Hello,

I am writing this message to get feedback from the community on new
findings by static analyzers in Critical Path Packages that have
changed in Fedora 44.

TLDR: This report[1] contains a total of 47352 findings and 843 new
findings identified since Fedora 43. Please review the report and
provide feedback. False positives can now be recorded in the
known-false-positives[5] repository.

A mass scan was performed on the packages that have changed in Fedora
44. This report[1] contains all the findings that have been identified
in the Critical Path Packages. Newly added findings since Fedora 43
are listed under ‘+’ column and these should be prioritized while
reviewing the findings (and fixing them upstream). Not all findings
reported by OpenScanHub may be actual bugs, so please verify reported
findings before investing time into fixing or reporting them. We have
used the current development version of GCC to perform the scans,
which may increase the likelihood of having false positives in the GCC
reports.

False positives can now be recorded in the known-false-positives[5]
repository. These findings are automatically suppressed by OpenScanHub
in scans that are triggered later. Also, you can filter findings with
the csgrep utility to make it easier to review reports that may
contain a large amount of false positives. Examples of csgrep
invocation are available on the Fedora wiki[4].

We hope this is helpful for the packages you maintain and for the
upstream projects. Questions can be asked on the OpenScanHub mailing
list[2]. If you want to see the full logs of the scans, they are
available on the tasks[3] page. User documentation for performing a
scan is available on the Fedora wiki[4].

Please keep the feedback on this thread constructive. Thank you!
