Our Static Analysis can handle very large COBOL Programs. Until now the largest program we analyzed was 193 MLOC in a single file. Example of vulnerabilities categories that can be detected for COBOL:

  •       Access Control Database, Access Control DLI, Access Control MQSeries

  •       Improper use of pointers

  •       Deprecated, Unsupported or Obsolete Functions

  •       Avoid dumping system information, Avoid debug statements, Log forging, DLI Log Forging

  •       Code Injection, Command Injection, Queue Resource Injection

  •       Cross-Site Scripting, UTF-7 Cross-Site Scripting, Stored Cross Site Scripting

Security Decisions Via Untrusted Inputs

  •       Avoid non-portable statements

  •       Avoid runtime subroutine calls, Call Settings Manipulation, Dynamic Code, Native Code/Library

  •       Improper use of RANDOM

  •       Poor error handling regarding: Ignored error condition, Multiple HANDLE ABEND, RESP, NOHANDLE

  • Unsafe FILE STATUS

  •       Data truncation in MOVE

  •       SQL Abuse (SQL Injection, SQL bad commands, System Variables manipulation, etc.)

  •       Unsupported DBMS

  •       EXEC CICS WEB Abuse

    Header, Session or Cookies manipulation, HTTP Response Splitting/Tampering, URL Redirect,

File Upload, File Download, Server-Side Request Forgery, etc.)

  •       Information Leakage, Log Forging

  •       Privacy Violation

  •       Password management/hardened credentials mistakes

  •       Authentication mistakes

  •       Code Injection, Command Injection, Resource Injection, XML Injection, File Injection

  •       File Path manipulation

  •       Invalid Process Control, Invalid Systems Calls, Dangerous COBOL/System commands

  •       Unsecure Communications (missed SSL, Outgoing FTP, etc.)

  • Crypto-related vulnerabilities

  • CICS System Programming issues

  • XML parsing issues

  •       Misconfigurations

  •       Insecure Cryptography

  •       Poor Input Validation

  •       Integer Overflow

  •       Unused Parameter, Unused Label, Unused PERFORM, Unused data structures

Security

Once the analysis is terminated, you can view and manage the results. You can mark some vulnerabilities as False Positive, Suppress Vulnerabilities, and you can add Notes or change the Vulnerability’ Status.
