Overview

Checks for the use of Kernel#open and URI.open with dynamic data.

Kernel#open and URI.open enable not only file access but also process invocation by prefixing a pipe symbol (e.g., open("| ls")). So, it may lead to a serious security risk by using variable input to the argument of Kernel#open and URI.open. It would be better to use File.open, IO.popen or URI.parse#open explicitly.

Note
 open and URI.open with literal strings are not flagged by this cop.

Examples:

# bad
open(something)
open("| #{something}")
open("| foo")
URI.open(something)

# good
File.open(something)
IO.popen(something)
URI.parse(something).open

# good (literal strings)
open("foo.text")
URI.open("http://example.com")

Cop Safety Information:

  • This cop could register false positives if open is redefined in a class and then used without a receiver in that class.

Class Attribute Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::Base - Inherited

.gem_requirements, .lint?,
.support_autocorrect?

Returns if class supports autocorrect.
.support_multiple_source?

Override if your cop should be called repeatedly for multiple investigations Between calls to on_new_investigation and on_investigation_end, the result of processed_source will remain constant.
.builtin?

Class Method Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::Base - Inherited

.autocorrect_incompatible_with

List of cops that should not try to autocorrect at the same time as this cop.
.badge

Naming.
.callbacks_needed, .cop_name, .department,
.documentation_url

Cops (other than builtin) are encouraged to implement this.
.exclude_from_registry

Call for abstract Cop classes.
.inherited,
.joining_forces

Override and return the Force class(es) you need to join.
.match?

Returns true if the cop name or the cop namespace matches any of the given names.
.new,
.requires_gem

Register a version requirement for the given gem name.
.restrict_on_send

::RuboCop::ExcludeLimit - Extended

exclude_limit

Sets up a configuration option to have an exclude limit tracked.

Instance Method Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::Base - Inherited

#add_global_offense

Adds an offense that has no particular location.
#add_offense

Adds an offense on the specified range (or node with an expression) Unless that offense is disabled for this range, a corrector will be yielded to provide the cop the opportunity to autocorrect the offense.
#begin_investigation

Called before any investigation.
#callbacks_needed,
#cop_config

Configuration Helpers.
#cop_name, #excluded_file?,
#external_dependency_checksum

This method should be overridden when a cop’s behavior depends on state that lives outside of these locations:
#inspect,
#message

Gets called if no message is specified when calling add_offense or add_global_offense Cops are discouraged to override this; instead pass your message directly.
#name

Alias for Base#cop_name.
#offenses,
#on_investigation_end

Called after all on_…​
#on_new_investigation

Called before all on_…​
#on_other_file

Called instead of all on_…​
#parse

There should be very limited reasons for a Cop to do it’s own parsing.
#parser_engine,
#ready

Called between investigations.
#relevant_file?, #target_rails_version, #target_ruby_version, #annotate, #apply_correction, #attempt_correction,
#callback_argument

Reserved for Cop::Cop.
