An evaluation of Github code scanning
Read OriginalThis article provides a technical evaluation of GitHub's newly released Code Scanning feature, which uses the CodeQL semantic analysis engine. The author sets up a test using a deliberately vulnerable C code repository (fuzzgoat) to analyze how effectively CodeQL identifies specific security flaws like use-after-free and invalid memory frees. It includes details on configuration, query sets, and an analysis of the tool's performance.
