.build

Directory used for building the reports. It contains various intermediate files such as .tex, .aux, .log, .toc, and others generated during the report compilation process.

includes

Directory for supplementary files that are included either through Jinja2 templating or directly in the TeX files. Examples include Jinja2 macros, the TeX glossary file, and the TeX class file (.cls).

layouts

Directory for layout files. These files define the structure of the document.

generated

Directory for generated layout files. These files are typically included in the final document from other layouts. This folder may contain layouts for each target and each finding group. Existing files are not overwritten, allowing for manual modifications.

outputs

Directory for storing outputs from various tools and scripts. While SeReTo does not use this directory directly, it serves as a repository for tool outputs that are relevant to the report.

pdf

Directory for the final PDF reports.

pictures

Directory for images and screenshots used in the report.

target_<category>_<name>

Directories for a individual targets.

findings

Directory for findings related to this target.

findings.yaml

YAML file containing metadata for the findings of this target. It is possible to define name, risk, and variables for each finding, but also to group several findings together to form a single finding group with multiple sub-findings.

.sereto

Together with config.json, this file serves as an indicator that the current directory is a SeReTo project.

Usually, it is an empty file.

.seretoignore

SeReTo offers a convenient feature that allows the inclusion of project sources in the final report PDF. This functionality utilizes the .seretoignore file with the same syntax as .gitignore, enabling the exclusion of specific files.

config.json

Configuration file for the project.
