Flake8 Secure Coding Standard Plugin
flake8 plugin that enforces some secure coding standards.
Installation
pip install flake8-secure-coding-standard
Flake8 codes
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| SCS100 | Use of os.path.abspath() and os.path.relpath() should be avoided in favor of os.path.realpath() |
| SCS101 | Use of eval() and exec() represent a security risk and should be avoided |
| SCS102 | Use of os.system() should be avoided |
| SCS103 | Use of shell=True in subprocess functions or use of functions that internally set this should be avoided |
| SCS104 | Use of tempfile.mktemp() should be avoided, prefer tempfile.mkstemp() |
| SCS105 | Use of yaml.load() should be avoided, prefer yaml.safe_load() or yaml.load(xxx, Loader=SafeLoader) |
| SCS106 | Use of jsonpickle.decode() should be avoided |
| SCS107 | Use of debugging code should not be present in production code (e.g. import pdb) |
| SCS108 | assert statements should not be present in production code |
| SCS109 | Use of builtin open for writing is discouraged in favor of os.open to allow for setting file permissions |
| SCS110 | Avoid using os.popen() as it internally uses subprocess.Popen with shell=True |
| SCS111 | Use of shlex.quote() should be avoided on non-POSIX platforms |
| SCS112 | Avoid using os.open() with unsafe file permissions |
| SCS113 | Avoid using pickle.load() and pickle.loads() |
| SCS114 | Avoid using marshal.load() and marshal.loads() |
| SCS115 | Avoid using shelve.open() |
| SCS116 | Avoid using os.mkdir and os.makedirs with unsafe file permissions |
| SCS117 | Avoid using os.mkfifo with unsafe file permissions |
| SCS118 | Avoid using os.mknod with unsafe file permissions |
| SCS119 | Avoid using os.chmod with unsafe file permissions (W ^ X for group and others) |
Plugin configuration options
This plugin supports some configuration options that may either be specified directly on the command line with a flag
using the option name as --name or by specifying them in one of flake8's configuration files (ie. pyproject.toml,
setup.cfg, .flake8, etc.).
Available options:
| Option name | Option type | Default value | Related error code |
|---|---|---|---|
| os-open-mode | mode-like | 0 (off) | SCS112 |
| os-mkdir-mode | mode-like | 0 (off) | SCS116 |
| os-mkfifo-mode | mode-like | 0 (off) | SCS117 |
| os-mknod-mode | mode-like | 0 (off) | SCS118 |
Mode-like options
Mode-like options are configuration options for errors/warnings that relate to some function that accepts a mode
parameter (or similar) that control some file or directory permissions. For those kind of options, the plugin
understands a variety of values that must be specified as string. They will then be parsed into a list of allowed mode
values:
- Any positive, non-zero (octal or decimal) integer value specifies the maximum value for the mode value
- A comma-separated list of (octal or decimal) integers indicates the list of allowed mode values
- 'y', 'yes', 'true' (case-insensitive) will turn on the warnings using the default value of
0o755 - 'n', 'no', 'false' (case-insensitive) will turn off the warnings
Example of values (for pyproject.toml):
[tool.flake8]
os-open-mode = '0' # check disabled
os-open-mode = 'no' # check disabled
os-open-mode = '493' # all modes from 0 to 493 (=0o755)
os-open-mode = '0o755' # all modes from 0 to 0o755
os-open-mode = '0o755,' # only 0o755 (notice the comma)
os-open-mode = '0o644,0o755' # only 0o644 and 0o755
You can also specify those options directly on the command line:
python3 -m flake8 --os-open-mode='0o755'
