New features added in 1903

Source code analysis

• The new third-generation source code analysis engine was designed with scalability and extendibility in mind, and provides extended coverage for web applications and more advanced analysis for JavaScript files. However, these improvements may result in slightly longer analysis time.
• The third-generation source code analysis engine also brings first-class support for customized rule packages. Users can now use custom identification rules across analysis engines with the same granularity as the built-in rules. As a result, the new source code analysis engine is not compatible with custom identification rules designed for previous generations of source code analysis engines.

Binary analysis

• Performance improvements when using Comprehensive Analysis on applications with large binary files.

Remediation

• Stability and performance improvements when generating the remediated source code of very large applications.

Interfaces

• We fixed a bug where the batch delete function on the Web UI returns DATA_ERROR even when the operation completed successfully.
