Gitleaks configuration utilities

Gitleaks is a SAST tool for detecting and preventing hardcoded secrets like passwords, api keys, and tokens in git repos.

gitleaks-py provides a python library and CLI to manage Gitleaks rule configurations:

• Compare configurations using sort and diff
• Verify rules against fixture files containing secrets
• Merge rules from multiple files into a single file

Sort

Sort Gitleaks config file by case-insensitive rule ID.

python -m gitleaks_py.cli sort [OPTIONS] CONFIG_FILE

• CONFIG_FILE File or URL to sort

• -d, --dst Output destination file. Writes to std-out if omitted

Diff

Diff two config files.

python -m gitleaks_py.cli diff [OPTIONS] CONFIG_FILE [DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE]

• CONFIG_FILE File or URL to diff

• DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE File or URL to diff against. Defaults to gitleaks default config file

• -d, --dst Output destination file. Writes to std-out if omitted

• -o, --omissions Display omissions (rules from default config, not found in config)

• -a, --additions Display additions (rule from config, not found in default config)

Verify

Verify config file against secrets held in sample files.

python -m gitleaks_py.cli verify [OPTIONS] CONFIG_FILE

• CONFIG_FILE File or URL to verify

• -d, --dst Output destination file. Writes to std-out if omitted

• -s, --secrets Folder with secrets to test rules. Defaults to ./secrets

  Files should be in YAML named as the rule id. e.g. uk-gov-notify.yml

  The yaml should be structured as key-value pairs under two groupings, secrets and allowed. The key is an identifier for failures, and the value contains the secret or allowed value to be tested. e.g.

secrets:
  api-key: "gitleakstest-af3bb117-d149-4b23-ab1d-8d19ab184094-68a09f80-1f89-4d98-bd9e-ec431e970940"
  api-key-upper: "GITLEAKSTEST-AF3BB117-D149-4B23-AB1D-8D19AB184094-68A09F80-1F89-4D98-BD9E-EC431E970940"
  api-key-no-delim: "gitleakstest-af3bb117d1494b23ab1d8d19ab18409468a09f801f894d98bd9eec431e970940"
allowed:
  test-api-key: "gitleakstest-aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa"

When allowing patterns for test data, choose something that is obviously not a real secret, such as all letter 'a'. The chances of this being generated in production should be low.

Merge

Merge multiple config files into one

python -m gitleaks_py.cli merge [OPTIONS] [CONFIG_FILES]...

• CONFIG_FILES A space separated list of files to merge. Glob patterns may be used. e.g. toml/*.toml

• -t, --title Output config title. Joins titles from files if omitted

• -d, --dst Output destination file. Writes to std-out if omitted
