            PowerShell SAST / OWASP 10
            Asked 2021-Aug-20 at 15:19

            I am currently developing a PowerShell script with 10k lines of code connecting to a SQL DB. While it is considered a best practice to use plug-ins in the IDE for example for Java or C# to scan the code (Resharper/ Fortify or Sonarcube plugin) and during the build process, perform a SAST analysis, I cannot find any tool suited for PowerShell code except the PSScriptAnalyzer which is good for bad smells but not so much considered a SAST tool.

            Is such a tool currently simply not available for PowerShell or do you know any useful tools?

            NIST keeps a regularly updated list of SAST tool examples (not recommendations) here. As of August 20, 2021, the only tool that lists Powershell as a supported language is Atlassian's Static Reviewer:

            Provides security checks in compliance with OWASP, CWE, CVE, CVSS, MISRA, CERT. Available as a module for Software Composition Analysis (SCA) to find vulnerabilities in open source and third party libraries

            Personally, I just use the PSScriptAnalyzer module with Microsoft's InjectionHunter ruleset. These days, you can add them to VSCode's powershell plugin rules.

            PowerShell: How do I get information selected in a combo box to be used as a variable later on in?
            Asked 2021-Apr-21 at 18:27

            I am trying to create a script to aid my helpdesk team when creating an AD Account. So far I am able to create a user account with a few attributes, however I am trying to make the script capable of filling all the required details out. What I would like to do is have a set list of locations and once a location is selected the script will use the variable $UserLocation in a range of functions, for now I just want the text returned ie; a user selects 'Location1' the variable $UserLocation returns the value 'Location1'. However at the moment it doesn't seem to work, I realise this is a really silly question but I can't figure it out for the life of me.

            The area that has the issue is ##GetUserLocation The end result is to user $UserLocation to return the text selected in the combo box.

            Very nice UI, nicely done :)

            Edit*

            On closer review, you had code to set $combobox1.add_SelectedIndexChanged more than once, effectively removing the eventhandler I suggested in my previous answer. There was also a function that was in your code but not used at all, a ComboList helper. I trimmed your code down here and it now works fine.

            Here's your issue. You are correctly setting up an event handler to trigger when a user changes the selected item in a combobox.

            Answered 2021-Feb-09 at 07:14

            Trying out your code on my own I had to resolve two issues:

            • From the webview2 nuget package (for reference I used the WebView2 nuget 1.0.781-prerelease package) I copied the winforms and core DLL from the net45 folder and I copied the x64 webview2loader.dll all into the wv2 folder. You need to ensure the webview2loader.dll of the appropriate CPU architecture is copied next to the core dll.
            • The default WebView2 user data folder is in the folder containing the host executable. In this case the host executable is powershell and the containing folder isn't writable by normal processes. So you need to change the user data folder which you can do via the CoreWebView2CreationProperties UserDataFolder property before the WebView2 is initialized.

            I have the modified code below. Additional work is required to resize and close the WebView2 and resolve other issues.

            The Resources are created yet the Deployment operation fails because there is a problem in caclulating the output variable.

            Most likely it is because of the way you are trying to access the Service Principal Id of the App Service. The '/providers/Microsoft.ManagedIdentity/Identities/default' part.

            PSSA complains because the Mandatory flag applies to the user - the user must specify arguments for all parameters marked Mandatory in a parameter set - and since the user is already required to supply arguments, it makes no sense to default values, PowerShell will never use them.

            The local variables corresponding to the switch parameters in the parameter sets NOT chosen will default to a $null-like value, equivalent to $false anyway:

            You shouldn't be running a while loop from inside your checkbox event handler.

            As soon as your form checks if the checkbox is checked, it'll freeze the form as it's on a single thread, and that thread is stuck in a while loop.

            The CheckedChanged handler should only really be used if you want something to run once when the checkbox changes state.

            Functionality you want to run continuously based on the state of the checkbox could be done using a timer.
