      <description>Sara v1.4.0 rewrites its audit engine over the RouterOS API with 22 structured checks and adds a CVE lookup mode.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds `sara audit &lt;IP&gt; &lt;USERNAME&gt;` command that connects over the RouterOS API (`api-ssl`, port 8729 by default) to check MikroTik router configuration for 22 named checks (MGMT-001 through WIFI-002), each returning severity, live evidence from the router, and a RouterOS fix command.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds `--port` flag to `sara audit` to target a non-standard RouterOS API port.
• Adds `--plaintext` flag to `sara audit` to switch from `api-ssl` (port 8729) to the unencrypted `api` service (port 8728).
• Adds `sara cve &lt;IP&gt; &lt;USERNAME&gt;` command to look up CVEs for the RouterOS version running on a connected router via the NVD API.
• Adds `sara cve --version &lt;VERSION&gt;` to look up CVEs for any RouterOS version without connecting to a router.
• Migrates transport from SSH (Netmiko) to the RouterOS API (librouteros), dropping dependencies on `python3-netmiko` and `python3-packaging`.
Breaking changes:
• Transport migrated from SSH (Netmiko) to the RouterOS API (librouteros); routers must now have the `api-ssl` service (port 8729) enabled and an account with `read` and `api` policies — SSH-based connectivity no longer works.

      <title>sara v1.3.0</title>
      <link>https://github.com/caster0x00/sara/releases/tag/v1.3.0</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://github.com/caster0x00/sara/releases/tag/v1.3.0</guid>
      <pubDate>Tue, 09 Dec 2025 12:37:31 GMT</pubDate>
      <description>sara v1.3.0 adds audit profiles and manual RouterOS version CVE search, with a cleaner console output.
• New audit profiles let you scope scans to system parameters only or protocol configurations only.
• CVE search module now supports manually specifying a RouterOS version to search against.
• Redesigned console output is cleaner and easier to read.
• CVE report format is now more visual.
Breaking changes:
• Password entry via command line arguments has been completely removed; authentication now requires interactive input via `getpass`.

      <title>sara v1.1</title>
      <link>https://github.com/caster0x00/sara/releases/tag/v1.1</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://github.com/caster0x00/sara/releases/tag/v1.1</guid>
      <pubDate>Sun, 02 Mar 2025 18:47:10 GMT</pubDate>
      <description>sara v1.1 shifts to live SSH analysis via Netmiko and adds CVE scanning, compromise artifact detection, and scheduler analysis for RouterOS.
• Migrates analysis engine to live SSH sessions via Netmiko, removing dependency on .rsc configuration file imports.
• Adds CVE-based vulnerability scanning that maps findings to known issues by RouterOS version.
• Adds compromise artifact detection covering suspicious static DNS records, proxy settings, and exposed services.
• Adds scheduler analysis to surface potentially malicious scheduled tasks and hidden configuration overwrites.
• Extends RouterOS version support to cover newer releases.
Breaking changes:
• The tool no longer operates on .rsc configuration files; existing workflows that pass .rsc files as input will break — a live SSH-accessible device is now required.
