sidebar_position: 2 sidebar_label: "Jenkins" title: Integrating Scribe in your Jenkins pipeline

Use the following instructions to integrate your Jenkins pipelines with Scribe.

1. Obtain a Scribe Hub API Token

Sign in to Scribe Hub. If you don't have an account you can sign up for free here.
Create an API token in Scribe Hub > Settings > Tokens. Copy it to a safe temporary notepad until you complete the integration.

Important

The token is a secret and will not be accessible from the UI after you finalize the token generation.

2. Add the API token to Jenkins secrets

Log in to your Jenkins account and select Dashboard > Manage Jenkins > Manage credentials (under Security options).
Select 'Global' in the list of domains:
In the Global credentials section, click + Add Credentials. A new Credentials form opens.
Copy the Scribe Hub API Token to the Password field and set the username to SCRIBE_CLIENT_ID.
Set ID to scribe-auth-id (lowercase).
Click Create.

3. Install Scribe CLI

Valint - Scribe CLI is required to generate evidence such as SBOMs and SLSA provenance. Install Valint on your build runner with the following command:

sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin'

Alternatively, add an installation stage at the beginning of your relevant builds as follows:

stage('install-valint') {
    steps {
      sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin'
    }
}

Note: To avoid potentially costly commits, add the Scribe output directory **/scribe to your .gitignore file.

4. Instrument your build scripts

Basic usage

Generate an SBOM of an image built in the pipeline by adding a step to call Valint at the end of the build.

Example Jenkinsfile in declarative syntax:

pipeline {
  agent any
  environment {
    PATH="./temp/bin:$PATH"
  }
  stages {
    stage('install-valint') {
        steps {
          sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin'
        }
    }

    stage('bom') {
      steps {        
        withCredentials([token(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', variable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')]) {
        sh '''
            valint bom busybox:latest \
              --context-type jenkins \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              -P $SCRIBE_API_TOKEN
        '''
      }
    }
  }
}

Jenkinsfile scripted syntax:

node {
  withEnv([
    "PATH=./temp/bin:$PATH"
  ]) {
    stage('install') {
      sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin'
    }
    
    stage('bom') {
        withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')]) {
        sh '''
            valint bom busybox:latest \
              --context-type jenkins \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
        '''
    }
  }
}

Additional examples

Following are more examples of integration of Valint with Jenkins deployed in different forms. In these example we added Valint usage examples that generate source code SBOM by calling it in the build script right after the code is checked out and SLSA provenance generation.

Jenkins over Docker

Make sure you have the following Jenkins extensions installed:

Example SLSA prvenance generation and verification

pipeline {
agent any
stages {
  stage('slsa-provenance') {
    agent {
      docker {
        image 'scribesecurity/valint:latest'
        reuseNode true
        args "--entrypoint="
      }
    }
    steps {
      withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')])       
      sh '''
          valint slsa busybox:latest \
          --context-type jenkins \
          --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
          -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
    }
  }

  stage('verify') {
    agent {
      docker {
        image 'scribesecurity/valint:latest'
        reuseNode true
        args "--entrypoint="
      }
    }
    steps {
       withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')])
       sh '''
       valint verify busybox:latest -i statement-slsa \
            --context-type jenkins \
            --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
            -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
      }
    }
}
}

Jenkins over Kubernetes

Prerequisites

Jenkins over Kubernetes installed.

Example SBOM generation

pipeline {
  agent {
    kubernetes {
      yamlFile 'jenkins/k8s/scribe-test/KubernetesPod.yaml'
    }
  }
 
  stages {
    stage('checkout-bom') {
      steps {        
        container('git') {
          sh 'git clone -b v1.0.0-alpha.4 --single-branch https://github.com/mongo-express/mongo-express.git mongo-express-scm'
        }
        
        container('valint') {
          withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')]) {
            sh '''
            valint bom dir:mongo-express-scm \
            --context-type jenkins \
            --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
            -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
          }
        }
      }
    }

    stage('image-bom') {
      steps {
        container('valint') {
           withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')]) {  
            sh '''
            valint bom mongo-express:1.0.0-alpha.4 \
            --context-type jenkins \
            --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
            -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

This example uses Jenkins over k8s plugin with the Pod template as follows:

metadata:
  labels:
    some-label: jsl-scribe-test
spec:
  containers:
  - name: jnlp
    env:
    - name: CONTAINER_ENV_VAR
      value: jnlp
  - name: valint
    image: scribesecurity/valint:latest 
    command:
    - cat
    tty: true
  - name: git
    image: alpine/git
    command:
      - cat
    tty: true

Example SLSA generationa nd verification

pipeline {
  agent {
    kubernetes {
      yamlFile './KubernetesPod.yaml'
    }
  }
  stages {
    stage('slsa-provenance') {
      steps {                
        container('valint') {
          withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')]) {
            sh '''
            valint slsa mongo-express:1.0.0-alpha.4 \
              --context-type jenkins \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
          }
        }
      }
    }

    stage('verify') {
      steps {
        container('valint') {
          withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', passwordVariable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')]) {
            sh '''
            valint verify mongo-express:1.0.0-alpha.4 -i statement-slsa \
              --context-type jenkins \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              -P $SCRIBE_TOKEN '''
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Details

Using an OCI registry as an evidence store instead of Scribe Hub

For on-prem deployment scenarios where you do not want to utilize Scribe Hub as a SaaS you can store, retrieve, and verify evidence with an OCI Resitry (learn more)

Related flags:

--oci Enable OCI store.
--oci-repo - Evidence store location.

Allow Valint Read and Write access to this registry.
Login to the registry, for example with docker login.

