# MediaWiki Security Check Plugin changelog

## v3.2.1
### Bug fixes
* Fixed a crash observed when using the polyfill parser
* Fixed two crashes introduced with the 3.2.0 release

### Internal changes
* Bumped phan/phan to 3.2.6

## v3.2.0
### New features
* Variadic parameters are now properly handled
* Array keys are now tracked separately from values
* (MW) Properly track taintedness of array keys in some HTMLForm specifiers
* Created new taint types and issues for RCE and path traversal: `SecurityCheck-RCE` and `SecurityCheck-PathTraversal`
* Added detection for ReDoS vulnerabilities. New issue: `SecurityCheck-ReDoS`
* The plugin can now properly analyze assignments with an array at the LHS
* Array shapes are now tracked more precisely when a key that cannot be determined statically is found

## v3.1.1
### Internal changes
* Allow installing the plugin in PHP 8. Analyzing code with new PHP 8 features is not supported yet (T269263)

## v3.1.0
### New features
* Increased the length limit for caused-by lines. The new limit is at 12 entries, rather than fixed at 255 characters (it was roughly doubled)
* Caused-by lines are now stored together with a taintedness value, which allows filtering taintedness depending on the sink type
* Handle a few more edge cases in foreach loops. Notably, class properties used as key or value are now
  properly analyzed, and caused-by lines now include sources of taintedness outside the loop.
* The plugin now filters taintedness based on the (real) type of variables using `if` conditions,
  parameters and return type declarations.
* Binops are now properly analysed, removing taintedness if the operation is safe.
* Caused-by lines for function calls now include a code snippet with the argument, together with its ordinal.
* Added an annotation to print the taintedness of a variable (use it with `'@phan-debug-var-taintedness $varname'`)
* Added taint data for a bunch of built-in functions

### Bug fixes
* (MW) Fixed a crash observed when using `$this` as hook handler
* Fixed an edge case that made the plugin crash when attempting to use an undeclared variable as a
  callable
* Fixed a bug that caused the same issue to be reported on multiple lines, hence creating redundant
  warnings, making it difficult to suppress them all.
* (MW) Avoid crash when Hooks::run has no arguments array
* Fixed an edge case where literal integers/strings weren't recognized as integers/strings; this brings improved tracking of SQL_NUMKEY.
* (MW) Fixed incorrect taint data for Sanitizer::removeHTMLtags (T268353)
* Slightly improved performance for recursive methods (analysis is not attempted, rather than letting it reach the recursion limit of 5)

### Internal changes
* Taintedness is now stored in a value object, rather than a plain integer.
* Function taintedness is now stored in a value object, rather than an array of integers.
* Issue descriptions now use phan templates, which notably adds support for selective colorizing.
* (MW) The plugin no longer forces types for MW globals in non-standalone mode. This is now done by mediawiki-phan-config.
* Plugin classes were moved to the `SecurityCheckPlugin` namespace.
* Bumped phan/phan to 3.2.4

## v3.0.4
### New features
* Added explicit taint info for `LinkRenderer::makeBrokenLink`
* Added explicit taint info for `shell_exec` and friends
* The plugin is now able to properly analyze conditionals, and merge the possible taints of each branch
* The plugin can now analyze pass by reference variables better
* Added support for analyzing each array element on its own

### Bug fixes
* Fixed several plugin crashes observed when analyzing weird syntax
* Fixed a crash observed with non-literal keys in getQueryInfo methods (T268055)

### Internal changes
* Bumped phan/phan to 3.0.3
* The plugin is now using PluginV3
