Mass assignment is not restricted using attr_accessible Open
class SurveyDeployment < ActiveRecord::Base
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This warning comes up if a model does not limit what attributes can be set through mass assignment.
In particular, this check looks for attr_accessible
inside model definitions. If it is not found, this warning will be issued.
Brakeman also warns on use of attr_protected
- especially since it was found to be vulnerable to bypass. Warnings for mass assignment on models using attr_protected
will be reported, but at a lower confidence level.
Note that disabling mass assignment globally will suppress these warnings.

This cop checks that the ABC size of methods is not higher than the configured maximum. The ABC size is based on assignments, branches (method calls), and conditions. See http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?AbcMetric

This cop checks that the cyclomatic complexity of methods is not higher than the configured maximum. The cyclomatic complexity is the number of linearly independent paths through a method. The algorithm counts decision points and adds one.
An if statement (or unless or ?:) increases the complexity by one. An else branch does not, since it doesn't add a decision point. The && operator (or keyword and) can be converted to a nested if statement, and ||/or is shorthand for a sequence of ifs, so they also add one. Loops can be said to have an exit condition, so they add one.

This cop tries to produce a complexity score that's a measure of the
complexity the reader experiences when looking at a method. For that
reason it considers when
nodes as something that doesn't add as much
complexity as an if
or a &&
. Except if it's one of those special
case
/when
constructs where there's no expression after case
. Then
the cop treats it as an if
/elsif
/elsif
... and lets all the when
nodes count. In contrast to the CyclomaticComplexity cop, this cop
considers else
nodes as adding complexity.
Example:
def my_method # 1
if cond # 1
case var # 2 (0.8 + 4 * 0.2, rounded)
when 1 then func_one
when 2 then func_two
when 3 then func_three
when 4..10 then func_other
end
else # 1
do_something until a && b # 2
end # ===
end # 7 complexity points

This cop checks for the use of Time methods without zone.
Built on top of Ruby on Rails style guide (https://github.com/bbatsov/rails-style-guide#time) and the article http://danilenko.org/2012/7/6/rails_timezones/ .
Two styles are supported for this cop. When EnforcedStyle is 'strict' then only use of Time.zone is allowed.
When EnforcedStyle is 'flexible' then it's also allowed to use Time.intimezone.
Example:
# always offense
Time.now
Time.parse('2015-03-02 19:05:37')
# no offense
Time.zone.now
Time.zone.parse('2015-03-02 19:05:37')
# no offense only if style is 'flexible'
Time.current
DateTime.strptime(str, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M %Z").in_time_zone
Time.at(timestamp).in_time_zone
