Cryptographic APIs misuses #5

I'm a PhD student interested in finding security vulnerabilities in open source projects.

We found a total of 103 warnings (indicating potential vulnerabilities) when running the CogniCrypt static analyzer (*) on defo-ech-apps (or its library dependencies). We documented each one of these issues in private gists for the sake of confidentiality (non-disclosure).

Can you please let us know whether we can share these gists with you? We are eager to evaluate the perception of developers (e.g. severity of these warnings) and improve defo-ech-apps's security, and the quality of the reports of static analysis tools.

Sadly, i think this important issue is getting less attention. I guess there is some different procedure for vulnurablity reporting or maybe this is less attention project (its experimental). I will search for it and list if there are any method to report such thing. Thanks for your finding.
