Usage

Create a VEX Document

This example creates a Document using the public constructor.

Document document = new Document("Spring Builds <spring-builds@users.noreply.github.com>");
document.setRole("Project Release Bot");

Product product = new Product(URI.create("pkg:oci/git@sha256:23a264e6e429852221a963e9f17338ba3f5796dc7086e46439a6f4482cf6e0cb"));
product.setIdentifiers(new Identifiers(new PackageURL("pkg:oci/git@sha256:23a264e6e429852221a963e9f17338ba3f5796dc7086e46439a6f4482cf6e0cb")));

Hashes hashes = new Hashes();
hashes.setSha256("e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855");
product.setHashes(hashes);

Vulnerability vulnerability = new Vulnerability("CVE-2021-44228");
vulnerability.setId(URI.create("https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-44228"));
vulnerability.setDescription("Remote code injection in Log4j");
vulnerability.setAliases(Collections.singletonList("GHSA-jfh8-c2jp-5v3q"));

Statement statement = new Statement(Collections.singletonList(product), vulnerability, Status.not_affected);
statement.setJustification(Justification.vulnerable_code_not_in_execute_path);
statement.setImpactStatement("Spring Boot users are only affected by this vulnerability if they have switched the " +
        "default logging system to Log4J2. The log4j-to-slf4j and log4j-api jars that we include in spring-boot-starter-logging " +
        "cannot be exploited on their own. Only applications using log4j-core and including user input in log messages are vulnerable.");
document.getStatements().add(statement);

The document can be serialized to JSON using the toJson convenience method that delegates to a pre-configured jackson-databind ObjectMapper, or you can use your own ObjectMapper. Additionally, any framework that uses jackson-databind, (e.g.: Spring Web MVC) can be used to serialize a Document.

The serialization process includes validation to only produce valid OpenVEX 0.2.0 JSON.

The Document above will serialize to the following JSON:

}

Note the defaults:

  • @context defaults to https://openvex.dev/ns/v0.2.0
  • @id is generated based on the "canonical hash" algorithm
  • timestamp defaults to now
  • version defaults to 1
  • tooling defaults to "jvex/0.1.0"
Consume a VEX Document

Deserialize JSON using jackson-databind or a framework that uses it (e.g.: Spring Web MVC). The deserialization process includes validation to only accept valid OpenVEX 0.2.0 JSON. It fails if the JSON is invalid according to the spec (i.e.: MUSTs, required fields, types, conditional logic, etc.)

Document from(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
    ObjectReader reader = new ObjectMapper().registerModule(new JavaTimeModule()).reader();
    return reader.readValue(inputStream, Document.class);
}
@PostMapping
public ResponseEntity<Void> create(@RequestBody Document document) {
    // ...
}
Add a Statement to a Document

A statement is added to a Document by invoking getStatements().add() on the Document instance.

Adding a statement to a new instance has no side effects, the statement is added to the document without a timestamp and therefore inherits the document's timestamp.

Adding a statement to deserialized instances has side effects to implement OpenVEX 0.2.0 "Updating Statements with Inherited Data" use-case.