Basic usage

A basic usage generating SBOM of an image built in the pipeline by adding a step to call Valint at the end of the build.

Example Jenkinsfile in declarative syntax:

pipeline {
  agent any
  environment {
    PATH="./temp/bin:$PATH"
  }
  stages {
    stage('install') {
        steps {
          sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin'
        }
    }
    stage('bom') {
      steps {        
        sh '''
            valint [bom,slsa,evidence] [target] \
              -o [attest, statement] \
              --context-type jenkins \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              --oci --oci-repo=[my_repo]
        }
      }
    }

    stage('verify') {
      steps {
            sh '''
                valint verify [target] \
                  -i [attest, statement, attest-slsa, statement-slsa, attest-generic, statement-generic] \
                  --context-type jenkins \
                  --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
                  --oci --oci-repo=[my_repo] '''
          }
      }
    }
  }
}

Example Jenkinsfile in scripted syntax.

node {
  withEnv([
    "PATH=./temp/bin:$PATH"
  ]) {
    stage('install') {
      sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin -D'
    }
    stage('bom') {
        sh '''
            valint [bom,slsa,evidence] [target] \
              -o [attest, statement] \
              --context-type jenkins \

              --oci --oci-repo=[my_repo] '''
      }
    }

    stage('verify') {
      withCredentials([
        token(credentialsId: 'scribe-auth-id', variable: 'SCRIBE_TOKEN')
      ]) {
        sh '''
            valint verify [target] \
              -i [attest, statement, attest-slsa, statement-slsa, attest-generic, statement-generic] \

              --oci --oci-repo=[my_repo] '''
      }
    }
  }
}

5. Signing with x509 keys

You can sign evidence with x509 file based keys.

Related flags:

--key x509 Private key path.
--cert - x509 Certificate path.
--ca - x509 CA Chain path.

While using x509, for example valint slsa busybox:latest --attest.default x509 --key my_key.pem ..

Related environment:

ATTEST_KEY x509 Private key pem
ATTEST_CERT x509 Cert pem
ATTEST_CA x509 CA Chain pem

While using x509-env, for example ATTEST_KEY=$(cat my_key.pem) .. valint slsa busybox:latest --attest.default x509-env

While using x509-env Refrain from using slsa command --all-env

Further secure access to attest-key credential is recommended, for example using a Role-Based Access Control plugin.

Example of generating and verifying a SLSA provenance attestation

withCredentials([file(credentialsId: 'attest-key', variable: 'ATTEST_KEY_PATH'),
        file(credentialsId: 'attest-cert', variable: 'ATTEST_CERT_PATH'),
        file(credentialsId: 'attest-ca', variable: 'ATTEST_CA_PATH')
   {
            sh '''
            valint slsa [target] \
              --key $ATTEST_KEY_PATH \
              --cert $ATTEST_CERT_PATH \
              --ca $ATTEST_CA_PATH \
              --context-type jenkins \
              -o attest \
              --attest.default x509 \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              '''
    }

Verification:

withCredentials([file(credentialsId: 'attest-cert', variable: 'ATTEST_CERT_PATH'),
        file(credentialsId: 'attest-ca', variable: 'ATTEST_CA_PATH')
   {
            sh '''
            valint verify [target] \
              --cert $ATTEST_CERT_PATH \
              --ca $ATTEST_CA_PATH \
              --context-type jenkins \
              -i attest-slsa \
              --attest.default x509 \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              '''
    }

Using custom x509 keys

x509 signer allows you store utilize file based keys for signing.

Related flags:

--key x509 Private key path.
--cert - x509 Certificate path.
--ca - x509 CA Chain path.

While using x509, for example valint slsa busybox:latest --attest.default x509 --key my_key.pem ..

Related environment:

ATTEST_KEY x509 Private key pem content.
ATTEST_CERT - x509 Cert pem content.
ATTEST_CA - x509 CA Chain pem content.

While using x509-env, for example ATTEST_KEY=$(cat my_key.pem) .. valint slsa busybox:latest --attest.default x509-env

While using x509-env Refrain from using slsa command --all-env

Alternative evidence stores

You can learn more about alternative stores here.

OCI Evidence store

Valint supports both storage and verification flows for attestations and statement objects utilizing OCI registry as an evidence store.

Using OCI registry as an evidence store allows you to upload, download and verify evidence across your supply chain in a seamless manner.

Related flags:

--oci Enable OCI store.
--oci-repo - Evidence store location.

Before you begin

Evidence can be stored in any accusable registry.

Write access is required for upload (generate).
Read access is required for download (verify).

You must first login with the required access privileges to your registry before calling Valint. For example, using docker login command or Docker Pipeline custom registry.

Usage

Following is a Jenkinsfile in the declarative syntax.

pipeline {
  agent any
  environment {
    PATH="./temp/bin:$PATH"
  }
  stages {
    stage('install') {
        steps {
          sh 'curl -sSfL https://get.scribesecurity.com/install.sh | sh -s -- -b ./temp/bin'
        }
    }
    stage('bom') {
      steps {        
        sh '''
            valint [bom,slsa,evidence] [target] \
              -o [attest, statement] \
              --context-type jenkins \
              --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
              --oci --oci-repo=[my_repo] '''
      }
    }

    stage('verify') {
      steps {
            sh '''
                valint verify [target] \
                  -i [attest, statement, attest-slsa, statement-slsa, attest-generic, statement-generic] \
                  --context-type jenkins \
                  --output-directory ./scribe/valint \
                  --oci --oci-repo=[my_repo] '''
      }
    }
  }
}
