🤖 Lighthouse AI — Finding Skills

Lighthouse AI now embeds a Skills menu on every finding, answering the questions an analyst actually asks. Contextual Fix produces the fix for the finding, Triage Decision judges whether it is real and closes it out when it is not, and Systemic Scope determines whether the problem is a one-off or everywhere. A free-form "Ask Lighthouse anything" prompt sits in the same menu, and each run shows its progress and offers follow-up actions such as creating a Jira issue or muting the finding.

Read more in the Lighthouse AI documentation.

☁️ Azure Management Group Onboarding

Azure subscriptions no longer onboard one at a time. Choose "Add Multiple Subscriptions With Azure Management Group" in the add-provider wizard, enter the Microsoft Entra tenant ID, and authenticate once with a single tenant-wide service principal: Prowler discovers the entire management-group hierarchy under the tenant root, lets you select the subscriptions to onboard, and creates their providers with the management-group structure preserved. Azure now matches the one-step onboarding that AWS Organizations and GCP organizations already have.

Read more in the Azure Management Groups documentation.

✅ Findings Triage — Verify MANUAL Findings as PASS

Checks that require human judgment report MANUAL findings. For these findings, and only for them, the triage status selector now offers Resolved: choosing it asks for the required written evidence and verifies the finding as passing. The finding then reports an effective PASS while preserving the raw MANUAL scan result, across findings, finding groups, compliance reports, and scans, with the attestation's author, evidence, and validity always visible. Attestations expire automatically after 90 days, or as soon as a new scan reports a real failure, returning the finding to the review queue.

Read more in the Findings Triage documentation.

☁️ Prowler Cloud MCP — Organizations Management and Grouped Jira Dispatch

The hosted Prowler Cloud MCP server adds eight organization tools, so an agent can onboard and manage entire cloud organizations end to end: create the organization, discover its accounts, subscriptions, and projects, apply the selection, and manage the resulting providers. The tools cover AWS Organizations, GCP organizations, and Azure tenant root management groups, and they are available to Lighthouse AI.

prowler_send_findings_to_jira also gains Cloud-only dispatch capabilities: select failed findings by check IDs against the latest completed scan, and send them in grouped mode, one Jira work item per check listing up to 50 affected resources, with per-group error reporting.

Read more in the Prowler MCP tools documentation and its Jira operations reference.

🕸️ Attack Paths — Grouped Graph with Outcome Destinations

The Attack Paths graph now reads from source to destination. Resources of the same class collapse into a single expandable node with a count, clicking reveals its members, and every path terminates in an explicit outcome node naming the destination impact: code execution, privilege escalation, public exposure, or resource inventory. The per-account hub node is gone, and the clicked resource stays highlighted while its findings are expanded.

Explore the full Attack Paths query catalog at Prowler Hub.

📚 New Compliance Framework — CMMC 2.0

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is the certification the US Department of Defense requires from contractors and suppliers that handle federal contract data. Prowler now includes CMMC 2.0 as a universal framework with all 149 requirements defined by the CMMC Program rule (32 CFR Part 170), organized in its three levels:

• Level 1 (Foundational): 15 requirements for the basic safeguarding of Federal Contract Information, from FAR 52.204-21.
• Level 2 (Advanced): 110 requirements from NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2, protecting Controlled Unclassified Information.
• Level 3 (Expert): 24 enhanced requirements from NIST SP 800-172 for the most sensitive programs.

Requirements map to Prowler checks across AWS, Azure, GCP, Alibaba Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and Microsoft 365, so one framework reports the compliance posture of the whole estate.

🔍 Checks

Microsoft 365

Twenty new Entra ID checks expand the coverage of CIS Microsoft 365 Foundations Benchmark v7.0.0:

• Password protection: custom banned password list, on-premises enforcement, and lockout threshold and duration.
• Default user permissions: security group and Microsoft 365 group creation restricted, and guest invitations limited to allowed domains.
• Conditional Access: high and medium sign-in risk blocked, authentication transfer blocked, untrusted locations blocked, trusted named locations defined, sign-in frequency enforced, and token protection enforced.
• Sessions and authentication methods: idle session timeout configured, email one-time passcodes disabled, and Microsoft Authenticator context shown.
• PIM and access reviews: approval required to activate the Global Administrator and Privileged Role Administrator roles, and access reviews configured for guest users and privileged roles.

AWS

Two new checks detect hardcoded secrets:

• batch_job_definition_no_secrets scans Batch job definition environment variables and command parameters. Thanks to @praneetrajv!
• awslambda_layer_no_secrets_in_content scans Lambda layer package content. Thanks to @ganiganesh25!

UI

🚀 Added

• Manual verification workflow for MANUAL findings with evidence, effective PASS status, and expiration details (#12253)
• Surface pre-configured credential creation links in the add-provider wizard. Cloudflare exposes the User API Token template and an Account-Owned template pinned to the Cloudflare Account ID entered in the wizard, GitHub exposes the personal-repositories template and an organization-scanning template pinned to the identifier entered in the wizard (#12349)
• Attack Paths graph groups resources by class into expandable nodes and marks the query outcome as the terminal node, with the clicked resource highlighted while its findings are expanded (Prowler Cloud only) (#12381)
• Azure Management Group onboarding: add every subscription in a tenant at once (Prowler Cloud only) (#12386)
• Manage Lighthouse AI role permission in the role forms and role details, so permission to change the Lighthouse AI configuration can be granted or restricted independently of other permissions (Prowler Cloud only) (#12412)
• CMMC 2.0 universal compliance framework rendering: dedicated icon, Domain/Level requirement mapper and cross-provider catalog tile (#12414)

🐞 Fixed

• Organization discovery describes a too-deep hierarchy in each provider's own vocabulary: AWS organizational units, Azure Management Groups, Google Cloud folders (#12386)
• View Findings on the Scans page no longer opens an empty list for users outside the UTC timezone (#12411)

API

🔄 Changed

• GET /api/v1/users/me membership relationships identify the active tenant with meta.active for JWT and API key authentication (#12388)

🔄 Changed

• GitHub organization_repository_creation_limited check now reports low severity for FAIL findings when repository creation is provably limited to private/internal visibility, instead of always reporting high (#12164)

🔐 Security

• HTML report header now HTML-escapes every provider identity field across all 23 providers, closing a stored XSS in the header block (Secur0, CWE-79) that was left unaddressed by the earlier finding-row fix in #12221 (#12424)
