OWASP-Benchmark/BenchmarkJava
Aug 2015 - Aug 2015
OWASP Benchmark is a test suite designed to verify the speed and accuracy of software vulnerability detection tools. A fully runnable web app written in Java, it supports analysis by Static (SAST), Dynamic (DAST), and Runtime (IAST) tools that support Java. The idea is that since it is fully runnable and all the vulnerabilities are actually exploitable, it’s a fair test for any kind of vulnerability detection tool. For more details on this project, please see the OWASP Benchmark Project home page.

Contributions summary:G's contributions focused on improving the integration of SonarQube for static analysis within the OWASP Benchmark project. They modified build scripts (runSonarQube.sh and runSonarQube.bat) to include SonarQube analysis arguments and implement a wait loop to ensure the analysis report is available. They also updated Java code (SonarReader.java and WriteTime.java) to enhance how the project interacts with SonarQube, including paginated retrieval of issues and adjustments to data parsing. These changes suggest a focus on automating and integrating security analysis tools.
