Custom webhook

Custom webhooks allow you to receive GitGuardian notifications on any server that accepts incoming json-encoded HTTP "POST" requests.

We use HMAC with sha256 as a hash function to sign the payload of our requests. The key used is a string concatenation of the timestamp and the signature token. This allows you to check that requests are coming from GitGuardian and that the payload was not altered during transport. See below how to implement the verification procedure. You can set the signature token in your settings.

The “Timestamp” field in the header counters replay attacks. If your current timestamp differs from our sending “Timestamp” by more than a few seconds, it is safer to drop the request.

A custom header can also be added to the requests from your settings to specify, for example, the environment or service.

How to create a custom webhook endpoint

Navigate to Settings > Workspace > Integrations > Destinations > Custom webhook

For a personal workspace

Create a new custom webhook with the name of your webhook and the URL where you want to receive GitGuardian notifications. GitGuardian generates a default signature token for you to verify the authenticity of the webhook. The signature token can be edited, make sure to store it in a safe place as you won't be able to access it again after creating the webhook.
Select the events you would like to subscribe to and receive.
Configure the endpoint on your side to verify the incoming request and handle GitGuardian alerts.

For a business workspace

Create a new custom webhook at team level.

If you intend to activate the custom webhook for ALL incidents within the workspace, you should create it within the 'All-incidents team'.
If you intend to activate the custom webhook for incidents within a particular team, you should create it within that team.

This can be done directly from the integration page:

Manage integrations

or from the team page:

Custom webhook form team

Select the events you would like to subscribe to and receive.
Configure the endpoint on your side to verify the incoming request and handle GitGuardian alerts.

Events

Custom webhooks can receive events from GitGuardian Internal Monitoring and/or GitGuardian Public Monitoring (if your workspace and team have access to Public Monitoring).

GitGuardian allows you to subscribe to the following events, either for incidents and/or public incidents:

Incidents

Name	Description
New incident detected	A new incident has been detected.
New occurrence detected	A new occurrence has been detected for this incident.
Incident resolved	This incident has been resolved.
Incident ignored	This incident has been ignored.
Incident reopened	This incident has been reopened.
Incident regression	A new regression was found for this incident.
Incident assigned	This incident has been assigned to a user.
Incident reassigned	This incident has been reassigned to a different user.
Incident unassigned	A user was unassigned from this incident.
Incident Severity changed	The severity has been updated for this incident.
Incident Validity changed	The validity has been updated for this incident.

Incident unshared publicly	A user has deactivated the public sharing link for this incident.
Feedback submitted	A feedback has been submitted for this incident.
New comment on an incident	A new note has been created for this incident.

How to test the webhook

You can send a test message from the GitGuardian workspace in order to check that your webhook is operational. Here is a sample payload of the test message you will receive:

{
  "author": {
    "info": "sample@sample.sample",
    "name": "Sample Sample"
  },
  "origin": "GitGuardian",
  "date": "2042-10-10 04:00:00 PM",
  "type": "Welcome Message Token",
  "policy": "Secrets detection",
  "gitguardian_link": "http://dashboard.gitguardian.com/workspace/34123/incidents/8213",
  "break_url": "github.com/sample_user/sample_repo/compare#ae32df",
  "severity": "unknown",
  "validity": "invalid",
  "matches": [
    {
      "type": "client_id",
      "match": "--censored--",
      "index_start": 74,
      "index_end": 86,
      "pre_line_start": 2,
      "pre_line_end": 2,
      "post_line_start": 3,
      "post_line_end": 3
    },
    {
      "type": "client_secret",
      "match": "--censored--",
      "index_start": 30,
      "index_end": 44,
      "pre_line_start": 1,
      "pre_line_end": 1,
      "post_line_start": 2,
      "post_line_end": 2
    }
  ]
}

Note: your response message will contain the matched secret in plain text and will not show as --censored-- as shown above.

How to verify the payload signature

We use HMAC with SHA256 as a hash function to sign the payload of our requests. The key used is a string concatenation of the timestamp and the signature token. This allows you to check that requests are coming from GitGuardian and that the payload was not altered during transport.

