agamotto 0.5.1

Description:

agamotto 0.5.1

Agamotto
Agamotto is a helper module to make it easier to test a running system
with Python.
Why not use serverspec? I work in a Python shop and want our devs to be
able to easily write their own tests. Making the test suite use the same
language they use daily removes a potential friction point.


Installation
pip install agamotto


Usage
import agamotto
import unittest2 as unittest

class TestKnownSecurityIssues(unittest.TestCase):

def testBashHasCVE_2014_6271Fix(self):
"""Confirm that fix has been installed for CVE-2014-6271 Bash Code
Injection Vulnerability via Specially Crafted Environment Variables
"""
self.assertFalse(agamotto.process.stdoutContains("(env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c \"echo this is a test\") 2>&1",
'vulnerable'), 'Bash is vulnerable to CVE-2014-6271')


def testBashHasCVE_2014_7169Fix(self):
"""Confirm that fix has been installed for CVE-2014-7169 Bash Code
Injection Vulnerability via Specially Crafted Environment Variables
"""
self.assertFalse(agamotto.process.stdoutContains("env X='() { (a)=>\' bash -c \"echo echo vuln\"; [[ \"$(cat echo)\" == \"vuln\" ]] && echo \"still vulnerable :(\" 2>&1",
'still vulnerable'), 'Bash is vulnerable to CVE-2014-7169')


def testNoAccountsHaveEmptyPasswords(self):
"""/etc/shadow has : separated fields. Check the password field ($2) and
make sure no accounts have a blank password.
"""
self.assertEquals(agamotto.process.execute(
'sudo awk -F: \'($2 == "") {print}\' /etc/shadow | wc -l').strip(), '0',
"found accounts with blank password")


def testRootIsTheOnlyUidZeroAccount(self):
"""/etc/passwd stores the UID in field 3. Make sure only one account entry
has uid 0.
"""
self.assertEquals(agamotto.process.execute(
'awk -F: \'($3 == "0") {print}\' /etc/passwd').strip(),
'root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash')



if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
Then run py.test.


Caveats
We’re a CentOS shop. This hasn’t even been tested on stock RHEL, let
alone Debian or Ubuntu. Pull requests adding that functionality are
welcome, of course.
