About Semgrep
Semgrep grinds forward on language coverage and Pro taint-engine performance
Semgrep's recent releases are a steady stream of language-parser improvements (Dart typed metavariables, PHP 8.5, Scala 3.4 traits, Kotlin grammar) paired with sustained performance work on the Pro interfile taint engine and rule parsing, including 5x faster JSON rule loading in 1.162.0. Output and infra controls also got attention, like a configurable match-context cap for minified files.
