Differences in ZAP scan report generation !

[Khopithan Sathiyakeerthy]

Hi all,

I have a locally hosted web application and I ran ZAP full scan on that using ZAP GUI and ZAP container. I got different results. When I run a scan from ZAP GUI, It found high level risk and it didn't find any high level risk in ZAP container scanning.

NB: I didn't use any .conf file to the scan 

ZAP GUI scan report [I have used Report Generation addon]

ZAP container scan report

I'm planning to integrate ZAP on my CI/CD pipeline so I prefer to scan from ZAP container but now I am confused about this results. I hope you help me to figure this out. Thanks.

Regards,

Khopi

Hi.

Are you using the same scan rules/add-ons in both scans?

Differences in scan results might be because of that. (e.g. in one it
seems to have used DOM XSS scan rule, maybe it was not installed in the
other.)

Best regards.

Hi,

I generated the .conf file. It seems like

# zap-baseline rule configuration file

# Change WARN to IGNORE to ignore rule or FAIL to fail if rule matches

# Only the rule identifiers are used - the names are just for info

# You can add your own messages to each rule by appending them after a tab on each line.

I dont see any "DOM XSS". How to add that rule ?

Hi Khopi,

It looks like you are using the baseline script: "zap-baseline rule configuration file"

The baseline only performs passive scanning.

The DOM XSS rule is an active one and so is not supported by the baseline scan.

If you want to perform DOM XSS scanning then you will need to use the full scan: https://www.zaproxy.org/docs/docker/full-scan/

Cheers,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Ah my bad. yeah it's baseline scan's conf file. But I'm pretty sure that the second scan report is generated from a zap-full-scan. Anyway, I'm gonna run a full scan to generate a conf file and check again. Thank you for your support.

Regards,

Khopi

Hi Simon,

This is my full scan .conf file. But I got the same report without "Cross Site Scripting (DOM based)" alert 

# zap-full-scan rule configuration file

# Change WARN to IGNORE to ignore rule or FAIL to fail if rule matches

# Active scan rules set to IGNORE will not be run which will speed up the scan

# Only the rule identifiers are used - the names are just for info

# You can add your own messages to each rule by appending them after a tab on each line.
