semgrep-rules

The semgrep-rules repository provides a curated set of Semgrep rules specifically designed for vulnerability research in C and C++ codebases. Its primary use case involves static analysis to detect various security vulnerabilities, such as the use of insecure API functions and potential buffer overflows, thereby enhancing code security. Notable features include easy integration with Semgrep for scanning, support for generating outputs in SARIF format for further analysis, and a focus on high-priority vulnerability detection.
