Continuous integration/Phan/phan-taint-check-plugin

phan-taint-check-plugin is a Phan plugin meant to use static analysis to find certain types of security vulnerabilities in PHP code.

It can be used on any PHP project, and it has a couple of features specific to MediaWiki code.

This page is just a stub so far, for more information, see README.

Running on Wikimedia Jenkins
You can test any extension in Wikimedia version control by writing a comment  on a gerrit patch. The best way to add taint-check is requiring  >= 0.10.2, and ensuring that the phan CI job is installed for your repo. Note that phan-taint-check should run as part of  within CI without needing to specifically comment.

Running locally
Starting with mediawiki-phan-config 0.10.0, taint-check comes bundled with the default MediaWiki configuration. As such, you should follow the instructions for running phan.

Dependencies
The plugin has the same dependencies as mediawiki-phan-config. Namely:
 * phan/phan (the version is pinned and constantly updated)
 * PHP >= 7.2
 * Optionally, php-ast (install instructions) will make it faster (it worths the pain of compiling/installing the extension!)
