+ (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
39
+
40
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
41
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
42
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
43
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
44
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
45

46
+ the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
47
+
48
+ "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including

66
+ 2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
67
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
68
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
69
+ copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

76
+ (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
77
+ use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,

79
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
80
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
81
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
82
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
83
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
84
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
85
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
86
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
87
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
88
+
89
+ 4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
90
+ Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
91
+ modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
92
+ meet the following conditions:
93
+
94
+ (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
95
+ Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
96
+
97
+ (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
98
+ stating that You changed the files; and
99
+
100
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
101
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
102
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
103
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
104
+ the Derivative Works; and
105
+
106
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
107
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
108
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
109
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
110
+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
111
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
112
+ as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
113
+ documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
114
+ within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
115
+ wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
116
+ of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
117
+ do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
118
+ notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
119
+ or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
120
+ that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
121
+ as modifying the License.
122
+
123
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
124
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
125
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
126
+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
127
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
128
+ the conditions stated in this License.
129
+
130
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
131
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
132
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
133
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
134
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
135
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
136
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
137
+
138
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
139
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
140
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
141
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
142
+
143
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
144
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
145
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
146
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
147
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
148
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
149
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
150
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
151
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
152
+
153
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
154
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
155
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
156
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
157
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
158
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
159
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
163
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
164
+
165
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
166
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
167
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
168
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
169
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
170
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
171
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
172
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
173
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
174
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

42
+
43
+ Reusable AppSec policy-as-code rules for secure application review, CI quality gates,
44
+ and manual evidence collection.
45
+
46
+ This initial pack is intentionally generic. It does not contain product names,
47
+ tenant identifiers, customer data, secrets, internal endpoints, or environment-specific
48
+ configuration.
49
+
50
+ ## What Is Included
51
+
52
+ - A short technical specification in `TECHNICAL_SPEC.md` and a direction summary in
53
+ `ROADMAP.md`.
54
+ - A JSON Schema rule contract in `src/appsec_rules_pack/schemas/appsec-rule.schema.json`.
55
+ - A baseline YAML rules pack of 19 generic rules in `rules/appsec-baseline.yaml`,
56
+ covering authentication, authorization, input validation, injection (including
57
+ output-encoding/XSS), SSRF, secrets, file handling, logging, dependency risk,
58
+ configuration, session hardening, CSRF, webhook/message integrity, excessive data
59
+ exposure, mass assignment, open redirect, and rate limiting. Every rule ships an
60
+ explicit compliant and violating code example.
61
+ - A Python 3.12 validator with a Typer CLI supporting `--version`,
62
+ `--fail-on-warnings`, `--require-examples`, and `--format json` output for CI, plus
63
+ derivation-only `export index`, `export semgrep`, `export sarif`, and `report coverage`
64
+ subcommands.
65
+ - Derived, drift-tested artifacts under `exports/`: a machine-readable rule index
66
+ (`appsec-baseline.index.json`), a clearly labeled NON-runnable Semgrep scaffold, and a
67
+ SARIF 2.1.0 rule catalog (empty results). Derivation only — the validator stays
68
+ engine-agnostic and never executes rules (ADR-0001).
69
+ - Unit tests and pass/fail/warn fixtures for valid packs, invalid schema shape,
70
+ enum/type/additionalProperties failures, duplicate rule IDs, cross-file
71
+ duplicate IDs, exception-window warnings, exception-policy contradictions,
72
+ malformed framework mapping IDs, and sensitive-value detection.
73
+ - A 95% coverage gate plus a hardened CI/CD surface: a build/lint/test workflow (with
74
+ separate jobs running the suite on Ubuntu and Windows, and on Python 3.13), a security
75
+ pipeline (Semgrep, CodeQL, Bandit, Trivy, KICS, pip-audit, Gitleaks, Dependency Review,
76
+ actionlint), and OpenSSF Scorecard analysis. The build/lint/test, cross-platform, and
77
+ security jobs are required status checks on `master`.
78
+ - Architecture decision records in [`docs/adr/`](https://github.com/lucashgrifoni/AppSec-Rules-Pack/blob/master/docs/adr/README.md), including the two that
79
+ define this project's boundary: the validator stays engine-agnostic (ADR-0001) and the CI
80
+ gate consumes its JSON rather than embedding enforcement (ADR-0004).
81
+ - Contribution guidance for safe rule additions, a code of conduct, and issue/PR
82
+ templates.
83
+ - A CI integration template in `examples/`.

