semgrep 1.66.0

Release v1.66.0

on Python PyPI

1.66.0 - 2024-03-19

Added

• Added information about interfile pre-processing to --max-memory help. (gh-9932)
• We've implemented basic support for the yield keyword in Python. The Pro
  engine now detects taint findings from taint sources returned by the yield
  keyword. (saf-281)

Changed

• osemgrep --remote will no longer clone into a tmp folder, but instead the CWD (cdx-remote)

• [IMPORTANT] Inter-file differential scanning is now enabled for all Pro users.

  Inter-file differential scanning is now enabled for all Pro users. While it may
  take longer than intra-file differential scanning, which is the current default
  for pro users, it offers deeper analysis of dataflow paths compared to
  intra-file differential scanning. Additionally, it is significantly faster
  than non-differential inter-file scanning, with scan times reduced to
  approximately 1/10 of the non-differential inter-file scan. Users who
  enable the pro engine and engage in differential PR scans on GitHub or
  GitLab may experience the impact of this update. If needed, users can
  revert to the previous intra-file differential scan behavior by configuring
  the --no-interfile-diff-scan command-line option. (saf-268)

Fixed

• The official semgrep docker image does not contain anymore the
  bash, jq, and curl utilities, to reduce its attack surface. (saf-861)
