Buffer overrun
Buffer underrun

Tainted buffer access

Type overrun
Type underrun

Pointer before beginning of object
Pointer past end of object

A collection of warning classes that report uses of library functions prone to internal buffer overflows.

Compass/ROSE

Could be configured to catch violations of this rule. The way to catch the noncompliant code example is to first hunt for example code that follows this pattern:

   for (LPWSTR pwszTemp = pwszPath + 2; *pwszTemp != L'\\';
*pwszTemp++;)

In particular, the iteration variable is a pointer, it gets incremented, and the loop condition does not set an upper bound on the pointer. Once this case is handled, ROSE can handle cases like the real noncompliant code example, which is effectively the same semantics, just different syntax

OVERRUN

NEGATIVE_RETURNS

ARRAY_VS_SINGLETON

BUFFER_SIZE

Can detect the access of memory past the end of a memory buffer/array

Can detect when the loop bound may become negative

Can detect the out-of-bound read/write to array allocated statically or dynamically

Can detect buffer overflows

arrayIndexOutOfBounds, outOfBounds, negativeIndex, arrayIndexThenCheck, arrayIndexOutOfBoundsCond,  possibleBufferAccessOutOfBounds

Context sensitive analysis of array index, pointers, etc.

Array index out of bounds

Buffer overflow when calling various functions memset,strcpy,..

Warns about condition (a[i] == 0 && i < unknown_value) and recommends that (i < unknown_value && a[i] == 0) is used instead

Detects unsafe code when array is accessed before/after it is tested if the array index is out of bounds

Array access out of bounds, Array access with tainted index, Pointer access out of bounds, Pointer dereference with tainted offset, Use of tainted pointer

Array index outside bounds during array access

Array index from unsecure source possibly outside array bounds

Pointer dereferenced outside its bounds

Offset is from an unsecure source and dereference may be out of bounds

Pointer from an unsecure source may be NULL or point to unknown memory
