Supported FP Rules

A "false positive rule" is defined as a rule that reliably identifies incorrect SAST findings, basically alerts on code that is not actually vulnerable.

All FP rules meet the following criteria:

  • High confidence that the finding is a false positive

  • Tested against real-world code samples to avoid suppressing true positives

  • Clear explanation is provided for why the finding is considered a false positive

Here are the categories of FP rules that Mobb currently supports. If there's an FP pattern you'd like to see added, please contact us at [email protected].

Since different SAST tools may report false positives under inconsistent names, the issue names shown are normalized by Mobb.
