What data looks like for this category
Data sources for this category include vulnerability scanners, asset inventories, CVE databases, and patch announcements. Update frequency is weekly or monthly. Daily documents cover scan plans, vulnerability lists, rectification work orders, and rescan reports. Document fields include asset IP addresses, vulnerability CVE numbers, risk levels, repair statuses, rescan results, and more. Most fields are tags, numbers, or text content. No uniform numerical units exist. Field combinations vary across different documents.
Constraints imposed by these characteristics on HTTP interfaces and external systems
Data sources are scattered, and update cycles are long. Interfaces must support incremental synchronization and batch pulling for multiple data sources. Document fields include multiple entity types. Interfaces must support combined multi-field queries and filtering. Error consequences are severe. Interfaces must support idempotent operations and failure retry mechanisms. The business focuses on a tool-based closed loop. Interfaces must adapt to exclusive processes such as scan plan triggering, vulnerability result pulling, and rescan feedback. Interfaces do not need to adapt to additional logic for manual penetration testing.
How to set configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
Authorization | Bearer {API_KEY} | Complies with HTTP authentication specifications, and meets the interface access permission requirements for vulnerability scanning services in FastGPT v4.17.0 |
variables | {"asset_scope": "192.168.1.0/24", "scan_level": "high"} | Adapts to dynamic parameter configuration for scan plans, and supports adjusting scan scope and risk level based on business needs |
responseData | ["cve编号", "风险等级", "修复状态", "复扫时间"] | Only returns core business fields, optimizes data transmission efficiency, and matches the document structure of vulnerability lists |
| Timeout Duration | 600 seconds | Adapts to the time consumption requirements of batch vulnerability data pulling, and prevents process interruption due to single request timeout |
| Retry Count | 3 times | Addresses network fluctuations or temporary response delays from scanners, and ensures interface call reliability |
Three common configuration mistakes
- The interface returns a 401 Unauthorized error when called. The cause is incorrect configuration of the
Authorizationparameter, using an invalid or expired API key. - Pulling vulnerability data in batches yields a result count that does not match expectations. The cause is failure to limit the asset scope or scan level via the
variablesparameter, resulting in full redundant data being pulled. - Cross-service call timeout occurs during external system docking configuration. The cause is failure to set a reasonable timeout duration, and failure to adapt to the time consumption characteristics of batch data pulling for vulnerability scanning services.
How to confirm correct configuration
- Call the authentication interface. The interface returns a 200 status code and includes valid session information, confirming that the
Authorizationparameter is configured correctly. - Pass the
variablesparameter with the specified asset scope, then call the pull interface. The returned results only include vulnerability data for the corresponding assets, confirming that the dynamic parameters take effect. - Check the external system docking logs. Confirm that there are no continuous timeouts or interface call retries exceeding 3 times, confirming that the timeout and retry configurations are reasonable.
- Pull the fields specified in
responseData. The returned results only include the preset core business fields, confirming that the data filtering configuration takes effect.
