Release notes

Sourced from SonarAnalyzer.CSharp's releases.

9.6

This release introduces 3 new security-related rules for VB.NET and improves the precision of their existing C# versions by migrating them to the new symbolic execution engine. This version also includes a new code fix and fixes for false negative issues. Kudos to @​Corniel for his contribution by implementing a codefix for S125 (SonarSource/sonar-dotnet#313)

New Rules

• 7560 - [VB.NET] New rule S2053: Hashes should include an unpredictable salt
• 7562 - [VB.NET] New rule S3329: Cipher Block Chaining IVs should be unpredictable
• 7565 - [VB.NET] New Rule S5773: Types allowed to be deserialized should be restricted

Improvements

• 7424 - [VB.NET] Merge rule S2373 onto S119 (S2373 is now deprecated)
• 313 - [C#] Rule S125: Add a code fix to remove the commented code

False Negative

• 7617 - [C#, VB.NET] Fix S2053 FN: Encoding.GetBytes
• 7547 - [C#, VB.NET] Fix S6588 FN: Rule should cover case with epoch ticks

9.5

Release 9.5 introduces 9 new rules for C# and VB.NET developers, providing guidelines and best practices for handling date and time operations within their applications. These rules cover a wide range of topics, including time zone conventions, common pitfalls, date parsing and formatting, time arithmetic, and more.

This release includes also one additional security rule and introduces fixes for false negatives and false positives.

Thanks to @​Corniel for his contribution by implementing a new codefix for S6610 (#7517) and fixing a FP in S6354 (#7504).
