Azure Plugin

Contextual software security microtraining for issues and pull requests, powered by the SecureFlag knowledge base.

This plugin adds a new page to issues that mention security vulnerabilities, with a recommended lab and information from the SecureFlag Knowledge Base. Each reply includes an overview of everything a developer needs to know in order to understand and remediate a given type of vulnerability, including example code!

We know that not all developers are security professionals, so CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) numbers for common vulnerabilities are mapped to the Knowledge Base, providing an easier to ingest description of the vulnerability.

Installation

Access the app via the Visual Studio Marketplace here .

Click the Get it free button. From there, select the organization on which to install the plugin and click “Install”. The plugin is available for free.

Usage

Simply mention a software vulnerability by name or CWE number in an issue, in either the title or body, and then open the SecureFlag page. Common abbreviations are supported as well.



For example:
Quote
Hey, there's a SQLi vulnerability here. Please fix ASAP.
Quote
Thanks for spotting this. This pull request fixes the vuln mentioned in issue 123. CWE 89.
Quote
Hm, there is another sql injection vulnerability. Please audit all HTML forms.


All the above leads to the below response:
