Optimizations

#​1909 waits to find newlines until a match. This ends up saving a boat load of time since before we were finding newlines for every fragment regardless if a rule matched or not.
#​1908 promoted @​rgmz excellent stopword optimization

Composite Rules (Multi-part or required Rules) #​1905

In v8.28.0 Gitleaks introduced composite rules, which are made up of a single "primary" rule and one or more auxiliary or required rules. To create a composite rule, add a [[rules.required]] table to the primary rule specifying an id and optionally withinLines and/or withinColumns proximity constraints. A fragment is a chunk of content that Gitleaks processes at once (typically a file, part of a file, or git diff), and proximity matching instructs the primary rule to only report a finding if the auxiliary required rules also find matches within the specified area of the fragment.

Proximity matching: Using the withinLines and withinColumns fields instructs the primary rule to only report a finding if the auxiliary required rules also find matches within the specified proximity. You can set:

• withinLines: N - required findings must be within N lines (vertically)
• withinColumns: N - required findings must be within N characters (horizontally)
• Both - creates a rectangular search area (both constraints must be satisfied)
• Neither - fragment-level matching (required findings can be anywhere in the same fragment)

Here are diagrams illustrating each proximity behavior:

p = primary captured secret
a = auxiliary (required) captured secret
fragment = section of data gitleaks is looking at

Archive Scanning

Sometimes secrets are packaged within archive files like zip files or tarballs,
making them difficult to discover. Now you can tell gitleaks to automatically
extract and scan the contents of archives. The flag --max-archive-depth
enables this feature for both dir and git scan types. The default value of
"0" means this feature is disabled by default.

Recursive scanning is supported since archives can also contain other archives.
The --max-archive-depth flag sets the recursion limit. Recursion stops when
there are no new archives to extract, so setting a very high max depth just
sets the potential to go that deep. It will only go as deep as it needs to.

The findings for secrets located within an archive will include the path to the
file inside the archive. Inner paths are separated with !.

Example finding (shortened for brevity):

Finding:     DB_PASSWORD=8ae31cacf141669ddfb5da
...
File:        testdata/archives/nested.tar.gz!archives/files.tar!files/.env.prod
Line:        4
Commit:      6e6ee6596d337bb656496425fb98644eb62b4a82

Fingerprint: 6e6ee6596d337bb656496425fb98644eb62b4a82:testdata/archives/nested.tar.gz!archives/files.tar!files/.env.prod:generic-api-key:4
Link:        https://github.com/leaktk/gitleaks/blob/6e6ee6596d337bb656496425fb98644eb62b4a82/testdata/archives/nested.tar.gz

This means a secret was detected on line 4 of files/.env.prod. which is in
archives/files.tar which is in testdata/archives/nested.tar.gz.

Currently supported formats:

The compression
and archive
formats supported by mholt's archives package
are supported.

Calling this one @​bplaxco's release as he introduced a really clever method for mixed decoding without sacrificing too much performance. As I stated in his PR, I think he's either a wizard or some time traveling AI. Dude is wicked smaht

Anyways, Gitleaks now supports the following decoders: hex, percent(url enconding), and b64. It's relatively straight forward to add a new decoder so if you're motivated, community contributions are welcomed!

Here's an example:

~/code/gitleaks-org/gitleaks (master) cat decode.txt
text below
aGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ%3D%3D%0A
text above
~/code/gitleaks-org/gitleaks (master) ./gitleaks dir decode.txt --max-decode-depth=2 --log-level=debug

READ THIS!!! The default gitleaks config now uses [[rules.allowlists]]

### ⚠️ In v8.21.0 `[rules.allowlist]` was replaced with `[[rules.allowlists]]`.
### This change was backwards-compatible: instances of `[rules.allowlist]` still  work.
    #

### You can define multiple allowlists for a rule to reduce false positives.
### A finding will be ignored if _ANY_ `[[rules.allowlists]]` matches.
    [[rules.allowlists]]
    description = "ignore commit A"

### When multiple criteria are defined the default condition is "OR".
### e.g., this can match on |commits| OR |paths| OR |stopwords|.
    condition = "OR"
    commits = [ "commit-A", "commit-B"]
    paths = [
      '''go\.mod''',
      '''go\.sum'''
    ]

### note: stopwords targets the extracted secret, not the entire regex match
### like 'regexes' does. (stopwords introduced in 8.8.0)
    stopwords = [
      '''client''',
      '''endpoint''',
    ]

    [[rules.allowlists]]

### The "AND" condition can be used to make sure all criteria match.
### e.g., this matches if |regexes| AND |paths| are satisfied.
    condition = "AND"

### note: |regexes| defaults to check the _Secret_ in the finding.
### Acceptable values for |regexTarget| are "secret" (default), "match", and "line".
    regexTarget = "match"
    regexes = [ '''(?i)parseur[il]''' ]
    paths = [ '''package-lock\.json''' ]

This bumps the gitleaks binary size from around 8.5MB to 15MB but yields 2-4x speedup. Worth it imo. If you feel strongly against this change feel free to open an issue where we can discuss the tradeoffs in more depth. Credit to @​ahrav

⚠️ Note: you may find some findings that were previously ignored if using .gitleaksignore pop up in your scans. This is due to a fix for a long standing bug where gitleaks would incorrectly report merge commit SHAs instead of the actual commit where a secret was introduced. See the following issues for more context:

• gitleaks#1333
• gitleaks#1559
• gitleaks#1570 (comment)

New Feature: Decoding

Sometimes secrets are encoded in a way that can make them difficult to find
with just regex. Now you can tell gitleaks to automatically find and decode
encoded text. The flag --max-decode-depth enables this feature (the default
value "0" means the feature is disabled by default).

Recursive decoding is supported since decoded text can also contain encoded
text. The flag --max-decode-depth sets the recursion limit. Recursion stops
when there are no new segments of encoded text to decode, so setting a really
high max depth doesn't mean it will make that many passes. It will only make as
many as it needs to decode the text. Overall, decoding only minimally increases
scan times.

The findings for encoded text differ from normal findings in the following
ways:

• The location points the bounds of the encoded text
  • If the rule matches outside the encoded text, the bounds are adjusted to
    include that as well
• The match and secret contain the decoded value
• Two tags are added decoded:<encoding> and decode-depth:<depth>

Currently supported encodings:

• base64 (both standard and base64url)
