Release Notes

spotbugs/spotbugs (com.github.spotbugs:spotbugs-annotations)

v4.8.3

Compare Source

Fixed

• Fix FP in CT_CONSTRUCTOR_THROW when the finalizer does not run, since the exception is thrown before java.lang.Object's constructor exits for checked exceptions (#​2710)

  • More information bcel changes can be found on (#​2757)

v4.8.2

Compare Source

Fixed

• Fixed false positive UPM_UNCALLED_PRIVATE_METHOD for method used in JUnit's MethodSource (#​2379)

Added

• New detector finding System.getenv() calls, where the corresponding Java property could be used (See ENV02-J).

Build

• Fixed detector RandomOnceSubDetector to not report when doubles, ints, or longs are called on a new Random or SecureRandom (#​2370)

• Fixed annotation on generic or array incorrectly considered for the nullability of a method parameter or return type (#​2502)

Added

• New simple name-based AnnotationMatcher for exclude files (now bug annotations store the class java annotations in an attribute called classAnnotationNames). For example, use like in an excludeFilter.xml to ignore classes generated by the Immutable framework. This ignores all class, method or field bugs in classes with that annotation.
• Added the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) taxonomy to the Static Analysis Results Interchange Format (SARIF) report. The short and long description for the CWEs are retrived from a JSON file which is a slimmed down version of the official comprehensive CWE XML from MITRE. The JSON contains information about all CWEs. (#​2410).

• New rule set PA_PUBLIC_PRIMITIVE_ATTRIBUTE, PA_PUBLIC_ARRAY_ATTRIBUTE and PA_PUBLIC_MUTABLE_OBJECT_ATTRIBUTE to warn for public attributes which are written by the methods of the class. This rule is loosely based on the SEI CERT rule OBJ01-J Limit accessibility of fields. (#OBJ01-J)
• Extend SerializableIdiom detector with new bug type: SE_PREVENT_EXT_OBJ_OVERWRITE. It's reported in case of the readExternal() method allows any caller to reset any value of an object
• New Detector FindVulnerableSecurityCheckMethods for new bug type VSC_VULNERABLE_SECURITY_CHECK_METHODS. This bug is reported whenever a non-final and non-private method of a non-final class performs a security check using the java.lang.SecurityManager. (See [SEI CERT MET03-J] (https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/java/MET03-J.+Methods+that+perform+a+security+check+must+be+declared+private+or+final))
• New function added to detector SynchronizationOnSharedBuiltinConstantto detect DL_SYNCHRONIZATION_ON_INTERNED_STRING (#​2266)
• Make TypeQualifierResolver recognize org.apache.avro.reflect.Nullable (#​2066)
• New detector FindArgumentAssertions detecting bug ASSERTION_OF_ARGUMENTS in case of validation of arguments of public functions using assertions (See MET01-J. Never use assertions to validate method arguments)
• Add new detector CT_CONSTRUCTOR_THROW for detecting constructors that throw exceptions.
• New detector DontReusePublicIdentifiers for new bug type PI_DO_NOT_REUSE_PUBLIC_IDENTIFIERS. This bug is reported whenever a new class, interface, field, method or variable is created reusing an identifier from the Java Standard Library . (See SEI CERT rule DCL01-J)
