This allows a bit more precision. Specifically, we could
require the sanitizer to only affect `ConvertedToDict`.
In practice, most sanitizers woudl probably fail on raw
input also, though.
A few change notes slipped through the cracks of my previous change. These are now in the proper locations: `old-change-notes` for older notes, and `<lang>\ql\[src|lib]\change-notes` for current change notes.
I've added 2 queries:
- one that detects full SSRF, where an attacker can control the full URL,
which is always bad
- and one for partial SSRF, where an attacker can control parts of an
URL (such as the path, query parameters, or fragment), which is not a
big problem in many cases (but might still be exploitable)
full SSRF should run by default, and partial SSRF should not (but makes
it easy to see the other results).
Some elements of the full SSRF queries needs a bit more polishing, like
being able to detect `"https://" + user_input` is in fact controlling
the full URL.
CWE-185: Incorrect Regular Expression
The software specifies a regular expression in a way that causes data to
be improperly matched or compared.
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/185.html
CWE-186: Overly Restrictive Regular Expression
> A regular expression is overly restrictive, which prevents dangerous values from being detected.
>
> (...) [this CWE] is about a regular expression that does not match all
> values that are intended. (...)
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/186.html
From my understanding,
CWE-625: Permissive Regular Expression, is not applicable. (since this
is about accepting a regex match where there should not be a match).
Relevant for this query:
CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File
> While logging all information may be helpful during development
> stages, it is important that logging levels be set appropriately
> before a product ships so that sensitive user data and system
> information are not accidentally exposed to potential attackers.
