Other impacts of changes made in AIP Core 8.3.33

SAP/ABAP

Refactoring of part of the SAP/ABAP analyzer has been implemented. This refactoring increases the maintainability of the analyzer while also increasing accuracy. As a result of the changes, some impacts to analysis results are to be expected when re-analyzing existing unchanged source code with this release:

  • Unresolved Objects are no longer created for SUBSTRING and CONCAT clauses.
  • Less violations will be returned for the rule "Avoid Artifacts with a Complex SELECT Clause - 7810" (the select clause column number was over-evaluated when "as <alias>" was present).

User Input Security

The User Input Security feature now has improved support for the rule "Avoid HTTP response splitting - 7740", for both .NET and JEE. Additional targets are now supported as follows:

For NET:

  • .NET
  • .NET Core
  • RestSharp

For JEE:

  • javax.servlet
  • org.apache.cxf
  • org.apache.http
  • org.springframework.http
  • com.squareup.okhttp
  • com.squareup.okhttp3

As a result, analysis results may be impacted when re-analyzing existing unchanged source code - additional violations may be discovered.
