What's new

CI/CD Integration

  • SARIF v2.1.0 output — upload to GitHub Code Scanning with --format sarif
  • Markdown report — post as PR comment with --format markdown
  • Config file (.cloud-audit.yml) — suppressions, exclude checks, min severity
  • 4 env vars for pipelines: CLOUD_AUDIT_MIN_SEVERITY, CLOUD_AUDIT_EXCLUDE_CHECKS, CLOUD_AUDIT_ROLE_ARN, CLOUD_AUDIT_REGIONS
  • Exit codes: 0 = clean, 1 = findings detected, 2 = scan errors
  • Quiet mode (--quiet) — no output, exit code only

New CLI flags

  • --format (json, sarif, markdown, html) — output to stdout or file
  • --min-severity — filter findings by minimum severity
  • --role-arn — cross-account scanning via STS AssumeRole
  • --config — explicit path to config file
  • list-checks command — show all available checks

New checks (45 total)

  • aws-ec2-005 — EC2 termination protection disabled
  • aws-rds-004 — RDS auto minor version upgrade disabled
  • aws-vpc-004 — Unrestricted Network ACL

Improvements

  • Better error messages for invalid YAML config
  • Suppressed findings count in summary output
  • Precedence: CLI flags > env vars > config file > defaults

Stats

  • 168 tests passing
  • Python 3.10–3.13 supported
