Informationen zu Codescans mit CodeQL

Du kannst CodeQL verwenden, um Sicherheitsrisiken und Fehler in deinem Code zu identifizieren. Die Ergebnisse werden als code scanning-Warnungen auf GitHub angezeigt.

Wer kann dieses Feature verwenden?

Code scanning ist für organisationseigene Repositorys in GitHub Enterprise Server verfügbar. Dieses Feature erfordert eine Lizenz für GitHub Advanced Security. Weitere Informationen findest du unter Informationen zu GitHub Advanced Security.

Note: Your site administrator must enable code scanning for your GitHub Enterprise Server instance before you can use this feature. For more information, see "Configuring code scanning for your appliance."

You may not be able to enable or disable code scanning if an enterprise owner has set a GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) policy at the enterprise level. For more information, see "Enforcing policies for code security and analysis for your enterprise."

About code scanning with CodeQL

CodeQL is the code analysis engine developed by GitHub to automate security checks. You can analyze your code using CodeQL and display the results as code scanning alerts.

There are two main ways to use CodeQL analysis for code scanning:

On GitHub Enterprise Server 3.8, the CodeQL action uses CodeQL CLI version 2.12.7 by default. We recommend that you use the same version of the CodeQL CLI if you run analysis in an external CI system.

For information about code scanning alerts, see "About code scanning alerts."

About CodeQL

CodeQL treats code like data, allowing you to find potential vulnerabilities in your code with greater confidence than traditional static analyzers.

  1. You generate a CodeQL database to represent your codebase.
  2. Then you run CodeQL queries on that database to identify problems in the codebase.
  3. The query results are shown as code scanning alerts in GitHub Enterprise Server when you use CodeQL with code scanning.

CodeQL supports both compiled and interpreted languages, and can find vulnerabilities and errors in code that's written in the supported languages.

  • C/C++
  • C#
  • Go
  • Java
  • JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Python
  • Ruby

Notes:

  • Use javascript to analyze code written in JavaScript, TypeScript or both.

For more information, see the documentation on the CodeQL website: "Supported languages and frameworks."

About CodeQL queries

GitHub experts, security researchers, and community contributors write and maintain the default CodeQL queries used for code scanning. The queries are regularly updated to improve analysis and reduce any false positive results.

Writing your own queries

The queries are open source, so you can view and contribute to the queries in the github/codeql repository. For more information, see "About CodeQL queries" in the CodeQL documentation.

Running additional queries

If you are scanning your code with advanced setup or an external CI system, you can run additional queries as part of your analysis. These queries must belong to a published CodeQL query pack (beta) or a CodeQL pack in a repository. CodeQL packs (beta) provide the following benefits over traditional QL packs:

  • When a CodeQL query pack (beta) is published to the GitHub Container registry, all the transitive dependencies required by the queries and a compilation cache are included in the package. This improves performance and ensures that running the queries in the pack gives identical results every time until you upgrade to a new version of the pack or the CLI.
  • QL packs do not include transitive dependencies, so queries in the pack can depend only on the standard libraries (that is, the libraries referenced by an import LANGUAGE statement in your query), or libraries in the same QL pack as the query.
  • CodeQL query packs (beta) can be downloaded from multiple GitHub container registries. For more information, see "Customizing code scanning."
