Last time, we discussed common approaches to detecting vulnerabilities in applications. This time, we'll take a more down-to-earth look at how we've implemented these mechanisms in our...
In 2024, we've analyzed a wealth of projects, sharing our discoveries on our blog. Now it's New Year's Eve—it's time to tell festive tales! We've collected the most intriguing Java errors detected...
We all know the risks that vulnerabilities pose: application crashes, data loss, or privacy breaches. In this article, we'll look at examples that illustrate the core aspects of an approach...
Years pass, and projects overgrow dark spots that nobody wants to venture into—they're too tricky and prone to failure. Today, we're diving into refactoring legacy code with OOP. And we're gonna...

Static analysis is a robust tool that helps developers to control code quality. Let's try to develop a simple analyzer for Lua using Java and see what's under the static analyzer...
How can you detect potential errors yet at the development stage? The technology of static analysis helps to answer this question. We will explore what it is and how it works using the example of a modern code analyzer, PVS-Studio. We will consider practical examples o…
OOP is wonderful. Programmers usually criticize those who don't follow this paradigm, while the knowledge of patterns is often a must. However, even the right approach doesn't completely protect...
What if common knowledge is actually more nuanced, and old familiar things like Double-checked locking are quite controversial? Examining the code of real projects gives this kind of thought. In...
In most cases, you can solve a task in an intuitive, procedural way. However, the simplest option isn't always the best. I invite you to take a look at a real-world example of transforming a...
While reviewing code or working on a new project, we can get annoyed by many things: style, approaches, quality. However, the most frustrating is the trite lack of code hygiene. Since the issue...
