            # uv-secure

Scan your uv.lock file for dependencies with known vulnerabilities.

## Scope and Limitations

This tool will scan PyPi dependencies listed in your uv.lock files (or uv generated
requirements.txt files) and check for known vulnerabilities listed against those
packages and versions in the PyPi json API. Since it is making network requests for each
PyPi package this can be a relatively slow tool to run, and it will only work in test
environments with access to the PyPi API. Currently only packages sourced from PyPi are
tested - there's no support for custom packages or packages stored in private PyPi
servers. See roadmap below for my plans for future enhancements.

I don't intend uv-secure to ever create virtual environments or do dependency
resolution - the plan is to leave that all to uv since it does that so well and just
target lock files and fully pinned and dependency resolved requirements.txt files). If
you want a tool that does dependency resolution on requirements.txt files for first
order and unpinned dependencies I recommend using
[pip-audit](https://pypi.org/project/pip-audit/) instead.

## Disclaimer

This tool is still in an alpha phase and although it's unlikely to lose functionality
arguments may get changed with no deprecation warning. I'm still in the process of
refining the command line arguments and configuration behaviour.

## Installation

I recommend installing uv-secure as a uv tool or with pipx as it's intended to be used
as a CLI tool, and it probably only makes sense to have one version installed globally.

Installing with uv tool as follows:

```shell
uv tool install uv-secure
```

or with pipx:

```shell
pipx install uv-secure
```

you can optionally install uv-secure as a development dependency in a virtual
environment.

## Optional Dependencies

uv-secure uses highly asynchronous code to request multiple API responses or file opens
concurrently. You can install uvloop on Linux/Mac or winloop on Windows to speed up the
asynchronous event loop (at the expense of debuggability if you want to develop
uv-secure yourself). Also note, winloop is a relatively young package and may give you
some stability issues on particular versions of Python

If you want to install the optional dependency with uv do it like this:

```shell
uv tool install uv-secure --with uvloop
```

or with pipx like this:

```powershell
pipx install uv-secure
pipx inject uv-secure winloop
```

uv-secure will automatically use uvloop or winloop if it finds them in the same
environment as itself.

## Usage

After installation, you can run uv-secure --help to see the options.

```text
>> uv-secure --help

 Usage: run.py [OPTIONS] [FILE_PATHS]...

 Parse uv.lock files, check vulnerabilities, and display summary.

## Configuration

uv-secure can read configuration from a toml file specified with the config option. E.g.

### uv-secure.toml / .uv-secure.toml

```toml
ignore_vulnerabilities = ["VULN-123"]
aliases = true # Defaults to false
desc = true # Defaults to false

[cache_settings]
cache_path = "~/.uv-secure" # Defaults to ~/.cache/uv-secure if not set
ttl_seconds = 60.0 # Defaults to one day (86400 seconds) if not set
disable_cache = false # Defaults to false if not set
```

### pyproject.toml

```toml
[tool.uv-secure]
ignore_vulnerabilities = ["VULN-123"]
aliases = true # Defaults to false
desc = true # Defaults to false

[tool.uv-secure.cache_settings]
cache_path = "~/.uv-secure" # Defaults to ~/.cache/uv-secure if not set
ttl_seconds = 60.0 # Defaults to one day (86400 seconds) if not set
disable_cache = false # Defaults to false if not set
```

### File Caching

File caching is enabled by default to speed up subsequent runs of uv-secure. By default,
cache results are saved to:

```shell
~/.cache/uv-secure
```

or on Windows

```powershell
%USERPROFILE%\.cache\uv-secure
```

This can be configured to another location if you wish.

#### Cache Performance on Windows

I'm unsure about other operating systems, but I found on Windows unless I excluded the
cache directory from the _Virus & threat protection settings_ the file caching only made
a minimal performance improvement on subsequent runs (whereas it can speed up subsequent
runs over 50% if you add the cache directory as an exclusion).

### Configuration discovery

If the ignore and config options are left unset uv-secure will search for configuration
files above each uv.lock file and use the deepest found pyproject.toml, uv-secure.toml,
or .uv-secure.toml for the configuration when processing that specific uv.lock file.
uv-secure tries to follow
[Ruff's configuration file discovery strategy](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/configuration/#config-file-discovery)

Similar to Ruff, pyproject.toml files that don't contain uv-secure configuration are
ignored. Currently, if multiple uv-secure configuration files are defined in the same
directory upstream from a uv.lock file the configurations are used in this precedence
order:

1. .uv-secure.toml
2. uv-secure.toml
3. pyproject.toml (assuming it contains uv-secure configuration)

So .uv-secure.toml files are used first, then uv-secure.toml files, and last
pyproject.toml files with uv-secure config (only if you define all three in the same
directory though - which would be a bit weird - I may make this a warning or error in
future).

Like Ruff configuration files aren't hierarchically combined, just the nearest / highest
precedence configuration is used. If you set a specific configuration file that will
take precedence and hierarchical configuration file discovery is disabled. If you do
specify a configuration options directly, e.g. pass the  --ignore option that will
overwrite the ignore_vulnerabilities setting of all found or manually specified
configuration files.

## Pre-commit Usage

uv-secure can be run as a pre-commit hook by adding this configuration to your
.pre-commit-config.yaml file:

