Vulnerable Polls

Polls is a simple Django app to conduct Web-based polls. For each question, visitors can choose between a fixed number of answers.

Based on the Django Polls tutorial, contains a few XSS/SQLi issues and turns off the built in protections to prevent that.

Build and run

Prerequisites

If you are building on a Mac, you will need to have MySQL and PostgreSQL installed to satisfy dependencies for the MySQL and Postgres client modules listed in requirements.txt.

brew install postgresql
brew install mysql

Using docker-compose

All-in-One vuln_django

The default Docker Compose configuration builds an all-in-one container, including vuln_django, an Nginx front-end, and SQLite.

Build and run in foreground:

docker-compose up --build

Run as a daemon:

docker-compose up -d

Build:

docker-compose build

Microservice vuln_django

The docker-micro-pg Docker Compose configuration builds a microservice version of vuln_django, with separate containers running an Nginx front-end, and PostgreSQL database.

Build, run, and run data migrations:

docker-compose -f docker-micro.yml build
docker-compose -f docker-micro.yml up --detach
./scripts/migrations.sh

To bring the microservice stack up with migrations, a Django admin user, and seed data, run:

./scripts/build-and-run.sh

To do that plus run HawkScan against it, run:

./scripts/build-and-scan.sh

Using Dockerfile

Build the docker image

docker build -t vuln_django .

Run the docker container

docker run -it -p 8020:8020 vuln_django:latest
