Known Vulnerabilities


snyk/broker

Snyk Broker proxies access between snyk.io and your Git repositories, such as GitHub Enterprise, GitHub.com and Bitbucket Server. Snyk Broker can also be used to enable a secure connection with your on-premise Jira deployment.

The Broker server and client establish an applicative tunnel, proxying requests from snyk.io to the Git (fetching manifest files from monitored repositories), and vice versa (webhooks posted by the Git).

The Broker client runs within the user's internal network, keeping sensitive data such as Git tokens within the network perimeter. The applicative tunnel scans and adds only relevant requests to an approved list, narrowing down the access permissions to the bare minimum required for Snyk to actively monitor a repository.

Usage

The Broker client is published as a set of Docker images, each configured for a specific Git. Standard and custom configuration is performed with environment variables as described below, per integration type.

GitHub.com

To use the Broker client with GitHub.com, run docker pull snyk/broker:github-com. The following environment variables are mandatory to configure the Broker client:

  • BROKER_TOKEN - the Snyk Broker token, obtained from your Snyk Org settings view (app.snyk.io).
  • GITHUB_TOKEN - a personal access token with full repo, read:org and admin:repo_hook scopes.
  • PORT - the local port at which the Broker client accepts connections. Default is 7341.
  • BROKER_CLIENT_URL - the full URL of the Broker client as it will be accessible by GitHub.com webhooks, such as http://my.broker.client:7341

Command-line arguments

You can run the Docker container by providing the relevant configuration:

docker run --restart=always \
           -p 8000:8000 \
           -e BROKER_TOKEN=secret-broker-token \
           -e GITHUB_TOKEN=secret-github-token \
           -e PORT=8000 \
           -e BROKER_CLIENT_URL=http://my.broker.client:8000 \
       snyk/broker:github-com

Monitoring

Healthcheck

The Broker exposes an endpoint at /healthcheck, which can be used to monitor the health of the running application. This endpoint responds with status code 200 OK when the internal request is successful, and returns { ok: true } in the response body.

In the case of the Broker client, this endpoint also reports on the status of the Broker websocket connection. If the websocket connection is not open, this endpoint responds with status code 500 Internal Server Error and { ok: false } in the response body.

To change the location of the healthcheck endpoint, you can specify an alternative path via an environment variable:

ENV BROKER_HEALTHCHECK_PATH /path/to/healthcheck

Systemcheck

The Broker client exposes an endpoint at /systemcheck, which can be used to validate the brokered service (Git or the like) connectivity and credentials. This endpoint causes the Broker client to make a request to a preconfigured URL, and report on the success of the request. The supported configuration is:

  • BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_URL - the URL to which the request will be made.
  • BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_AUTHORIZATION_HEADER - [optional] the Authorization header value of the request. Mutually exclusive with BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_BASIC_AUTH.
  • BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_BASIC_AUTH - [optional] the basic auth credentials (username:password) to be base64 encoded and placed in the Authorization header value of the request. Mutually exclusive with BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_AUTHORIZATION_HEADER.
  • BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_METHOD - [optional] the HTTP method of the request (default is GET).
  • BROKER_CLIENT_VALIDATION_TIMEOUT_MS - [optional] the request timeout in milliseconds (default is 5000 ms).

This endpoint responds with status code 200 OK when the internal request is successful, and returns { ok: true } in the response body. If the internal request fails, this endpoint responds with status code 500 Internal Server Error and { ok: false } in the response body.

To change the location of the systemcheck endpoint, you can specify an alternative path via an environment variable:

ENV BROKER_SYSTEMCHECK_PATH /path/to/systemcheck

Logging

By default the log level of the Broker is set to INFO. All SCM responses regardless of HTTP status code will be logged by the Broker client. The following settings can be set in your environment variables to alter the logging behaviour:

Key Default Notes
LOG_LEVEL info Set to "debug" for all logs
LOG_ENABLE_BODY false Set to "true" to include the response body in the Client logs

Advanced Configuration

HTTPS

The Broker client runs an HTTP server by default. It can be configured to run an HTTPS server for local connections. This requires an SSL certificate and a private key to be provided to the docker container at runtime.

