- Update to 2.0.17:
* Fix the distributed tarball, which didn't include the
key source file due to the earlier file restructure.
* Minor code style fix, which simplifies the code slightly.
* Update date in manual page to 2021. That's important because
the documentation now includes information on `--sarif`.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 1 08:02:30 UTC 2021 - Michael Vetter <mvetter@suse.com>
- Update to 2.0.16:
* The distributed source file is now flawfinder.py, not flawfinder.
This is part of a change that improves
improve cross-platform ease-of-use by using entry_points.
That said, "make install" will still
install it as "flawfinder" (so those who install it via
"make install" will see no change).
* Added support for generating SARIF output, use --sarif.
* Track curly brace level to reduce some problems, my thanks to
* Improved handling of Git patch format

Tue Jan 12 08:39:57 UTC 2021 - Michael Vetter <mvetter@suse.com>
- Update to 2.0.15:
* Fixed some release problems in 2.0.14. (#30)
* Improved handling of LoadLibraryEx; flawfinderr no longer complains
about certain constructs that are known to be safe (eliminating
some false positives).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 11 08:57:48 UTC 2021 - Michael Vetter <mvetter@suse.com>
- Update to 2.0.14:
* If there are >0 hits, tell users how to ignore them as part of the
tool output.
* Various Windows improvments.
Ignore LoadLibraryEx if its third parameter is
LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32, as this is safe, and
remove the rule for InitialCriticalSection
(this is no longer a vulnerability on current widely-used versions
of Windows)
* Various C++ improvements. Add .hpp support for C++,
ignore "system::" to reduce false positives,
treat ' as digit separator when file extension is a C++ file
(for C++14).
* I had some release problems; this is identified as 2.0.14
(skipping a few minor numbers) to ensure that the version
number uniquely identifies a specific release.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 18 10:17:19 UTC 2020 - Michael Vetter <mvetter@suse.com>
- Update to 2.0.11:
* Provide a much more detailed error report, including recommended
solutions, when character encoding problems hit.
As Python3 has slowly gained in popularity, its failure to provide
useful built-ins to handle real-world character encoding problems
hurts more people. (E.g., many files don't comply with *any*
character set encoding standard, and Python3 can't read them
without enabling options that are wrong for others.)
We can at least provide much more detailed feedback to help
explain the various options available.
