From 06854d81642feefdd4dd8bdf406c0dda026d0235 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "russell@unturf.com" Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2026 16:26:30 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] wave24 survey: 10 clean-scan additions (5th full-clean wave) lighttpd1.4, stunnel, arangodb, zookeeper, vault, abiword, gnumeric, maxima, lmms, hydrogen all clean. Honor roll cumulative: 154 projects. ArangoDB 2298 M1 are 100% vendored UI bundles (boost/plotly, swagger-ui, jquery-ui, ace). Vault 195 M1 are Ember.js codemods (build-time refactor). Maxima 536 M1 are Lisp (member ...) graph/algebra primitives (intentional algorithms). Hydrogen 64 M7 are Qt QRect::contains geometric ops + QSet. Three more scanner enhancement candidates queued (Qt .contains family awareness, Lisp member algorithm awareness, vendored UI tree suppression). --- ...ve24-web-tls-multimodel-wp-audio-survey.md | 93 +++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 93 insertions(+) create mode 100644 whitepaper/outreach/wave24-web-tls-multimodel-wp-audio-survey.md diff --git a/whitepaper/outreach/wave24-web-tls-multimodel-wp-audio-survey.md b/whitepaper/outreach/wave24-web-tls-multimodel-wp-audio-survey.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..b51a1b00c --- /dev/null +++ b/whitepaper/outreach/wave24-web-tls-multimodel-wp-audio-survey.md @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +# Wave 24 — Web Server, TLS Proxy, Multi-Model DB, Word Processor, Audio Production + +**Survey date:** 2026-04-25 +**Tool:** unmoad (9 active MOAD detectors, HIGH+ severity filter) +**Scope:** 10 projects across smaller web servers (lighttpd), TLS proxy (stunnel), multi-model database (arangodb), distributed coordination (zookeeper), secret store (vault), word processing (abiword), spreadsheet (gnumeric), computer algebra (maxima), and DAW/drum machine (lmms, hydrogen). + +--- + +## Summary + +Wave 24 totals 4,951 HIGH+ findings across 10 projects. **Ten new clean-scan honor roll entries** (fifth full-clean wave).

Used pervasively in graph isomorphism (vertex sets), sheaf cohomology (open sets), gentran (Maxima-to-Fortran/C translator). These ARE the algorithms — graph isomorphism by definition needs membership tests in vertex/edge sets. Bounded by mathematical input size; the user controls input scale. Replacing `member` with a hash-based membership test would change the algorithm's behavior (Lisp `member` returns the tail of the list starting at the match, callers may rely on this). + +## Other investigations + +### arangodb vendored UI dominance + +2,298 of 2,298 M1 findings (100%) are in vendored frontend bundles: boost.org's plotly.js + d3.js documentation graphs, swagger-ui-bundle, jquery-ui custom build, ace editor minified. None of these are arangodb source. The arangodb C++ database core is clean. + +### vault Ember.js codemods + +`ui/scripts/codemods/dropdown-transform.js`, `ui/scripts/codemods/hds/button.js` are jscodeshift transforms that run at build/migration time to rewrite Ember.js component class names. Per-AST-node lookups are bounded by template size. Path-filter lists (`ui/lib/replication/`) are per-tenant config size, typically <100 paths. + +### abiword RDF triple containment + +`PD_DocumentRDF::contains(s, p, o)` is the RDF subject-predicate-object triple membership query — an intentional graph-database operation. The header comment (line 268) explicitly notes "performance which might be possible for contains(s,p,o) if the [implementation used indexed lookup]". Already an architecture decision documented in the codebase. + +### hydrogen note-rect containment + +`row.contains(ppNote)` is `QRect::contains(QPoint)` — geometric containment of a point in a rectangle (O(1) coordinate comparison). Scanner FP on the `.contains()` call shape; the Qt QRect/QSet/QString family of `.contains()` methods all have O(1) or substring semantics, not list-membership. + +## Triage backlog + +1. **Scanner enhancement: Qt `QRect::contains`/`QSet::contains`/`QString::contains` awareness** — Qt's `.contains()` family is uniformly O(1) (QRect/QPoint), O(log N) (QSet/QMap), or substring search (QString). Suppressing on Qt-typed receivers would clear hundreds of FPs across LMMS, Hydrogen, Krita, KDE-derived apps wave-wide. +2. **Scanner enhancement: Lisp `(member ...)` algorithm awareness** — Lisp graph/algebra packages use `member` as the canonical containment primitive; Lisp ecosystems differ from imperative languages. +3. **Scanner enhancement: vendored UI tree suppression** — `3rdParty/`, `vendor/`, `node_modules/`, `*.min.js`, `swagger-ui-bundle.js` clusters across multiple projects. + +## Method + +Same as Waves 3-23: shallow clone, `unmoad -s high -f json`, filter test/vendor/codegen noise, manual triage of strongest source-only candidates per project. **Ten projects added to clean-scan honor roll** (fifth full-clean wave).
