experimental-checkers | Infer : Experimental Checkers |
Infer contains a number of experimental checkers that can be run using just like
the normal infer analysis
infer -a checkers --<checker_name> -- <your build command>
. checker_name
can
be bufferoverrun
, siof
, or quandary
. We'll explain the capabilities of
each experimental checker, its level of maturity (on a scale including "in
development", "medium", and "probably deployable"), and the language(s) it
targets.
Inferbo
- Languages: C (but should be easy to adapt to Objective-C/C++, and possibly Java.)
- Maturity: Medium
Inferbo is a detector for out-of-bounds array accesses. You can read all about it in this blog post. It has been tuned for C, but we are planning to adapt it to other languages in the near future.
Quandary
- Languages: Java, C/C++
- Maturity: Medium
Quandary is a static taint analyzer that identifies a variety of unsafe
information flows. It has a small list of built-in
sources
and
sinks,
and you can define custom sources and sinks in your .inferconfig
file (see
example
here).
