ty ty exactly what I was thinking

does something like this exist for other languages like rust, python or js?



I don't think the Rust ecosystem has that at this time. They're annotating the vulnerabilities with affected functions, but as far as I know nobody's written the static analysis side of it.

https://github.com/rustsec/rustsec/issues/21

Python and JS might be so dynamic that such static analysis just isn't as useful.


For Rust, the advisory database cargo-audit uses (https://github.com/RustSec/advisory-db/) does track which functions are affected by a cve (if provided). I'm not sure if the tool uses them though.
