SpotBugs
A tool for static analysis to look for bugs in Java code
SpotBugs is a program that uses static analysis to look for bugs in Java code. It is free software, distributed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License. SpotBugs is a fork of FindBugs (which is now an abandoned project), carrying on from the point where it left off with the support of its community. Please check the official manual for details. SpotBugs requires JRE (or JDK) 1.8.0 or later to run. However, it can analyze programs compiled for any version of Java, from 1.0 to 1.9. To build the SpotBugs plugin for Eclipse, you'll need to create the file eclipsePlugin/local.properties, containing a property eclipseRoot.dir that points to an Eclipse installation's root directory (see .travis.yml for an example), then run the build. -

PHP Parser
A PHP parser written in PHP
This is a PHP 5.2 to PHP 8.0 parser written in PHP. Its purpose is to simplify static code analysis and manipulation. A parser is useful for static analysis, manipulation of code and basically any other application dealing with code programmatically. A parser constructs an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of the code and thus allows dealing with it in an abstract and robust way. As the parser is based on the tokens returned by token_get_all (which is only able to lex the PHP version it runs on), additionally a wrapper for emulating tokens from newer versions is provided. This allows to parse PHP 7.4 source code running on PHP 7.0, for example. This emulation is somewhat hacky and not perfect, but it should work well on any sane code. Support for pretty printing, which is the act of converting an AST into PHP code. Please note that "pretty printing" does not imply that the output is especially pretty. -

Pylint
It's not just a linter that annoys you!
Pylint is a static code analyzer for Python 2 or 3. The latest version supports Python 3.7.2 and above. Pylint analyses your code without actually running it. It checks for errors, enforces a coding standard, looks for code smells, and can make suggestions about how the code could be refactored. Projects that you might want to use alongside pylint include flake8 (faster and simpler checks with very few false positives), mypy, pyright or pyre (typing checks), bandit (security-oriented checks), black and isort (auto-formatting), autoflake (automated removal of unused import or variable), pyupgrade (automated upgrade to newer python syntax) and pydocstringformatter (automated pep257). Pylint isn't smarter than you: it may warn you about things that you have conscientiously done or checks for some things that you don't care about. During adoption, especially in a legacy project where pylint was never enforced. -

RuboCop Rails
A RuboCop extension focused on enforcing Rails best practices
A RuboCop extension focused on enforcing Rails best practices and coding conventions. It’s based on the community-driven Rails style guide. You need to tell RuboCop to load the Rails extension. Now you can run rubocop and it will automatically load the RuboCop Rails cops together with the standard cops. If you are using Rails 6.1 or newer, add the following config.generators.after_generate setting to your config/application.rb to apply RuboCop autocorrection to code generated by bin/rails g. It uses rubocop -A to apply Style/FrozenStringLiteralComment and other unsafe autocorretion cops. rubocop -A is unsafe autocorrection, but code generated by default is simple and less likely to be incompatible with rubocop -A. If you have problems you can replace it with rubocop -a instead. -

Security Code Scan
Vulnerability Patterns Detector for C# and VB.NET
Detects various security vulnerability patterns. SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), XML eXternal Entity Injection (XXE), etc. Inter-procedural taint analysis for input data. Continuous Integration (CI) support for GitHub and GitLab pipelines. Stand-alone runner or through MSBuild for custom integrations. Analyzes .NET and .NET Core projects in the background (IntelliSense) or during a build. Works with Visual Studio 2019 or higher. Visual Studio Community, Professional and Enterprise editions are supported. Other editors that support Roslyn-based analyzers like Rider or OmniSharp should work too. Security Code Scan (SCS) is not a Linter. It is a real static analysis tool that does extensive computations. Thus installing it as a Visual Studio extension or NuGet package will slow down your Visual Studio IDE. -

GoKart
A static analysis tool for securing Go code
GoKart is a static analysis tool for Go that finds vulnerabilities using the SSA (single static assignment) form of Go source code. It is capable of tracing the source of variables and function arguments to determine whether input sources are safe, which reduces the number of false positives compared to other Go security scanners. For instance, a SQL query that is concatenated with a variable might traditionally be flagged as SQL injection; however, GoKart can figure out if the variable is actually a constant or constant equivalent, in which case there is no vulnerability. GoKart also helps to power Chariot, Praetorian's security platform that helps you find, manage, and fix vulnerabilities in your source code and cloud environments. Chariot makes it simple to run automated, continuous GoKart scans on your source code. If you want to try GoKart, you can set up a free Chariot account in minutes. -