For example, if your certificate files are found locally at ./private/broker.crt and ./private/broker.key, provide these files to the docker container by mounting the folder and using the HTTPS_CERT and HTTPS_KEY environment variables:

docker run --restart=always \
           -p 8000:8000 \
           -e BROKER_TOKEN=secret-broker-token \
           -e GITHUB_TOKEN=secret-github-token \
           -e PORT=8000 \
           -e HTTPS_CERT=/private/broker.crt \
           -e HTTPS_KEY=/private/broker.key \
           -e BROKER_CLIENT_URL=https://my.broker.client:8000 \
           -v /local/path/to/private:/private \
       snyk/broker:github-com

Note that BROKER_CLIENT_URL now has the HTTPS scheme.

Git with an internal certificate

By default, the Broker client establishes HTTPS connections to the Git. If your Git is serving an internal certificate (signed by your own CA), you can provide the CA certificate to the Broker client.

For example, if your CA certificate is at ./private/ca.cert.pem, provide it to the docker container by mounting the folder and using the CA_CERT environment variable:

docker run --restart=always \
           -p 8000:8000 \
           -e BROKER_TOKEN=secret-broker-token \
           -e BITBUCKET_USERNAME=username \
           -e BITBUCKET_PASSWORD=password \
           -e BITBUCKET=your.bitbucket-server.domain.com \
           -e BITBUCKET_API=your.bitbucket-server.domain.com/rest/api/1.0 \
           -e PORT=8000 \
           -e CA_CERT=/private/ca.cert.pem \
           -v /local/path/to/private:/private \
       snyk/broker:bitbucket-server

Custom approved-listing filter

The default approved-listing filter supports the bare minimum to operate on all repositories supported by Snyk. In order to customize the approved-listing filter, create the default one locally by installing snyk-broker and running broker init [Git type]. The created accept.json is the default filter for the chosen Git. Place the file in a separate folder such as ./private/accept.json, and provide it to the docker container by mounting the folder and using the ACCEPT environment variable:

docker run --restart=always \
           -p 8000:8000 \
           -e BROKER_TOKEN=secret-broker-token \
           -e GITHUB_TOKEN=secret-github-token \
           -e PORT=8000 \
           -e BROKER_CLIENT_URL=https://my.broker.client:8000 \
           -e ACCEPT=/private/accept.json
           -v /local/path/to/private:/private \
       snyk/broker:github-com

Types of Filtering

By Header

Add a validation block with the following key/values:

Key Value Value Type Example
header The name of the header you wish to filter on. If this is defined then the named header must explicitly exist on the request otherwise it will be blocked String accept
values The header value must match one of the defined strings Array<String> ["application/vnd.github.v4.sha"]

For example, to only allow the SHA Media Type accept header for requests to the GitHub Commits API you would add the following:

{
    "method": "GET",
    "path": "/repos/:name/:repo/commits/:ref",
    "origin": "https://${GITHUB_TOKEN}@${GITHUB_API}",
    "valid": [
        {
            "header": "accept",
            "values": ["application/vnd.github.v4.sha"]
        }
    ]
}

Mounting Secrets

Sometime it is required to load sensitive configurations (GitHub/Snyk's token) from a file instead from environment variables. Broker is using dotenv to load the config, so the process is relatively simple:

  • Create a file named .env and put your sensitive config there:
  • Mount this file (for example, using Kubernetes secret). Mount the file to be somewhere like /broker.
  • Change the workdir of the docker image to be /broker/ Example of such file is located in your broker container at $HOME/.env

Troubleshooting

Support of big manifest files (> 1Mb) for GitHub / GitHub Enterprise

One of the reason for failing of open Fix/Upgrade PRs or PR/recurring tests might be fetching big manifest files (> 1Mb) failure. To address this issue, additional Blob API endpoint should be whitelisted in accept.json:

  • should be in private array
{
    "//": "used to get given manifest file",
    "method": "GET",
    "path": "/repos/:owner/:repo/git/blobs/:sha",
    "origin": "https://${GITHUB_TOKEN}@${GITHUB_API}"
}

Note To ensure the maximum possible security, we do not enable this rule by default, as usage of this endpoint means that the Snyk platform can theoretically access all files in this repository, as the path does not include specific allowed file names.