See below how to implement the verification procedure. You can set the signature token in your settings.

The Timestamp field in the header counters replay attacks. If your current timestamp differs from our sending Timestamp by more than a few seconds, it is safer to drop the request.

The Gitguardian-Signature replaces the old header X-GitGuardian-Signature, which is still available but deprecated as we switch to the new.

Python3 example

Here is a python3 example of how to verify the signature of our notifications:

signature is from our request's headers
timestamp is from our request's headers
signature_token is the token that you have specified in the settings
payload is our request body, decoded from “utf-8” (i.e. string representing our json)

import hmac
import hashlib

def verify_signature(signature: str, timestamp: str, signature_token: str, payload: str) -> bool:
  if not signature.startswith("sha256="):
    return False

  signature = signature.split("sha256=")[-1]
  hmac_digest = hmac.new(key=bytes(timestamp + signature_token, "utf-8"),
                         msg=bytes(payload, "utf-8"),
                         digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
  return hmac.compare_digest(signature, hmac_digest)

Here is a very basic unit test that lets you check that your implementation is correct:

assert verify_signature_gitguardian(
    signature="sha256=172fe3d694b734aa53dc892fd3b8d62163fc240064de570ba006900bb54a0fc2",
    timestamp="0",
    signature_token="foo",
    payload="bar"
  )

AWS Lambda example

When using AWS lambda, a HTTP API Gateway must be used as trigger.

HTTP API Gateway

Below are two examples, respectively in Javascript and Python, on how to validate the payload received from the dashboard.

Javascript

const { createHmac } = require('crypto')

function verifySignature(signature, timestamp, signatureToken, payload) {
  var signatureHeader = signature.substring(0, 7)
  if (signatureHeader !== 'sha256=') {
    return false
  }

  var signatureActual = signature.split('=')[1]

  var hmac = createHmac(
    'sha256',
    Buffer.from(timestamp + signatureToken, 'utf8')
  )
  hmac.update(payload)

  var result = hmac.digest('hex')

  if (result === signatureActual) {
    return true
  } else {
    return false
  }
}

exports.handler = async (event) => {
  const payload_signature = event.headers['gitguardian-signature']
  const timestamp = event.headers['timestamp']
  const webhook_token = '<INSERT SIGNATURE TOKEN HERE>'
  const payload = event.body

  let statusCode
  if (verifySignature(payload_signature, timestamp, webhook_token, payload)) {
    console.log('OK')
    statusCode = 200
  } else {
    statusCode = 400
    throw new Error()
  }
  const response = {
    statusCode,
  }
  return response
}

Python

import hmac
import hashlib
import json


def verify_signature(signature: str, timestamp: str, signature_token: str, payload: str) -> bool:
    if not signature.startswith("sha256="):
        return False
    signature = signature.split("sha256=")[-1]
    hmac_digest = hmac.new(key=bytes(timestamp + signature_token, "utf-8"),
                           msg=bytes(payload, "utf-8"),
                           digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
    return hmac.compare_digest(signature, hmac_digest)


def lambda_handler(event, context):
    payload_dump = event["body"]

    timestamp = event["headers"]["timestamp"]
    payload_signature = event["headers"]["gitguardian-signature"]
    webhook_token = "<INSERT SIGNATURE TOKEN HERE>"

    if verify_signature(payload_signature, timestamp, webhook_token, payload_dump):
        return {'statusCode': 200, 'body': json.dumps('Success') }

    return {'statusCode': 400, 'body': json.dumps('Failed to verify') }

Payload structure

caution

Please be aware that webhook delivery is not guaranteed and is best effort. When a webhook event is triggered, GitGuardian sends a single HTTP POST request to your defined webhook endpoint. However, if your endpoint is unreachable or there are network issues between GitGuardian and your server, the webhook event may not be received. While webhooks are generally reliable, it's important to remember that delivery cannot be guaranteed.

The payloads are described by the OpenAPI specification. Below are a few examples for the different events you can subscribe to.
