# Checkov GitHub action
This GitHub Action runs [Checkov](https://github.com/bridgecrewio/checkov) against infrastructure-as-code,
open source packages, container images, and CI/CD configurations to identify misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and license compliance issues.
## Example usage for IaC and SCA
```yaml
name: checkov
# Controls when the workflow will run
on:
# Triggers the workflow on push or pull request events but only for the "main" branch
push:
branches: [ "main", "master" ]
pull_request:
branches: [ "main", "master" ]
# Allows you to run this workflow manually from the Actions tab
workflow_dispatch:
# A workflow run is made up of one or more jobs that can run sequentially or in parallel
jobs:
# This workflow contains a single job called "scan"
scan:
permissions:
contents: read # for actions/checkout to fetch code
security-events: write # for github/codeql-action/upload-sarif to upload SARIF results
actions: read # only required for a private repository by github/codeql-action/upload-sarif to get the Action run status
# The type of runner that the job will run on
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
# Steps represent a sequence of tasks that will be executed as part of the job
steps:
# Checks-out your repository under $GITHUB_WORKSPACE, so follow-up steps can access it
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
- name: Checkov GitHub Action
uses: bridgecrewio/checkov-action@v12
with:
# This will add both a CLI output to the console and create a results.sarif file
output_format: cli,sarif
output_file_path: console,results.sarif
- name: Upload SARIF file
uses: github/codeql-action/upload-sarif@v2
# Results are generated only on a success or failure
# this is required since GitHub by default won't run the next step
# when the previous one has failed. Security checks that do not pass will 'fail'.
# An alternative is to add `continue-on-error: true` to the previous step
# Or 'soft_fail: true' to checkov.
if: success() || failure()
with:
sarif_file: results.sarif
```
## Example usage for options/environment variables in 'with' block
```yaml
on: [push]
jobs:
checkov-job:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: checkov-action
steps:
- name: Checkout repo
uses: actions/checkout@master
- name: Run Checkov action
id: checkov
uses: bridgecrewio/checkov-action@master
with:
directory: example/
file: example/tfplan.json # optional: provide the path for resource to be scanned. This will override the directory if both are provided.
check: CKV_AWS_1 # optional: run only a specific check_id. can be comma separated list
skip_check: CKV_AWS_2 # optional: skip a specific check_id. can be comma separated list
quiet: true # optional: display only failed checks
soft_fail: true # optional: do not return an error code if there are failed checks
framework: terraform # optional: run only on a specific infrastructure {cloudformation,terraform,kubernetes,all}
skip_framework: terraform # optional: skip a specific infrastructure {cloudformation,terraform,kubernetes,all}
skip_cve_package: CVE_2019_8331 # optional: skip a specific CVE package in SCA scans, can be comma separated list
output_format: sarif # optional: the output format, one of: cli, json, junitxml, github_failed_only, or sarif. Default: sarif
output_file_path: reports/results.sarif # folder and name of results file
output_bc_ids: true # optional: output Bridgecrew platform IDs instead of checkov IDs
download_external_modules: true # optional: download external terraform modules from public git repositories and terraform registry
repo_root_for_plan_enrichment: example/ #optional: Directory containing the hcl code used to generate a given terraform plan file. Use together with `file`
var_file: ./testdir/gocd.yaml # optional: variable files to load in addition to the default files. Currently only supported for source Terraform and Helm chart scans.
log_level: DEBUG # optional: set log level. Default WARNING
config_file: path/this_file
baseline: cloudformation/.checkov.baseline # optional: Path to a generated baseline file. Will only report results not in the baseline.
container_user: 1000 # optional: Define what UID and / or what GID to run the container under to prevent permission issues
use_enforcement_rules: true # optional - use enforcement rule configs from the platform
```
## Example usage for container images
```yaml
on: [push]
env:
IMAGE_NAME: ${{ github.repository }}:${{ github.sha }}
IMAGE_PATH: /path/
jobs:
checkov-image-scan:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: checkov-image-scan
steps:
- name: Checkout repo
uses: actions/checkout@master
- name: Build the image
run: docker build -t ${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }} ${{ env.IMAGE_PATH }}
- name: Run Checkov action
id: checkov
uses: bridgecrewio/checkov-action@master
with:
quiet: true # optional: display only failed checks
soft_fail: true # optional: do not return an error code if there are failed checks
log_level: DEBUG # optional: set log level. Default WARNING
docker_image: ${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }} # define the name of the image to scan
dockerfile_path: ${{ format('{0}/Dockerfile', env.IMAGE_PATH) }} # path to the Dockerfile
container_user: 1000 # optional: Define what UID and / or what GID to run the container under to prevent permission issues
api-key: ${{ secrets.BC_API_KEY }} # Bridgecrew API key stored as a GitHub secret
```
Note that this example uses the latest version (`master`) but you could also use a static version (e.g. `v3`).
Also, the check ids specified for '--check' and '--skip-check' must be mutually exclusive.
## Example usage for private Terraform modules
To give `checkov` the possibility to download private GitHub modules you need to pass a valid GitHub PAT with the needed permissions.
```yaml
on: [push]
jobs:
checkov-job:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: checkov-action
steps:
- name: Checkout repo
uses: actions/checkout@master
- name: Run Checkov action
id: checkov
uses: bridgecrewio/checkov-action@master
with:
directory: .
soft_fail: true
download_external_modules: true
github_pat: ${{ secrets.GH_PAT }}
env:
GITHUB_OVERRIDE_URL: true # optional: this can be used to instruct the action to override the global GIT config to inject the PAT to the URL
```