```yaml
  - repo: https://github.com/owenlamont/uv-secure
    rev: 0.7.1
    hooks:
      - id: uv-secure
```

You should run:

```shell
pre-commit autoupdate
```

Or manually check the latest release and update the _rev_ value accordingly.

## Roadmap

Below are some ideas (in no particular order) I have for improving uv-secure:

- Add package metadata checks, e.g. age of most recent release threshold
- Package for conda on conda-forge
- Add rate limiting on how hard the PyPi json API is hit to query package
  vulnerabilities (this hasn't been a problem yet, but I suspect may be for uv.lock
  files with many dependencies)
- Add support for other lock file formats beyond uv.lock
- Support some of the other output file formats pip-audit does
- Consider adding support for scanning dependencies from the current venv
- Add a severity threshold option for reporting vulnerabilities against
- Add an autofix option for updating package versions with known vulnerabilities if
  there is a more recent fixed version
- Investigate supporting private PyPi repos
- Add translations to support languages beyond English (not sure of the merits of this
  given most vulnerability reports appear to be only in English but happy to take
  feedback on this)

## Running in Development

Running uv-secure as a developer is pretty straight-forward if you have uv installed.
Just check out the repo and from a terminal in the repo root directory run:

```shell
uv sync --dev
```

To create and sync the virtual environment.

You can run the tests with:

```shell
uv run pytest
```

Or run the package entry module directly with:

