

Returns:

(Tuple) the root node of the expression, the string value

bandit.core.utils.deepgetattr(obj, attr)

Recurses through an attribute chain to get the ultimate value.

bandit.core.utils.escaped_bytes_representation(b)

PY3 bytes need escaping for comparison with other strings.

In practice it turns control characters into acceptable codepoints then encodes them into bytes again to turn unprintable bytes into printable escape sequences.

This is safe to do for the whole range 0..255 and result matches unicode_escape on a unicode string.

bandit.core.utils.get_call_name(node, aliases)

bandit.core.utils.get_called_name(node)

Get a function name from an ast.Call node.

An ast.Call node representing a method call with present differently to one wrapping a function call: thing.call() vs call(). This helper will grab the unqualified call name correctly in either case.

Parameters:node – (ast.Call) the call node Returns:(String) the function name

bandit.core.utils.get_func_name(node)

bandit.core.utils.get_module_qualname_from_path(path)

Get the module’s qualified name by analysis of the path.

Resolve the absolute pathname and eliminate symlinks. This could result in an incorrect name if symlinks are used to restructure the python lib directory.

Starting from the right-most directory component look for __init__.py in the directory component. If it exists then the directory name is part of the module name. Move left to the subsequent directory components until a directory is found without __init__.py.

Param:Path to module file. Relative paths will be resolved relative to current working directory. Returns:fully qualified module name

bandit.core.utils.get_path_for_function(f)

Extend the current namespace path with an additional name

Take a namespace path (i.e., package.module.class) and extends it with an additional name (i.e., package.module.class.subclass). This is similar to how os.path.join works.

Parameters:

• base – (String) The base namespace path.
• name – (String) The new name to append to the base path.

Returns:

(String) A new namespace path resulting from combination of base and name.

bandit.core.utils.namespace_path_split(path)

Split the namespace path into a pair (head, tail).

Tail will be the last namespace path component and head will be everything leading up to that in the path. This is similar to os.path.split.

Parameters:path – (String) A namespace path. Returns:(String, String) A tuple where the first component is the base path and the second is the last path component.

bandit.core.utils.parse_ini_file(f_loc)

bandit.core.utils.warnings_formatter(message, category=<type 'exceptions.UserWarning'>, filename='', lineno=-1, line='')

Monkey patch for warnings.warn to suppress cruft output.
