semgrep-go

This repo holds patterns for finding odd Go code.

The rules engines currently supported:

I'll accept comby patterns if you can't get them to work with either semgrep or ruleguard.

To run a single semgrep rule:

$ semgrep -f path/to/semgrep-go/rule.yml .

To run all semgrep rules:

$ semgrep -f path/to/semgrep-go/ .

To run all the ruleguard rules:

$ ruleguard -c=0 -rules path/to/semgrep-go/ruleguard.rules.go .

Semgrep checks:

  • badexponentiation: check for 2^x and 10^x which look like exponentiation
  • badnilguard: check for poorly formed nil guards
  • errtodo: check for TODOs in error handling code
  • hmac-bytes: check for using bytes.Equal() with HMACs
  • hostport: check for using fmt.Sprintf() instead of net.JoinHostPort()
  • mathbits: check for places you should use math/bits instead
  • mail-address: check for using fmt.Sprintf() instead of net/mail.Address.String()
  • oddbitwise: check for odd bit-wise expressions
  • oddcompare: check for odd comparisons
  • oddcompound: check for odd compound += or -= expressions
  • oddifsequence: check for an odd sequence of ifs
  • oddmathbits: check for odd uses of math/bits
  • parseint-downcast: check for places a parsed 64-bit int is downcast to 32-bits
  • returnnil: check for odd nil-returns
  • sprinterr: check for fmt.Sprint(err) instead of err.Error()
  • joinpath: check for using strings.Join() to construct paths
  • readfull: check for extra length check for io.ReadFull()
  • nilerr: returning a nil err instead of a nil value
  • errclosed: check for call strings.Contains() to detect net.ErrClosed
  • hmac-hash: check for bad hash.New passed to hmac.New()
  • readeof: check for ignoring io.EOF as a successful read
  • writestring: check for using io.WriteString(w, string(b))
  • wronglock: find incorrect lock/unlock pairs for rwmutex
  • contexttodo: find context.TODO() usage and suggest to change it
  • close-sql-query-rows: find places database/sql.Rows instance isn't Close()d
  • unixnano: check for time.Time comparisons using UnixNano()

Ruleguard checks are in ruleguard.rules.go.

  • unconvert: check for unnecessary conversions
  • timeeq: check for using == and != with time.Time values
  • errnoterror: check for variables called err which are not the error type
  • ifbodythenbody: check for if statements with identical if and else bodies
  • subtractnoteq: check for x-y==0 instead of x==y
  • selfassign: check for variable self-assignments
  • oddnestedif: check for odd patterns of nested-ifs.
  • oddbitwise: check for odd bitwise expressions
  • ifreturn: check for off if/return sequences
  • oddifsequence: check for if sequences
  • nestedifsequence: check for odd nested if sequences
  • identicalassignments: check for x = y ; y = x pairs.
  • oddcompoundop: check for odd compound operations
  • constswitch: check for switch statements with expressions
  • oddcomparisons: check for odd comparisons
  • oddmathbits: check for odd uses of math/bits
  • floateq: check for exact comparisons of floating point values
  • badexponent: check for 2^x and 10^x , which look like exponentiation
  • floatloop: check for using floats as loop counters
  • urlredacted: check for logging urls without calling url.Redacted()
  • sprinterr: check for calling fmt.Sprint(err) instead of err.Error()
  • largeloopcopy: check for large value copies in loops
  • joinpath: check for using strings.Join() to construct paths
  • readfull: check for extra length check for io.ReadFull()
  • nilerr: returning an nil error instead of a nil value
  • errnetclosed: check for call strings.Contains() to detect net.ErrClosed
  • hmac-hash: check for bad hash.New passed to hmac.New()
  • readeof: check for ignoring io.EOF as a successful read
  • writestring: check for using io.WriteString(w, string(b)) when b is []byte
  • badlock: find incorrect lock/unlock pairs for rwmutex
  • contexttodo: find context.TODO() usage and suggest to change it _
