Analyze Mode

Overview

• Analyzes a Checkmarx/CodeQL/Fortify/Snyk/SonarQube/Semgrep/Opengrep vulnerability report to identify issues that can be remediated automatically

• Produces the code fixes and redirects the user to the fix report page on the Mobb platform

Analyze Mode - Usage

To check what options are available under the analyze mode, run:

npx mobbdev@latest analyze --help

Here is the output of the help file:

npx mobbdev@latest analyze --help

Provide a code repository, get automated fixes right away. You can also provide a vulnerability report to analyze or
have Mobb scan the code for you.

Example

To get fixes for a pre-generated SAST report, run the Bugsy Analyze command. Example:

npx mobbdev analyze --scan-file sast_results.json --repo https://github.com/mobb-dev/simple-vulnerable-java-project

Bugsy will automatically generate a fix for each supported vulnerability identified in the results, and refer the developer to review and commit the fixes to their code.

Automatic PR

To enable automatic PR, make sure to enable --auto-pr flag in your npx mobbdev@latest analyze command. For example:

npx mobbdev@latest analyze --auto-pr --ci --scan-file $SAST_RESULTS_FILENAME --repo $CI_PROJECT_URL --ref $CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME --api-key $MOBB_API_KEY

Don't have a pre-generated SAST report? The same analyze command can run Mobb's built-in Opengrep scanner for you. See Scan and Fix Mode. It also supports a diff-aware mode (--baseline-commit) for PR-gated scans.
