CBAppControl - Passing hash and getting respective values

L2 Linker

Hi all,

 

I was trying to make a playbook where I had a set of hashes extracted from a text file and then search on CbAppControl.

After searching, it would return the filename of the hash and the computers where the hash was detected.

 

Right now there is a built-in playbook to search for hash via CbAppControl though it seems it is not working as intended along with the limitation of MD5. I managed to make some changes and it works as the playbook's original intention i.e. to return the computer name where the hash is found.

 

I am a newbie here so the challenge I am facing is I have this list of hashes extracted via ExtractIndicators which I pass to this sub playbook. The problem is since the subplaybook contains individual functions of carbon black, when the output is passed to each function it is passed as an array. As an example

 

I pass 2 hashes {'ASDAGF4RSDFSDFFDSF','ASDASDFSDFSDFSE'} to the subplaybook

It assigns it to the playbook input "inputs.Hash"

the first function searches the hash values and returns the catalogID if found in carbon black server, also as an array

the second function finds the computer ID where the file resides if found in the carbon black server, also as an array

the third function find the hostname also as an array.

 

Now the problem is how can I link each hash to the respective filename and the respective hostname it was found if all the values are together in an array?

 

I tried doing a loop before the subplaybook but it seems to be slower and still adds the next value in the same array on each iteration (maybe the way i am passing is wrong perhaps).

 

Is there a way to link the hash - filename - hostnames as a table or something? If so how can I implement it?

 

Any guidance would be really helpful. Thanks.

Hello,

 

I managed to solve this as a workaround by just eliminating the sub-playbook and making the contents of the sub-playbook (what i needed only) part of the main playbook and converting the output using converttabletoHTML for each function and posting them in them email report as is. Thanks.
