Results - Oct 2020 - version 2.0.11

Summary:

  • Reviewed 2.0.11 (released Oct 1, 2020)
  • perlcritic found 270 files that were OK out of 322 files
  • "gentle" (sev5 only) was used.
    • Sev4 was a lot noisier, and focussed more on visual code-style vs security.

Warnings:

  • 67x "return" statement with explicit "undef" at line NN, column NN. See page 199 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • Unlikely a security thing, but it could result in odd bugs when the result is used in an if( ) statement to see if the result was true or not.
    • The recommendation is a bare return; statement, which "does the right thing" in both an array and a scalar context.
    • https://perlmaven.com/how-to-return-undef-from-a-function
  • 6x Bareword file handle opened at line 135, column 5. See pages 202,204 of PBP.
  • 11x Code before strictures are enabled at line 16, column 1. See page 429 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • use strict was not included in these modules. In some it was commented out.
    • It might be worth mentioning why up near the top of the file where use strict is normally placed.
  • 6x Expression form of "eval" at line 14, column 1. See page 161 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • OK - Evals were all in testing
  • 16x Found use of Switch. This module is deprecated by the Perl 5 Porters at line 13, column 1. Find an alternative module.
  • 1x Glob written as <...> at line 21, column 19. See page 167 of PBP.
    • Not a big deal, only exists in tests. I'm not sure what the best practices are for this.
  • 4x Integer with leading zeros: "00700" at line 395, column 50. See page 58 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • These are probably OK, but the preferred method is oct(700).
    • Note that errorId raw values are specified in the following files and could be specified as named constants:
      • src/perl-lib/OESS/lib/OESS/NSI/Provisioning.pm
      • src/perl-lib/OESS/lib/OESS/NSI/Reservation.pm
  • 1x Nested named subroutine at line 303, column 5. Declaring a named sub inside another named sub does not prevent the inner sub from being global. (Severity: 5)
    • Lexical scoping isn't shared between between _create_flows and _process_links, so this could be moved if it cleans up code.
  • 1x Stricture disabled at line 71, column 13. See page 429 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • I'm not sure if no strict qw(refs) is needed in this case.
    • This file (src/frontend/webservice/idc/nsi.cgi) is a very complex nest of eval's, do's, and die's. I couldn't make sense of this in a short period of time, but it's probably worth considering refactoring this to be more understandable. It's entirely possible that this is actually the best way to approach it, but it's probably worth a look.
  • 5x Two-argument "open" used at line 151, column 5. See page 207 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • These are in setup/webservice files, so they're not a big deal.
  • 1x Use IO::Interactive::is_interactive() instead of -t at line 50, column 9. See page 218 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
    • This is in a vendored dependency, no bug, but worth looking at.
