Open Source CAI Framework Handles Pen Testing Tasks up to 3,600× Faster Than Humans
CAI is a new open source AI framework that automates penetration testing tasks like scanning and exploitation up to 3,600× faster than humans.
ModelQueue
_ is an Apache2 licensed task queue based on Django models.
For example, in appname/models.py::
import modelqueue
from django.db import models
class Task(models.Model):
data = models.TextField()
status = modelqueue.StatusField(
# ^-- Just a models.BigIntegerField
db_index=True,
# ^-- Index for faster queries.
default=modelqueue.Status.waiting,
# ^-- Waiting state is ready to run.
)
And in appname/management/commands/process_tasks.py::
import modelqueue, time
from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand
from .models import Task
class Command(BaseCommand):
def handle(self, *args, **options):
while True:
task = modelqueue.run(
Task.objects.all(),
# ^-- Queryset of models to process.
'status',
# ^-- Field name for model queue.
self.process,
# ^-- Callable to process model.
)
if task is None:
time.sleep(1)
# ^-- Bring your own parallelism/concurrency.
def process(self, task):
pass # Process task models.
And in appname/admin.py::
class TaskAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
actions = [*modelqueue.admin_actions('status')]
# ^-- Change task status in admin.
list_filter = [
modelqueue.admin_list_filter('status'),
# ^-- Filter tasks in admin by queue state.
]
def get_changeform_initial_data(self, request):
# v-- Automatically fill in status field when adding a new task.
return {'status': int(modelqueue.Status.waiting())}
ModelQueue
_ is a hazardous project. It takes a bad idea and makes it easy and
effective. You may come to regret using your database as a task queue but it
won't be today!
