Project Freta

Summary

The Freta SDK enables access to Project Freta, a service used to inspect volatile memory images.

Included in this library is a utility, freta, which provides command line access to the Project Freta service.

Documentation

  • Service Documentation contains information on how to use the Service and details to the information exposed by the Freta analysis.
  • CLI Reference contains information on how to use the Freta CLI to interact with the Freta service.
  • Module Documentation describes the APIs and data structures to programmatically interact with the Freta service.
  • Examples demonstrates how to build upon the SDK to automate Freta.

Installing

cargo install freta

Building

The Freta client is written in Rust and requires Rust 1.64.0 (stable) or newer.

To build freta:

$ git clone https://github.com/microsoft/project-freta
$ cd project-freta
$ cargo build --release
$ ./target/release/freta --version
0.9.0

Using the Client

$ freta info

Using Freta with automated tools

Instead of logging in as a user to the Freta service, automated tools can use the Azure service principals for authentication.

First, create a service principal:

$ az ad sp create-for-rbac -n YOUR_SERVICE_PRINCIPAL_NAME_HERE
{
  "appId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
  "displayName": "YOUR_SERVICE_PRINCIPAL_NAME_HERE",
  "password": "REDACTED_PASSWORD_HERE",
  "tenant": "REDACTED_TENANT_HERE",
}

Then configure the freta client to use the newly created service principal, use the appId from the output of the previous command as the --client-id and the password as the --client-secret, and use the tenant as the --tenant-id:

$ freta config --client-id APP_ID_HERE --client-secret PASSWORD_HERE --tenant-id TENANT_HERE
[2023-01-04T19:43:34Z INFO  freta] config saved: Config { api url: "https://freta.microsoft.com/", client id: "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000", tenant id: "REDACTED_TENANT_HERE", client secret: "[redacted]", scope: "api://a934fc14-92d7-4127-aecd-bddab35935da/.default" }

Before using the service, the service principal must agree to the Freta EULA. This can be done by running the following command:

$ freta eula accept

From here, the client can be used in an automated fashion.
