PVS-Studio 7.37: enhanced taint analysis, MISRA version control, SLNX project support, and more

  • The C++ analyzer now detects more critical issues using tainted data flow, including divisions by zero, buffer overflows, bitwise shifts, signed integer overflows, and passing tainted values as arguments. PVS-Studio C# and Java analyzers now factor in tainted data when detecting array overruns, overflows, and possible division by zero.
  • In the C and C++ analyzer, the work with the standard library and support of the C23 language standard was improved.
  • Our team has added the option to select a version of the MISRA C Coding Guidelines standard not only in the Visual Studio plugin but also in PVS-Studio plugins for Visual Studio Code, Qt Creator, CLion, and Rider—plus in the command-line utilities, PVS-Studio_Cmd.exe and pvs-studio-analyzer.
  • The analyzer now supports C++ and C# MSBuild projects that use the SLNX solution format.

PVS-Studio 7.36: expanded MISRA support, plugin for Qt Creator 16, user annotations for C# libraries, and much more

  • PVS-Studio C and C++ analyzer now supports selecting the specific version of the MISRA C and MISRA C++ standards. You can configure this setting in the PVS-Studio plugin for Visual Studio. Supported versions include MISRA C 2012, MISRA C 2023, MISRA C++ 2008 and MISRA C++ 2023.
  • PVS-Studio C# analyzer now supports annotating libraries via a JSON based user annotation mechanism. For more details, please consult the documentation.
  • The PVS-Studio plugin is available for Qt Creator 16.x. PVS-Studio no longer supports the plugin for Qt Creator 10.x versions. We aim to maintain backward compatibility by supporting the latest plugin versions for all Qt Creator versions within two years of each release.
  • The PVS-Studio team introduces a new --apply-pvs-configs flag to the cross-platform utility for analyzing C and C++ projects, pvs-studio-analyzer. This flag enables a mode that automatically searches for and applies the .pvsconfig configuration files for analyzed source files in the directory of the source file and its parent directories, up to the project root folder specified by the --project-root flag. For more details, please consult the documentation.

PVS-Studio 7.35: MISRA C 2023 support, plugin for Qt Creator 15, modified file analysis in Visual Studio, and much more

  • The PVS-Studio team has started working on expanding coverage of the MISRA C standard. We plan to cover at least 85% of MISRA C this year and support the latest version of MISRA C 2023. For more details on MISRA standards in PVS-Studio, welcome to the page.
  • The PVS-Studio plugin is now available for Qt Creator versions 15.x. We have also discontinued support for Qt Creator 9.x versions. We aim to maintain backward compatibility by supporting the latest plugin versions for all Qt Creator versions within two years of each release.
  • We have introduced the modified file analysis mode to the plugin for Visual Studio. Now, in the PVS-Studio_Cmd.exe command line utility, you can use a sub-mode within the modified file analysis mode that analyzes both files modified since the previous analysis run and files that still contain warnings from the previous run. More details on this update can be found in the documentation.
  • The C# analyzer has been optimized for analyzing code blocks with a large number of variable identifiers (500 or more). Previously, they could cause slowdowns during analysis.
