`com.ctc.wstx.stax.WstxInputFactory` overrides `createXMLStreamReader`,
`createXMLEventReader` and `setProperty` from `XMLInputFactory`, so the
existing `XmlInputFactory` model in `XmlParsers.qll` does not match calls
where the static receiver type is `WstxInputFactory` (or its supertype
`org.codehaus.stax2.XMLInputFactory2`). Woodstox is vulnerable to XXE in
its default configuration, so these missed sinks were false negatives in
`java/xxe`.
This adds a scoped framework model under
`semmle/code/java/frameworks/woodstox/WoodstoxXml.qll` (registered in the
`Frameworks` module of `XmlParsers.qll`) that recognises these calls as
XXE sinks and treats the factory as safe when both
`javax.xml.stream.supportDTD` and
`javax.xml.stream.isSupportingExternalEntities` are disabled — mirroring
the existing `XMLInputFactory` safe-configuration logic.
secretQuestion is ambiguous: it could be the question text (not
sensitive) or a security question answer. Worse, the regex
secrets?(question) also matches secretQuestionAnswer, which is
clearly sensitive. Drop it to avoid false negatives.
- Clarify that arithmeticUsedInBoundsCheck applies to if-condition
comparisons, not all comparisons
- Update expected test line numbers to reflect added test calls
The java/tainted-arithmetic query now recognizes when an arithmetic
expression appears directly as an operand of a comparison (e.g.,
`if (off + len > array.length)`). Such expressions are bounds checks,
not vulnerable computations, and are excluded via the existing
overflowIrrelevant predicate.
Add test cases for bounds-checking patterns that should not be flagged.
- Model Signature.getInstance() as CryptoAlgoSpec sink (previously only
Signature constructor was modeled)
- Add HMAC-based algorithms (HMACSHA1/256/384/512, HmacSHA1/256/384/512)
and PBKDF2 to the secure algorithm whitelist
- Fix XDH/X25519/X448 tests to use KeyAgreement.getInstance() instead of
KeyPairGenerator.getInstance() to match their key agreement semantics
- Add test cases for SHA384withECDSA, HMACSHA*, and PBKDF2WithHmacSHA1
from user-reported false positives
- Update change note to document all additions
