Security Scan

A Security Scan provider (Type: Security Scan) probes one or more web targets, fingerprints the software they run (product, vendor, version), and reports the known vulnerabilities (CVEs) that match. Fingerprints and CVEs come from an online data source, so the scan reflects an up-to-date list without upgrading Casdoor.

Configure the provider

1. Go to Providers → Add.

2. Set Category to Scan and Type to Security Scan.

3. Choose a Sub-type — it decides where the scan targets come from:

   Sub-type	Targets
   Site	The Sites configured in the same organization. Casdoor derives the base URLs from each Site and scans them.
   Url	An explicit list of URLs you enter in the URL field.

4. Fill in the fields below and Save.

Campo	Applies to	Descrição
Online list	Both	Optional URL of an extra CVE / fingerprint data source (JSON). It is merged on top of the built-in list, so you can add your own signatures. Leave empty to use only the built-in list.
URL	Url sub-type only	One or more target URLs, one per line (for example https://example.com). Required for a Url scan.

Data source

Casdoor always loads its built-in CVE and fingerprint list from https://casdoor.ai/casdoor-data/data.json, and merges any Online list source on top of it. If a source cannot be reached, the scan continues with whatever list was already loaded.

Run a scan

Open the saved provider and click Scan. The provider must be saved first — the button is disabled while you are still creating a new provider.

The result appears in a table below the button. Each row is one finding:

Column	Descrição
Name	The target's name (the Site name, or the URL).
Product / Vendor / Version	The software detected on the target.
Severity	Severity of the match.
CVEs	Matched CVEs, each linking to its reference and showing its own severity and summary.

A target with no fingerprint match still appears as a single row with no product and no CVEs, so you can see it was scanned. The full result is also saved to the provider's metadata field.

API

A scan is triggered by:

GET /api/scan?owner=<owner>&name=<provider-name>&target=<optional>

• owner and name identify the Security Scan provider; the sub-type, online list and URL targets are read from that provider.
• target is optional. For a Url scan it overrides the configured URL list; for a Site scan it filters the derived base URLs by substring. For a Url scan, a target must be supplied either here or in the provider's URL field.

The response returns the list of findings, and the same result is persisted to the provider's metadata.
