Drupal does not currently have a static application security test (SAST) as part of its automated testing. While the results of SAST can require some human review, they can be a good way to gain confidence and catch bugs in a codebase. This is a strong practice recommended by the Open Source Security Foundation (see also π Get an Open Source Security Foundation badge for Drupal (core? contrib?) Needs review ).
The initial run of any tool will likely create a lengthy report. We'll want a tool where we can configure or train it to ignore false positives. Any true positives will have to follow the normal coordinated vulnerability disclosure process. Then if we run it periodically before releasing any valid vulnerabilities it finds the issues can be fixed in public.
Then implement it.
Picking a tool.
Implementing it.
