Terraform private module scanning - trivy can't get token from TF_TOKEN env var when hostname contains a "-" character

[adam-carruthers]

Description

Here is the trivy code that finds the token for private terraform registry modules:

envVar := fmt.Sprintf("TF_TOKEN_%s", strings.ReplaceAll(hostname, ".", "_"))

https://github.com/aquasecurity/trivy-iac/blob/3d8e412cf0ab0c8ad0296df8a01363a3ed7efe85/pkg/scanners/terraform/parser/resolvers/registry.go#L58

This correctly changes the . characters in hostnames to _ - but that's not the only transformation that needs to be done. It also needs to look for a second env var with the - characters as __. From the terraform docs:

Hyphens are also valid within host names but usually invalid as variable names and may be encoded as double underscores. For example, you can set a token for the domain name café.fr as TF_TOKEN_xn--caf-dma.fr, TF_TOKEN_xn--caf-dma_fr, or TF_TOKEN_xn____caf__dma_fr. If multiple variables evaluate to the same hostname, Terraform will choose the one defined last in the operating system's variable table.

I really need this change, because I pass the token through the TF_TOKEN variable, but the hostname has a - and I am using Ubuntu that doesn't allow - in environment variables, so trivy can't find my

Desired Behavior

When I used my environment variable TF_TOKEN_some__site_with_hash_com trivy recognised it as the terraform private registry token for some-site.with.hash.com

Actual Behavior

Trivy didn't recognise my environment variable and I couldn't connect it to the private registry.

Reproduction Steps

1. Add terraform code to a folder that uses some imaginary remote repository (doesn't have to be real)

module "fake" {
  source = "some-site.with.hash.com/something/foobar/aws"
}

2. Add the environment variable in your bash terminal

export TF_TOKEN_some__site_with_hash_com=abcdef

3. Run trivy in debug mode

trivy config --skip-dirs .terraform -d .

4. Observe the debug output that it didn't find the token
