bandit VS Pipenv

Bandit is a tool designed to find common security issues in Python code. It was developed by the OpenStack Security Project and is a great addition to any serious Python project.

For the SAST stage, I used SonarQube tool. SonarQube is an open-source platform developed by SonarSource for continuous inspection of code quality to perform automatic reviews with static analysis of code to detect bugs and code smells on more than 30 programming languages. I preferred SonarQube instead of other SAST tools because it has a detailed documentation and plugins about integration with Jenkins and SonarQube works with Java projects pretty well. Of course you can similar multi-language-supported tools such as Semgrep or language-specific tools such as Bandit.

On the other hand, Bandit is a dedicated security scanner designed to target critical security concerns such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting exploits. It meticulously scrutinizes the codebase to identify and alert developers about possible security breaches or vulnerabilities, thus fortifying the code against potential exploitation.

Bandit: is a tool designed for Python applications to analyse your code for potential security issues like insecure use of functions, hardcoded password and much more.

pipenv solves this by having both kinds of requirement files: Pipfile lists package names and known constraints on which versions can be used, while Pipfile.lock gives specific package versions with hashes. Theoretically the Pipfile (and its lockfile) format were supposed to be a standard that many different tools could use, but I haven't seen it get adopted much outside of pipenv itself, so I'm not sure if it's really going to catch on.

* Tons of longstanding bugs that fail to be resolved in any sort of timely manner like this one: https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/issues/2413

I am sick and tired of the python packaging space pushing this godawful tool for Python. Please just use pip-tools or poetry instead.

ℹ️ You may use a different virtual environment manager like Pipenv or poetry.

Hey lua would you mind looking at this question for me? https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/discussions/5411

Alternatively, you can look into Pipenv, which has a lot more tools to develop secure applications with.
