Analysis Framework

分析框架

For each changed file, evaluate these security dimensions:
针对每个变更文件,从以下安全维度进行评估:

2.1 Input Validation Changes

2.1 输入验证变更

CHECK: Did the change modify input validation?
- Added validation: POSITIVE (verify correctness)

Step 3: Inline Security Comments

步骤3:嵌入式安全注释

Comment Format

注释格式

For each finding, provide a structured inline comment:
markdown
**SECURITY [SEVERITY]**: [Brief description]

**Location**: `file.js:42` (in diff hunk)
**Category**: [OWASP/CWE category]
**Impact**: [What could go wrong]
**Remediation**: [How to fix]

```diff
- // Current (vulnerable)
- db.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = " + userId);
+ // Suggested (safe)
+ db.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1", [userId]);
```
undefined
针对每个发现的问题,提供结构化的嵌入式注释:
markdown
**安全 [严重级别]**:[简要描述]

**位置**`file.js:42`(差异块中)
**分类**:[OWASP/CWE分类]
**影响**:[可能引发的风险]
**修复建议**:[修复方案]

```diff
- // 当前(存在漏洞)
- db.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = " + userId);
+ // 建议(安全写法)
+ db.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1", [userId]);
```
