Tainted data flows into a string format instruction.
Checks for this class use the CodeSonar C# taint analysis. See Taint Tracking for CodeSonar C# Warning Classes for more information on this analysis, including lists of the methods that CodeSonar automatically recognizes as relevant and information about specifying additional methods that CodeSonar should recognize as taint sources, sinks, or sanitizers.
Use configuration parameter CSHARP_ANALYSIS_ADVANCED_INJECTION to specify the level of checking to perform for this and other taint-related warning classes:
| Class Name | Format String Injection (C#) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Significance | security | |||
| Mnemonic | CSHARP.IO.INJ.FMT | |||

| Enabling | Checks for this warning class are enabled by
default. To disable them, add the following WARNING_FILTER rule to the
project configuration file.
WARNING_FILTER += discard class="Format String Injection (C#)" |
Verify that a security error actually corresponds to unconstrained information flow from source locations into sink locations. If this is the case, add a sanitizing algorithm to clean data before it flows into sinks, or use safe statements to propagate data inside the program.
The following configuration file parameters affect checks for this warning class.
