Finds Security Vulnerabilities: Detects OWASP Top 10, injection attacks, authentication issues, and framework-specific vulnerabilities Tracks Data Flow: Follows untrusted data from sources to sinks to identify injection points Analyzes Architecture: Builds dependency graphs, detects cycles, and measures code complexity Detects Refactoring Issues: Identifies incomplete migrations, API contract mismatches, and cross-stack inconsistencies Runs Industry-Standard Tools: Orchestrates ESLint, Ruff, MyPy, and other trusted linters Produces AI-Ready Reports: Generates chunked, structured output optimized for LLM consumption Read and analyze security vulnerabilities- SQL injection, XSS attacks, hardcoded passwords Write these findings to disk- Creating reports with exact code snippets as evidence Process files rapidly- Scanning entire codebases in parallel for efficiency This interaction with antivirus software is not a flaw in TheAuditor - it's proof that both your AV and our scanner are doing exactly what they're designed to do: identify and handle potentially dangerous code patterns.
