About:
pip-audit is a command-line tool that scans Python project dependencies for known security vulnerabilities using the OSV and PyPI Advisory Database. It integrates seamlessly with pip and pip-tools workflows to block insecure packages during installation. The tool helps developers identify and remediate risks in their dependency trees quickly.
|
Key Features:
- Scans dependencies against vulnerability databases (OSV, PyPI Advisory)
- Supports requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, and pip-tools lock files
- Provides CI/CD integration for automated security checks
- Offers JSON output for programmatic processing
|
Use Cases:
- Preventing vulnerable dependencies from being installed in CI pipelines
- Auditing existing Python environments for known CVEs
|
Alternatives:
-
safety
– Safety uses a proprietary vulnerability database and requires an API key for full features, while pip-audit is open-source and uses public databases
-
trivy
– Trivy is a broader container and filesystem scanner, whereas pip-audit is specialized for Python dependency auditing