```shell
uv run src/uv_secure/run.py . --aliases
```

### Debugging

If you want to run and debug uv-secure in an IDE like PyCharm or VSCode select the
virtual environment in the local .venv directory uv would have created after calling
uv sync.

#### PyCharm Warning

With PyCharm debugging relies on pip and setuptools being installed which aren't
installed by default, so I request PyCharm _Install packaging tool_ in the
_Python Interpreter_ settings (I may just add these in future are dev dependencies to
reduce the friction if this causes others too much pain). I have also encountered some
test failures on Windows if you use winloop with setuptools and pip - so you probably do
want to remove winloop if debugging in that environment if you added it.

#### Debugging Async Code

Given uv-secure is often IO bound waiting on API responses or file reads I've tried to
make it as asynchronous as I can. uv-secure also uses uvloop and winloop if installed
which should be more performant than the vanilla asyncio event loop - but they don't
play nice with Python debuggers. If you intend to do debugging I suggest leaving them
out of the virtual environment. By default, winloop or uvloop won't be installed the
repo venv unless you explicitly add them.

## Related Work and Motivation

I created this package as I wanted a dependency vulnerability scanner, but I wasn't
completely happy with the options that were available. I use
[uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) and wanted something that works with uv.lock files but
neither of the main package options I found were as frictionless as I had hoped:

- [pip-audit](https://pypi.org/project/pip-audit/) uv-secure is very much based on doing
  the same vulnerability check that pip-audit does using PyPi's json API. pip-audit
  however only works with requirements.txt so to make it work with uv projects you need
  additional steps to convert your uv.lock file to a requirements.txt then you need to
  run pip-audit with the --no-deps and/or --no-pip options to stop pip-audit trying to
  create a virtual environment from the requirements.txt file. In short, you can use
  pip-audit instead of uv-secure albeit with a bit more friction for uv projects. I hope
  to add extra features beyond what pip-audit does or optimise things better (given the
  more specialised case of only needing to support uv.lock files) in the future.
- [safety](https://pypi.org/project/safety/) also doesn't work with uv.lock file out of
  the box, it does apparently work statically without needing to build a virtual
  environment but it does require you to create an account on the
  [safety site](https://platform.safetycli.com/). They have some limited free account
  but require a paid account to use seriously. If you already have a safety account
  though there is a [uv-audit](https://pypi.org/project/uv-audit/) package that wraps
  safety to support scanning uv.lock files.
- [Python Security PyCharm Plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13609-python-security)
  Lastly I was inspired by Anthony Shaw's Python Security plugin - which does CVE
  dependency scanning within PyCharm.

I build uv-secure because I wanted a CLI tool I could run with pre-commit. Statically
analyse the uv.lock file without needing to create a virtual environment, and finally
doesn't require you to create (and pay for) an account with any service.

## Contributing

Please raise issues for any bugs you discover with uv-secure. If practical and not too
sensitive sharing the problem uv.lock file would help me reproduce and fix these issues.

I welcome PRs for minor fixes and documentation tweaks. If you'd like to make more
substantial contributions please reach out by email / social media / or raise an
improvement issue to discuss first to make sure our plans are aligned before creating
any large / time-expensive PRs.

E.g.\n\n### uv-secure.toml / .uv-secure.toml\n\n```toml\nignore_vulnerabilities = [\"VULN-123\"]\naliases = true # Defaults to false\ndesc = true # Defaults to false\n\n[cache_settings]\ncache_path = \"~/.uv-secure\" # Defaults to ~/.cache/uv-secure if not set\nttl_seconds = 60.0 # Defaults to one day (86400 seconds) if not set\ndisable_cache = false # Defaults to false if not set\n```\n\n### pyproject.toml\n\n```toml\n[tool.uv-secure]\nignore_vulnerabilities = [\"VULN-123\"]\naliases = true # Defaults to false\ndesc = true # Defaults to false\n\n[tool.uv-secure.cache_settings]\ncache_path = \"~/.uv-secure\" # Defaults to ~/.cache/uv-secure if not set\nttl_seconds = 60.0 # Defaults to one day (86400 seconds) if not set\ndisable_cache = false # Defaults to false if not set\n```\n\n### File Caching\n\nFile caching is enabled by default to speed up subsequent runs of uv-secure. By default,\ncache results are saved to:\n\n```shell\n~/.cache/uv-secure\n```\n\nor on Windows\n\n```powershell\n%USERPROFILE%\\.cache\\uv-secure\n```\n\nThis can be configured to another location if you wish.\n\n#### Cache Performance on Windows\n\nI'm unsure about other operating systems, but I found on Windows unless I excluded the\ncache directory from the _Virus & threat protection settings_ the file caching only made\na minimal performance improvement on subsequent runs (whereas it can speed up subsequent\nruns over 50% if you add the cache directory as an exclusion).\n\n### Configuration discovery\n\nIf the ignore and config options are left unset uv-secure will search for configuration\nfiles above each uv.lock file and use the deepest found pyproject.toml, uv-secure.toml,\nor .uv-secure.toml for the configuration when processing that specific uv.lock file.\nuv-secure tries to follow\n[Ruff's configuration file discovery strategy](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/configuration/#config-file-discovery)\n\nSimilar to Ruff, pyproject.toml files that don't contain uv-secure configuration are\nignored. Currently, if multiple uv-secure configuration files are defined in the same\ndirectory upstream from a uv.lock file the configurations are used in this precedence\norder:\n\n1. .uv-secure.toml\n2. uv-secure.toml\n3. pyproject.toml (assuming it contains uv-secure configuration)\n\nSo .uv-secure.toml files are used first, then uv-secure.toml files, and last\npyproject.toml files with uv-secure config (only if you define all three in the same\ndirectory though - which would be a bit weird - I may make this a warning or error in\nfuture).