This required quite some changes in the expected output. I think it's much more
clear what the selected nodes are now 👍 (but it was a bit boring work to fix
this up)
Which I had done locally. Problem is the same about not having PostUpdateNode
when points-to is not able to resolve the call, so I'm happy to just make CI
happy right now, and hopefully we'll get a fix to the underlying problem soon 😊
The problem with `tainted_filelike` not having taint, is that in the call
`ujson.dump(tainted_obj, tainted_filelike)`
there is no PostUpdateNote for `tainted_filelike` :( The reason is that
points-to is not able to resolve the call, so none of the clauses in
`argumentPreUpdateNode` matches
See 08731fc6cf/python/ql/src/semmle/python/dataflow/new/internal/DataFlowPrivate.qll (L101-L111)
Let's deal with that issue in an other PR though
I noticed that we don't handle PostUpdateNote very well in the concept tests,
for exmaple for `json.dump(...)` there _should_ have been an `encodeOutput` as
part of the inline expectations.
I'll work on fixing that up in a separate PR, to keep things clean.
This PR was rebased on newest main, but was written a long time ago when all the
framework test-files were still in experimental. I have not re-written my local
git-history, since there are MANY updates to those files (and I dare not risk
it).
For RSA it's unclear what the algorithm name should even be. Signatures based on
RSA private keys with PSS scheme is ok, but with pkcs#1 v1.5 they are
weak/vulnerable. So clearly just putting RSA as the algorithm name is not enough
information...
and that problem is also why I wanted to do this commit separetely (to call
extra atten to this).
The meat of this PR is described in the new python/ql/test/experimental/meta/InlineTaintTest.qll file:
> Defines a InlineExpectationsTest for checking whether any arguments in
> `ensure_tainted` and `ensure_not_tainted` calls are tainted.
>
> Also defines query predicates to ensure that:
> - if any arguments to `ensure_not_tainted` are tainted, their annotation is marked with `SPURIOUS`.
> - if any arguments to `ensure_tainted` are not tainted, their annotation is marked with `MISSING`.
>
> The functionality of this module is tested in `ql/test/experimental/meta/inline-taint-test-demo`.
