Maximum file size

[kukuhprastyono]

i use /api/v2/reimport-scan to send Trivy Scan result of Go image, but at the first time i always got upstream request timeout error
is error caused by file size to big? what is maximum file size that can be sent?

Hi @kukuhprastyono,

there is a setting in settings.dist.py to adjust the maximum file size which can be uploaded. See here:

django-DefectDojo/dojo/settings/settings.dist.py

Line 281 in 659f50b

DD_SCAN_FILE_MAX_SIZE=(int, 100),

In order to set the env settings, please use a local_settings.py file like it is written https://documentation.defectdojo.com/getting_started/configuration/ and discribed also here:

django-DefectDojo/dojo/settings/settings.dist.py

Line 2 in 659f50b

# It is not allowed to edit file 'settings.dist.py', for production deployemnts. #

Otherwise, you will get problems with the sha sum of https://github.com/DefectDojo/django-DefectDojo/blob/master/dojo/settings/.settings.dist.py.sha256sum

Does this help you?

Best,

Manuel

Thanks @manuel-sommer fo your answer
but is any issue if i set limit to big?

It could have other side effects, e.g. your nginx times out if the size is too big to handle within a specific time. Then, you have to adjust other parameters (e.g. the nginx time out). Depends also on your deployment, there is no general answer for it. Just try it out.
