[Sprint 4] Implement Vulnerabilities API Module

[talltechy]

Overview

Implement comprehensive Vulnerabilities API module following v2.0 BaseAPI pattern for vulnerability discovery, analysis, and management.

Scope

• Search and filter vulnerabilities
• Get detailed vulnerability information
• CVE and CVSS data retrieval
• Affected assets for vulnerabilities
• Exploit and malware kit associations
• External references (CVE, OVAL, etc.)
• Vulnerability checks and categories
• Helper methods for common workflows
• Integration with InsightVMClient
• Comprehensive docstrings with type hints
• Error handling
• Unit tests (when test framework ready)

API Endpoints

• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities - List vulnerabilities
• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities/{id} - Get vulnerability details
• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities/{id}/affected_assets - Get affected assets
• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities/{id}/exploits - Get exploits
• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities/{id}/malware_kits - Get malware kits
• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities/{id}/references - Get references
• GET /api/3/vulnerabilities/{id}/solutions - Get solutions
• GET /api/3/vulnerability_categories - List categories
• GET /api/3/vulnerability_categories/{id} - Get category
• POST /api/3/vulnerabilities/search - Advanced search

Implementation Checklist

• Create src/rapid7/api/vulnerabilities.py
• Implement VulnerabilityAPI class extending BaseAPI
• Add vulnerabilities sub-client to InsightVMClient
• Create documentation in docs/VULNERABILITIES_API.md
• Update Memory Bank (activeContext.md, progress.md)
• Create feature branch: feature/issue-{number}-vulnerabilities-api

Key Features

• Search & Filter: By severity, CVSS score, category, status
• Risk Analysis: CVSS metrics, risk score, PCI severity
• Exploit Data: Known exploits, malware kits, proof-of-concepts
• Asset Impact: Find all assets affected by vulnerability
• References: CVE, BID, OSVDB, MS bulletins
• Helper Methods: search_by_severity(), get_critical(), get_exploitable()

Estimated Size

~600-700 lines of code

Definition of Done

• VulnerabilityAPI module implemented with all endpoints
• Integrated with InsightVMClient as client.vulnerabilities
• Documented with usage examples
• Memory Bank updated
• PR created and ready for review
