CPG Generator is a python cli tool to generate Code Property Graph for multiple languages. The generated CPG can be directly imported to Joern or uploaded to Qwiet.AI for analysis.

Installation

cpggen is available as a PyPI package or as a container image.

pip install cpggen

Bundled container image

docker pull ghcr.io/appthreat/cpggen
# podman pull ghcr.io/appthreat/cpggen

Or use the nightly to always get the latest joern and tools.

docker pull ghcr.io/appthreat/cpggen:nightly
# podman pull ghcr.io/appthreat/cpggen:nightly

Usage

To auto detect the language from the current directory and generate CPG.

cpggen

To specify input and output directory.

cpggen -i <src directory> -o <CPG directory or file name>

You can even pass a git url as source

cpggen -i https://github.com/HooliCorp/vulnerable-aws-koa-app -o /tmp/cpg

To specify language type.

cpggen -i <src directory> -o <CPG directory or file name> -l java

Container based invocation

docker run --rm -it -v /tmp:/tmp -v $(pwd):/app:rw --cpus=4 --memory=16g -t ghcr.io/appthreat/cpggen cpggen -i <src directory> -o <CPG directory or file name>

Artifacts produced

Upon successful completion, cpggen would produce the following artifacts in the directory specified under out_dir

• {name}-{lang}-cpg.bin.zip - Code Property Graph for the given language type
• {name}-{lang}-cpg.bom.xml - SBoM in CycloneDX XML format
• {name}-{lang}-cpg.bom.json - SBoM in CycloneDX json format
• {name}-{lang}-cpg.manifest.json - A json file listing the generated artifacts and the invocation commands

Server mode

cpggen can run in server mode.

cpggen --server

You can invoke the endpoint /cpg to generate CPG.

curl "http://127.0.0.1:7072/cpg?src=/Volumes/Work/sandbox/vulnerable-aws-koa-app&out_dir=/tmp/cpg_out&lang=js"

curl "http://127.0.0.1:7072/cpg?url=https://github.com/HooliCorp/vulnerable-aws-koa-app&out_dir=/tmp/cpg_out&lang=js"