151
+
152
+ ## Installation
153
+
154
+ Install the published package from PyPI:
155
+
156
+ ```bash
157
+ pip install appsec-rules-pack
158
+ ```
159
+
160
+ This installs the `appsec-rules` console script. Pin to a reviewed version
161
+ (for example `appsec-rules-pack==0.3.1`) when using it in a CI quality gate.
162
+
163
+ **What the distribution contains:** the validator, the CLI, and the JSON Schema. It does
164
+ not ship a rules pack — the CLI validates whatever path you point it at.
165
+
166
+ To get the baseline pack of 19 rules, either take the version-pinned copy attached to each
167
+ GitHub Release:
168
+
169
+ ```bash
170
+ curl -LO https://github.com/lucashgrifoni/AppSec-Rules-Pack/releases/download/v0.3.1/appsec-baseline.yaml
171
+ ```
172
+
173
+ or copy [`rules/appsec-baseline.yaml`](https://github.com/lucashgrifoni/AppSec-Rules-Pack/blob/master/rules/appsec-baseline.yaml) from this repository.
174
+ You can also write your own pack from the example below.
175
+
176
+ ### From source (development)
177
+
178
+ ```powershell
179
+ python -m venv .venv
180
+ .\.venv\Scripts\python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
181
+ ```
182
+
183
+ On macOS/Linux:
184
+
185
+ ```bash
186
+ python -m venv .venv
187
+ .venv/bin/python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
188
+ ```
189
+
190
+ If the dependencies already exist in the active Python environment, the validator can
191
+ also be run directly with `PYTHONPATH=src`.
192
+
193
+ ## Your First Rules Pack
194
+
195
+ A pack is a `pack` block plus one or more `rules`. This is a complete, valid minimal pack —
196
+ copy it, run `appsec-rules validate` on it, then grow it. Every field shown is required; the
197
+ full contract is in
198
+ [`appsec-rule.schema.json`](https://github.com/lucashgrifoni/AppSec-Rules-Pack/blob/master/src/appsec_rules_pack/schemas/appsec-rule.schema.json), and the
199
+ 19 baseline rules in [`rules/appsec-baseline.yaml`](https://github.com/lucashgrifoni/AppSec-Rules-Pack/blob/master/rules/appsec-baseline.yaml) are worked
200
+ examples.

+
260
+ ## Usage
261
+
262
+ The examples below use `rules/appsec-baseline.yaml`, which exists in **this repository**.
263
+ If you installed from PyPI, point the CLI at your own rules file or directory instead.
264
+
265
+ Validate the baseline rules pack:
266
+
267
+ ```bash
268
+ python -m appsec_rules_pack validate rules/appsec-baseline.yaml
269
+ ```
270
+
271
+ Validate every `.yaml` or `.yml` rules pack under a directory:
272
+
273
+ ```bash
274
+ python -m appsec_rules_pack validate rules
275
+ ```
276
+
277
+ Or, after installation, use the console script:
278
+
279
+ ```bash
280
+ appsec-rules validate rules/appsec-baseline.yaml
281
+ ```
282
+
283
+ Fail on warnings as well as errors:
284
+
285
+ ```bash
286
+ appsec-rules validate rules/appsec-baseline.yaml --fail-on-warnings
287
+ ```
288
+
289
+ Warn when an enabled rule ships no compliant/violating examples (opt-in):
290
+
291
+ ```bash
292
+ appsec-rules validate rules --require-examples
293
+ ```
294
+
295
+ Emit machine-readable JSON for CI pipelines:
296
+
297
+ ```bash
298
+ appsec-rules validate rules --format json
299
+ ```
300
+
301
+ Show the installed version:
302
+
303
+ ```bash
304
+ appsec-rules --version
305
+ ```
306
+
307
+ Derive a machine-readable rule index (JSON) for downstream tooling. This only reads
308
+ and derives pack metadata; it does not execute rules or emit findings:
309
+
310
+ ```bash
311
+ appsec-rules export index rules/appsec-baseline.yaml
312
+ appsec-rules export index rules/appsec-baseline.yaml --output exports/appsec-baseline.index.json
313
+ ```
314
+
315
+ The JSON report contains a `summary` object (`files`, `rules`, `errors`, `warnings`,
316
+ `ok`) and a `files` array with per-file issues (`level`, `path`, `message`). The exit
317
+ code is non-zero when validation fails, matching the text output.
318
+
319
+ ## Use It In Your CI
320
+
321
+ `examples/README.md` contains a GitHub Actions template for installing the pack from
322
+ PyPI, validating a rules directory, and failing the build on errors (and optionally
323
+ warnings). Pin the install to a reviewed release version before enabling it as a
324
+ quality gate.
325
+
326
+ ## Rule Pack Model
327
+
328
+ Rules are advisory by default. Each rule defines:
329
+
330
+ - a stable ID and severity;
331
+ - the target surface and AppSec category;
332
+ - framework mappings such as OWASP ASVS 5.0, OWASP API Security Top 10, OWASP Top 10:2025
333
+ (optional), CWE, and NIST SSDF;
334
+ - expected evidence and review signals;
335
+ - match guidance for reviewers or automation;
336
+ - remediation and validation guidance;
337
+ - exception metadata requirements;
338
+ - a compliant and a violating code example with a short explanation.
339
+
340
+ The initial version is optimized for reviewability and deterministic validation, not for
341
+ deep scanner-specific matching.
342
+
343
+ ## Validation
344
+
345
+ ```bash
346
+ python -m pytest
347
+ PYTHONPATH=src python -m appsec_rules_pack validate rules
348
+ ```
349
+
350
+ The validator checks JSON Schema compliance, duplicate rule IDs within a file and across
351
+ a validated directory, exception-window limits, exception-policy contradictions
352
+ (for example, a disallowed exception that still declares a window), malformed framework
353
+ mapping identifiers (CWE, OWASP API Top 10 2023, OWASP ASVS, NIST SSDF), and basic
354
+ sensitive-value patterns. Directory validation reports each issue with the relative file
355
+ path, schema path, severity, and a concise remediation-oriented message.
