-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey guys, this is awesome. How did we manage a Coverity scan?
I met their Open Source Strategist David Maxwell at a Google Summer of Code Summit and sweet talked him into scanning the Nmap code base :). Then Kris volunteered to look over their report today and has so far confirmed and fixed a number of issues they identified. So it looks like the effort is paying off, just in time for the stable release :). Here are the types of issues Coverity reported when scanning SOC6 (many of these are, of course, false positives): Defects found : 32 Total 7 DEADCODE 8 FORWARD_NULL 3 NEGATIVE_RETURNS 2 NULL_RETURNS 2 OVERRUN_STATIC 4 RESOURCE_LEAK 2 REVERSE_INULL 1 UNINIT 3 USE_AFTER_FREE Cheers, -F _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
