Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Secrets such as passwords should never be hard-coded in the source code.

Describe the solution you'd like
Detect the password if certain function parameters resolve to a literal string value.

CWE-259

Describe alternatives you've considered
Could grep for all strings, but could result in many false postives.

Additional context

  • java.net.PasswordAuthentication
  • java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection
  • javax.crypto.spec.PBEKeySpec
  • javax.mail.Authenticator
  • javax.security.auth.kerberos.KerberosKey
