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.
