GitLab DAST's new browser-based crawler is a crawl engine built by GitLab to test Single Page Applications (SPAs) and traditional web applications.
Due to the reliance of modern web applications on JavaScript, handling SPAs or applications that are dependent on JavaScript is paramount to ensuring proper coverage of an application for Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST).
-The browser-based crawler works by loading the target application into a specially-instrumented Chromium browser. A snapshot of the page is taken prior to a search to find any actions that a user might perform,
-such as clicking on a link or filling in a form. For each action found, the crawler will execute it, take a new snapshot and determine what in the page changed from the previous snapshot.

Crawling continues by taking more snapshots and finding subsequent actions.
The benefit of crawling by following user actions in a browser is that the crawler can interact with the target application much like a real user would, identifying complex flows that traditional web crawlers don't understand. This results in better coverage of the website.

When running a full scan, active vulnerability checks executed by DAST/ZAP do not use a browser. This difference in how vulnerabilities are checked can cause issues that require certain features of the target website to be disabled to ensure the scan works as intended.
-For example, for a target website that contains forms with Anti-CSRF tokens, a passive scan will scan as intended because the browser displays pages/forms as if a user is viewing the page.

+It is expected that running the browser-based crawler results in better coverage for many web applications, when compared to the normal GitLab DAST solution.
This can come at a cost of increased scan time.
You can manage the trade-off between coverage and scan time with the following measures:
- Limit the number of actions executed by the browser with the [variable](#available-cicd-variables) `DAST_BROWSER_MAX_ACTIONS`. The default is `10,000`.
- Limit the page depth that the browser-based crawler will check coverage on with the [variable](#available-cicd-variables) `DAST_BROWSER_MAX_DEPTH`. The crawler uses a breadth-first search strategy, so pages with smaller depth are crawled first. The default is `10`.

+
+### Customize DAST using command-line options
+
+Not all DAST configuration is available via CI/CD variables. To find out all
+possible options, run the following configuration.
+Available command-line options are printed to the job log:
+
+```yaml
+include:
+ template: DAST.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+dast:
+ script:
+ - /analyze --help
+```
+
+You must then overwrite the `script` command to pass in the appropriate
+argument. For example, vulnerability definitions in alpha can be included with
+`-a`. The following configuration includes those definitions:
+
+```yaml
+include:
+ template: DAST.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+dast:
+ script:
+ - export DAST_WEBSITE=${DAST_WEBSITE:-$(cat environment_url.txt)}
+ - /analyze -a -t $DAST_WEBSITE
+```
+
+### Custom ZAProxy configuration
+
+The ZAProxy server contains many [useful configurable values](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/36437#note_245801885).
+Many key/values for `-config` remain undocumented, but there is an untested list of
+[possible keys](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/36437#note_244981023).
+Note that these options are not supported by DAST, and may break the DAST scan
+when used. An example of how to rewrite the Authorization header value with `TOKEN` follows:
+
+```yaml
+include:
+ template: DAST.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+variables:
+ DAST_ZAP_CLI_OPTIONS: "-config replacer.full_list(0).description=auth -config replacer.full_list(0).enabled=true -config replacer.full_list(0).matchtype=REQ_HEADER -config replacer.full_list(0).matchstr=Authorization -config replacer.full_list(0).regex=false -config replacer.full_list(0).replacement=TOKEN"

+If the lock file that our dependency scanning tools reviewed was cached, however, selecting that
+link redirects you to the repository root, with the message:
+`<file> does not exist in <commit SHA>`.
+
+The lock file is cached during the build phase and passed to the dependency scanning job before the
+scan occurs. Because the cache is downloaded before the analyzer run occurs, the existence of a lock
+file in the `CI_BUILDS_DIR` directory triggers the dependency scanning job.

If Semgrep is slow, reports too many false positives or false negatives, crashes, fails, or is otherwise broken, see the Semgrep docs for [troubleshooting GitLab SAST](https://semgrep.dev/docs/troubleshooting/gitlab-sast/).
+
+### SAST job fails with message `strconv.ParseUint: parsing "0.0": invalid syntax`
+
+Invoking Docker-in-Docker is the likely cause of this error. Docker-in-Docker is:
+
+- Disabled by default in GitLab 13.0 and later.
+- Unsupported from GitLab 13.4 and later.
+
+Several workarounds are available. From GitLab version 13.0 and later, you must not use
+Docker-in-Docker.
+
+#### Workaround 1: Pin analyzer versions (GitLab 12.1 and earlier)
+
+Set the following variables for the SAST job. This pins the analyzer versions to the last known
+working version, allowing SAST with Docker-in-Docker to complete as it did previously:
+
+```yaml
+sast:
+ variables:
+ SAST_DEFAULT_ANALYZERS: ""
+ SAST_ANALYZER_IMAGES: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/bandit:2.9.6, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/brakeman:2.11.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/eslint:2.10.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/flawfinder:2.11.1, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/gosec:2.14.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/nodejs-scan:2.11.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/phpcs-security-audit:2.9.1, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/pmd-apex:2.9.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/secrets:3.12.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/security-code-scan:2.13.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/sobelow:2.8.0, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/spotbugs:2.13.6, registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/tslint:2.4.0"
+```
+
+Remove any analyzers you don't need from the `SAST_ANALYZER_IMAGES` list. Keep
+`SAST_DEFAULT_ANALYZERS` set to an empty string `""`.
+
+#### Workaround 2: Disable Docker-in-Docker for SAST and Dependency Scanning (GitLab 12.3 and later)
+
+Disable Docker-in-Docker for SAST. Individual `<analyzer-name>-sast` jobs are created for each
+analyzer that runs in your CI/CD pipeline.
+
+```yaml
+include:
+ - template: SAST.gitlab-ci.yml
+
+variables:
+ SAST_DISABLE_DIND: "true"
+```
+
+#### Workaround 3: Upgrade to GitLab 13.x and use the defaults
+
+From GitLab 13.0, SAST defaults to not using Docker-in-Docker. In GitLab 13.4 and later, SAST using
+Docker-in-Docker is [no longer supported](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/220540).
+If you have this problem on GitLab 13.x and later, you have customized your SAST job to
+use Docker-in-Docker. To resolve this, comment out any customizations you've made to
+your SAST CI job definition and [follow the documentation](index.md#configuration)
+to reconfigure, using the new and improved job definition default values.
