SQL queries often need to use a hardcoded SQL string with a dynamic parameter coming from a user request. Formatting a string to add those parameters to the request is a bad practice as it can result in an SQL injection. The safe way to add parameters to a SQL query is to use SQL binding mechanisms.

When software generates predictable values in a context requiring unpredictability, it may be possible for an attacker to guess the next value that will be generated, and use this guess to impersonate another user or access sensitive information. As the Math.random() function relies on a weak pseudorandom number generator, this function should not be used for security-critical applications or for protecting sensitive data. In such context, a cryptographically strong pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG) should be used instead. For more information checkout the CWE-338 (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/338.html) advisory.

The eval function is extremely dangerous. Because if any user input is not handled correctly and passed to it, it will be possible to execute code remotely in the context of your application (RCE - Remote Code Executuion). For more information checkout the CWE-94 (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/94.html) advisory.

Including content in your site from an untrusted source can expose your users to attackers and even compromise your own site. For that reason, this rule raises an issue for each non-relative URL. For more information checkout the OWASP A1:2017 (https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/2017/A1_2017-Injection.html) advisory.

Sockets are vulnerable in multiple ways: They enable a software to interact with the outside world. As this world is full of attackers it is necessary to check that they cannot receive sensitive information or inject dangerous input.The number of sockets is limited and can be exhausted. Which makes the application unresponsive to users who need additional sockets. In many cases there is no need to open a socket yourself. Use instead libraries and existing protocols For more information checkout the CWE-20 (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/20.html) advisory.

Session storage and local storage are HTML 5 features which allow developers to easily store megabytes of data client-side, as opposed to the 4Kb cookies can accommodate. While useful to speed applications up on the client side, it can be dangerous to store sensitive information this way because the data is not encrypted by default and any script on the page may access it. This rule raises an issue when the localStorage and sessionStorage API's are used. For more information checkout the OWSAP A3:2017 (https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/2017/A3_2017-Sensitive_Data_Exposure.html) advisory.

Sanitizing untrusted URLs is an important technique for preventing attacks such as request forgeries and malicious redirections. Often, this is done by checking that the host of a URL is in a set of allowed hosts. For more information checkout the CWE-20 (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/20.html) advisory.

Browsers allow message exchanges between Window objects of different origins. Because any window can send / receive messages from other window it is important to verify the sender's / receiver's identity: When sending message with postMessage method, the identity's receiver should be defined (the wildcard keyword (*) should not be used).\nWhen receiving message with message event, the sender's identity should be verified using the origin and possibly source properties. For more information checkout the OWASP A2:2017 (https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/2017/A2_2017-Broken_Authentication) and (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage) advisory.
