We can't understand the real `six.py` file, so we have some internal plumbing
that enables us to handle six anyway. While updating that, I had a hell of a lot
of trouble with these tests.
What we actually want, is to see that we can understand what the values imported
from six are (i.e., their points-to information). I added a few more, that I
think would be useful. If we can figure out all of these, I don't actually care
if we're doing it by understanding the real `six.py` file, or by some internal
trick.
I verified that we don't get results with the real `six.py` file by disabling
our internal tricks, and putting a copy of six.py just next to test.py.
We used to have an other file that would list all the properties we knew and
their value, but that turned out to be a fragile and annoying test, since the
results differed from which version of python you ran it with (3.5 vs 3.8) and
which machine you ran it on (my machien vs jenkins). I don't care about the
results in this file, and I can certainly not eyeball it to see if it's correct
or not.
Adds
- `StringValue` as a new class,
- `Value::booleanValue` which returns the boolean interpretation of the given
value, and
- `ClassValue::str` which returns the value of the `str` class, depending on the
Python version.
Some of the tests currently fail, since they can't reproduce the old tests
results (since the sinks/sources defined in the library code are not
HttpResponseTaintSink/HttpRequestTaintSource)
Our definition of `toString` for the internal tuple objects we create during the
points-to analysis may have been a _tad_ too ambitious. In particular, it can
easily lead to non-termination, e.g. using the following piece of code:
```python
x = ()
while True:
x = (x, x)
```
This commit cuts off the infinite recursion by replacing _nested_ tuples with
the string "...". In particular this means even non-recursive tuples will be cut
off at that point, so that the following tuples
```python
(1, "2")
((3, 4), [5, 6])
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
```
Get the following string representations.
```
"(int 1, '2', )"
"(..., List, )"
"(int 1, int 2, int 3, 2 more...)"
```
They are not tainted in assignment, only in use.
I also adopted an attempt at a better test-setup, where it's easy to see if
everything is the way you hoped for, instead of browsing through 100 of lines of
taint-step output :P