\n\nLike Ruff configuration files aren't hierarchically combined, just the nearest / highest\nprecedence configuration is used. If you set a specific configuration file that will\ntake precedence and hierarchical configuration file discovery is disabled. If you do\nspecify a configuration options directly, e.g. pass the  --ignore option that will\noverwrite the ignore_vulnerabilities setting of all found or manually specified\nconfiguration files.\n\n## Pre-commit Usage\n\nuv-secure can be run as a pre-commit hook by adding this configuration to your\n.pre-commit-config.yaml file:\n\n```yaml\n  - repo: https://github.com/owenlamont/uv-secure\n    rev: 0.7.1\n    hooks:\n      - id: uv-secure\n```\n\nYou should run:\n\n```shell\npre-commit autoupdate\n```\n\nOr manually check the latest release and update the _rev_ value accordingly.\n\n## Roadmap\n\nBelow are some ideas (in no particular order) I have for improving uv-secure:\n\n- Add package metadata checks, e.g. age of most recent release threshold\n- Package for conda on conda-forge\n- Add rate limiting on how hard the PyPi json API is hit to query package\n  vulnerabilities (this hasn't been a problem yet, but I suspect may be for uv.lock\n  files with many dependencies)\n- Add support for other lock file formats beyond uv.lock\n- Support some of the other output file formats pip-audit does\n- Consider adding support for scanning dependencies from the current venv\n- Add a severity threshold option for reporting vulnerabilities against\n- Add an autofix option for updating package versions with known vulnerabilities if\n  there is a more recent fixed version\n- Investigate supporting private PyPi repos\n- Add translations to support languages beyond English (not sure of the merits of this\n  given most vulnerability reports appear to be only in English but happy to take\n  feedback on this)\n\n## Running in Development\n\nRunning uv-secure as a developer is pretty straight-forward if you have uv installed.\nJust check out the repo and from a terminal in the repo root directory run:\n\n```shell\nuv sync --dev\n```\n\nTo create and sync the virtual environment.\n\nYou can run the tests with:\n\n```shell\nuv run pytest\n```\n\nOr run the package entry module directly with:\n\n```shell\nuv run src/uv_secure/run.py . --aliases\n```\n\n### Debugging\n\nIf you want to run and debug uv-secure in an IDE like PyCharm or VSCode select the\nvirtual environment in the local .venv directory uv would have created after calling\nuv sync.\n\n#### PyCharm Warning\n\nWith PyCharm debugging relies on pip and setuptools being installed which aren't\ninstalled by default, so I request PyCharm _Install packaging tool_ in the\n_Python Interpreter_ settings (I may just add these in future are dev dependencies to\nreduce the friction if this causes others too much pain). I have also encountered some\ntest failures on Windows if you use winloop with setuptools and pip - so you probably do\nwant to remove winloop if debugging in that environment if you added it.\n\n#### Debugging Async Code\n\nGiven uv-secure is often IO bound waiting on API responses or file reads I've tried to\nmake it as asynchronous as I can. uv-secure also uses uvloop and winloop if installed\nwhich should be more performant than the vanilla asyncio event loop - but they don't\nplay nice with Python debuggers. If you intend to do debugging I suggest leaving them\nout of the virtual environment. By default, winloop or uvloop won't be installed the\nrepo venv unless you explicitly add them.\n\n## Related Work and Motivation\n\nI created this package as I wanted a dependency vulnerability scanner, but I wasn't\ncompletely happy with the options that were available. I use\n[uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) and wanted something that works with uv.lock files but\nneither of the main package options I found were as frictionless as I had hoped:\n\n- [pip-audit](https://pypi.org/project/pip-audit/) uv-secure is very much based on doing\n  the same vulnerability check that pip-audit does using PyPi's json API. pip-audit\n  however only works with requirements.txt so to make it work with uv projects you need\n  additional steps to convert your uv.lock file to a requirements.txt then you need to\n  run pip-audit with the --no-deps and/or --no-pip options to stop pip-audit trying to\n  create a virtual environment from the requirements.txt file. In short, you can use\n  pip-audit instead of uv-secure albeit with a bit more friction for uv projects. I hope\n  to add extra features beyond what pip-audit does or optimise things better (given the\n  more specialised case of only needing to support uv.lock files) in the future.\n- [safety](https://pypi.org/project/safety/) also doesn't work with uv.lock file out of\n  the box, it does apparently work statically without needing to build a virtual\n  environment but it does require you to create an account on the\n  [safety site](https://platform.safetycli.com/). They have some limited free account\n  but require a paid account to use seriously. If you already have a safety account\n  though there is a [uv-audit](https://pypi.org/project/uv-audit/) package that wraps\n  safety to support scanning uv.lock files.\n- [Python Security PyCharm Plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13609-python-security)\n  Lastly I was inspired by Anthony Shaw's Python Security plugin - which does CVE\n  dependency scanning within PyCharm.\n\nI build uv-secure because I wanted a CLI tool I could run with pre-commit. Statically\nanalyse the uv.lock file without needing to create a virtual environment, and finally\ndoesn't require you to create (and pay for) an account with any service.\n\n## Contributing\n\nPlease raise issues for any bugs you discover with uv-secure. If practical and not too\nsensitive sharing the problem uv.lock file would help me reproduce and fix these issues.\n\nI welcome PRs for minor fixes and documentation tweaks. If you'd like to make more\nsubstantial contributions please reach out by email / social media / or raise an\nimprovement issue to discuss first to make sure our plans are aligned before creating\nany large / time-expensive PRs.\n\nSee the [contributing guide](https://github.com/owenlamont/uv-secure/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)\nfor more details on contributing to uv-secure\n",
