Automated Vulnerability Assessment and Remediation

Created on 2 March 2025, about 1 month ago

Problem/Motivation

FedRAMP and HIPAA require continuous vulnerability monitoring and timely remediation. Drupal 11 needs an integrated vulnerability management approach that automatically detects weaknesses and guides remediation efforts.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Drupal 11
  2. Look for built-in vulnerability scanning
  3. Try to assess security posture against known vulnerabilities
  4. Note the reliance on external tools and manual processes

Proposed resolution

Create a Recipe component for vulnerability management that includes:

  • Automated security scanning for core and modules
  • OWASP Top 10 vulnerability detection
  • Configuration weakness identification
  • Guided remediation workflows
  • Compliance reporting for vulnerability status

Remaining tasks

  1. Define vulnerability assessment rules
  2. Implement scanning framework
  3. Create remediation guidance
  4. Build reporting dashboard
  5. Develop integration with security advisories

User interface changes

  • Vulnerability scanning dashboard
  • Remediation guidance interface
  • Security posture visualization

API changes

  • Scanning service APIs
  • Vulnerability assessment hooks
  • Remediation workflow services

Data model changes

  • Vulnerability record entities
  • Assessment rule configurations
  • Remediation status tracking

    I was just reading about https://automate.fedramp.gov, and it looks like a really useful resource for us. It’s designed for cloud service providers and developers, helping with validation and submission of digital authorization packages to streamline the FedRAMP process. Definitely worth exploring!
