bandit VS pyupgrade

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.

Bandit (for Python, open-source and free)

Add security checks (Bandit) and dependency checks (safety)

flake8-bandit which uses bandit for security linting.

pyupgrade and flynt are examples of tools that modify your code base from earlier python versions into the newest python syntax, rewriting all string formats into f-strings and similar things.

pyupgrade - A tool (and pre-commit hook) to automatically upgrade syntax for newer versions of the language.

He made yesqa and pyupgrade (among others), and also works on flake8. His main job is for https://sentry.io/.

That's a decade to make a 30 second change. Add something like https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade to your pre-commit hooks and you won't even need 25 of those seconds.

There is also pyupgrade: https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade

pyupgrade is a useful tool that can help you find some of these things.

and last a little plug or two -- because I do this all for free and despite millions benefiting I receive zero proportional benefit from the maintenance work I put in -- consider sponsoring or maybe check out pre-commit.ci which would have automatically fixed this problem for you a year and a half ago

Running https://github.com/adamchainz/django-upgrade with https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade recursively will give an idea about how much work is there on Django side. Still, there may have dependency on third party libraries (both django+python). Another thing to consider is which role Django performing here, serving APIs or html views. As good test coverage is already there, you are on lucky side.

Such goodness here and even points to an interesting project I’d never heard of for automated “de-deprecation”

I do would like to recommend pyupgrade. Just pip install as expected and then run pyupgrade --py310-plus to drag your code kicking and screaming into $CURRENT_YEAR. Or at least into whatever version you're using :)
