Report Templates

Edit config/report_config.json to customize report structure:

Executive: High-level for C-suite (1-2 pages)
Technical: Detailed for engineers (10-50 pages)
Compliance: Regulatory alignment (5-15 pages)

Severity Rules

Edit config/severity_rules.json to adjust context-aware filtering:

json

{
  "innerHTML": {
    "patterns": [
      {
        "pattern": "innerHTML\\s*=\\s*['\"]\\s*['\"]",
        "adjusted_severity": "INFO",
        "reason": "Clearing content - safe operation"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Branding

Edit config/branding.json for custom appearance:

json

{
  "company_name": "Your Organization",
  "logo_path": "/path/to/logo.png",
  "primary_color": "#6366f1",
  "secondary_color": "#8b5cf6",
  "footer_text": "Confidential - Internal Use Only"
}

Input Format

The plugin expects JSON files from plugin-security-checker with this structure:

json

{
  "metadata": {
    "plugin_name": "example-plugin",
    "scan_date": "2025-10-29T10:30:00",
    "scanner_version": "3.0.0"
  },
  "findings": [
    {
      "severity": "CRITICAL",
      "category": "XSS",
      "description": "Potential cross-site scripting vulnerability",
      "code_snippet": "element.innerHTML = userInput;",
      "cvss_score": 9.1,
      "att&ck_techniques": ["T1059.006"],
      "owasp_categories": ["A03:2021-Injection"],
      "cwe_ids": ["CWE-79"]
    }
  ],
  "summary": {
    "total_findings": 10,
    "risk_score": 300,

Context-Aware Features

innerHTML Detection

innerHTML = '' → INFO (safe clearing)
innerHTML = static HTML → LOW (best practice: use textContent)
innerHTML = template → MEDIUM (verify escaping)
innerHTML = userInput → CRITICAL (real XSS risk)

eval() Detection

eval('static string') → MEDIUM (code smell)
eval(userInput) → CRITICAL (code execution risk)

File Operations

readFile('/static/path') → LOW (safe)
readFile(userPath) → CRITICAL (path traversal risk)

Plugin Type Context

Web UI plugins: Expected to use DOM manipulation (reduced penalties)
CLI plugins: DOM usage is suspicious (increased severity)

Integration with Plugin Security Checker

bash

# Step 1: Scan plugins
python3 plugin-security-checker/scripts/scan_plugin.py \
  my-plugin/ \
  --output scan_results.json

# Step 2: Generate report
python3 security-report-builder/scripts/generate_report.py \
  --input scan_results.json \
  --output report.html \
  --format html

Performance

Parsing: ~1,000 plugins/second
Analysis: ~500 findings/second
Report Generation:
- HTML: <5 seconds for 1,000 plugins
- PDF: <15 seconds for 1,000 plugins
- DOCX: <10 seconds for 1,000 plugins

Troubleshooting

WeasyPrint Installation Issues

bash

# macOS
brew install python3 cairo pango gdk-pixbuf libffi
pip install weasyprint

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-pip python3-cffi python3-brotli \
  libpango-1.0-0 libpangoft2-1.0-0 libcairo2
pip install weasyprint

# Windows
pip install weasyprint
# May require additional system dependencies

Missing Framework Mappings

If framework mappings are not found:

bash

# Copy from plugin-security-checker
cp plugin-security-checker/references/threat_mappings.json \
   security-report-builder/references/framework_mappings.json

Large Result Sets

For very large scan results (10,000+ plugins):

bash

# Filter by severity first
python3 security-report-builder/scripts/generate_report.py \
  --input results/ \
  --output report.pdf \
  --format pdf \
  --min-severity HIGH  # Reduces dataset

Best Practices

Always apply false positive filtering for cleaner reports
Use Executive template for management/C-suite audiences
Use Technical template for security engineers
Use Compliance template for auditors and regulators
Include company branding for customer-facing reports
Generate all three formats for maximum flexibility
Archive reports with scan dates for historical tracking
Review severity rules periodically based on your environment
Update framework mappings when MITRE releases new versions
Test report generation on sample data before production use

Examples

Example 1: Daily Security Report

bash

#!/bin/bash
# daily_security_report.sh

DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
SCAN_DIR="scan_results/${DATE}"
REPORT_DIR="reports/${DATE}"

# Generate HTML for quick viewing
python3 security-report-builder/scripts/generate_report.py \
  --input "${SCAN_DIR}" \
  --output "${REPORT_DIR}/daily_report.html" \
  --format html \
  --min-severity MEDIUM

# Email to security team (add email command)

Example 2: Executive Quarterly Report

bash

#!/bin/bash
# quarterly_executive_report.sh

python3 security-report-builder/scripts/generate_report.py \
  --input "quarterly_scans/${QUARTER}/" \

  --format pdf \
  --template executive \
  --min-severity HIGH \
  --branding config/executive_branding.json

Example 3: Compliance Audit Package

bash

#!/bin/bash
# compliance_audit_package.sh

AUDIT_DATE="2025-10-29"

# Generate all formats for audit
python3 security-report-builder/scripts/generate_report.py \
  --input "compliance_scans/${AUDIT_DATE}/" \
  --output "audit_package/${AUDIT_DATE}/" \
  --formats html,pdf,docx \
  --template compliance \
  --branding config/compliance_branding.json

# Package for auditors
tar -czf "audit_package_${AUDIT_DATE}.tar.gz" "audit_package/${AUDIT_DATE}/"
