This repository contains the source code of PciCheckerLite that we used in our CCS'19 Security Certification in Payment Card Industry paper. PciCheckerLite is a tool to detect the following 17 PCI related vulnerabilities in a website.

Test cases	Severity
(1) Mysql port (3306) detection	Medium
(2) OpenSSH available	Low
(3) Default Mysql user/password	High
(4) Sensitive info over HTTP	High
(5) Self-signed cert presented	High
(6) Weak Cipher Supported	High
(7) Expired cert presented	Medium
(8) Wrong hostname in cert	Medium
(9) Insecure Modulus	High
(10) Weak hash in cert	High
(11) TLSv1.0 Supported	Low
(12) OpenSSH vulnerable	High
(13) Missing script integrity check	Medium
(14) Server Info available	Medium
(15) Browsable Dir Enabled	High
(16) HTTP TRACE supported	High
(17) Security Headers missing	Medium

Prerequisites to use PciCheckerLite:

1. Download and Install JDK 8 or above.

2. Set JAVA_HOME environment variable.

3. Download and Install Gradle.

4. Run cd /path/to/pci-checker

5. Run gradle clean build

6. Update domains.csv with the domains of your interest

7. Then run the following command.

   cd /path/to/pci-checker && java -jar build/libs/pci-checker.jar "/path/to/domains.csv"

   domains.csv should look like the following (a sample is provided under data directory),

   1,google.com
   2,youtube.com
