Hackerone::Client

A limited client library for interacting with HackerOne in Ruby. Currently supports a few operations:

client = HackerOne::Client::Api.new("github")

# POST '/reports' creates a new report
client.create_report(title: "hi", summary: "hi", impact: "string", severity_rating: :high, source: "api")

# GET '/reports' returns all reports in a given state for a program, by default :new
client.reports(since: 10.days.ago, before: 1.day.ago, state: :new)

# GET '/report/{id}' returns report data for a given report
report = client.report(id)

# PUT '/reports/{id}/assignee'
report.assign_to_user("username")
report.assign_to_group("groupname")

# POST '/reports/#{id}/activities'
report.add_comment(message, internal: false) # internal is true by default

# POST '/report/{id}/state_change change the state of a report
# `state` can be one of  new, triaged, needs-more-info, resolved, not-applicable, informative, duplicate, spam
# when marking as duplicate, you can supply the original report ID
report.state_change(:duplicate, "Your issue has been marked as X", original_report_id: 12345)

# POST '/report/{id}/add_report_reference add a "reference" e.g. internal issue number
report.add_report_reference(reference)

# Triage an issue (add a reference and set state to :triaged)
report.triage(reference)

# Set the severity on a report (rating can be :none, :low, :medium, :high or :critical)
report.update_severity(rating: :high)

# POST /reports/{id}/bounty_suggestions
report.suggest_bounty(message: "I suggest $500 with a small bonus. Report is well-written.", amount: 500, bonus_amount: 50)

# POST /reports/{id}/bounties
report.award_bounty(message: "Here's your bounty!", amount: 500, bonus_amount: 50)

# POST /reports/{id}/swags
report.award_swag(message: "Here's your T-Shirt")

# GET `/{program}/reporters` returns a list of unique reporters that have reported to your program
client.reporters

program = HackerOne::Client::Program.find("insert-program-name-here")

# returns all common responses
program.common_responses

# Updates a program's policy
program.update_policy(policy: "Please submit valid vulnerabilities")

# Gets a program's balance
program.balance

# Gets a list of structured scopes
program.structured_scopes

# Gets an organization for a program
program.organization

# Gets assets for an organization
program.organization.assets

# Updates an asset for an organization
asset = program.organization.assets[0]
asset.update(
  attributes: {
    description: "This is the new description"
  }
)

State change hooks

You can add hooks that will be called for every state change. This can be useful e.g. for ensuring that reports always get assigned or calling out to external services for specific state changes.

# Initialization

HackerOne::Client::Report.add_state_change_hook ->(report, old_state, new_state) do
  # ...
end

Usage

Credential management

You'll need to generate an API token at https://hackerone.com/<program>/api.

  • Click "Create API token"
  • Name the token
  • Click "Create"
  • Copy down the value

Set the HACKERONE_TOKEN and HACKERONE_TOKEN_NAME environment variables.

Program name

In order to retrieve all reports for a given program, you need to supply a default program:

HackerOne::Client.program = "github"

Risk classification

Configure the low/med/high/crit ranges for easier classification based on payouts:

HackerOne::Client.low_range = 1..999
HackerOne::Client.medium_range = 1000...2500
HackerOne::Client.high_range = 2500...5000
HackerOne::Client.critical_range = 5000...100_000_000

Configuration

In order to configure whether error handling is strict or lenient, set the HACKERONE_CLIENT_LENIENT_MODE variable.

Setting this variable will make the client try to absorb errors, like a malformed bounty or bonus amount. Not setting this variable will cause the client to raise errors.
