1. Improve Java parser to support 13 & 14 versions (also review v12)

There have been two updates on Java:

• Java 13 went GA on September 17, 2019
• Java 14 went GA on March 17, 2020

We have made language syntax changes for Java 13 and 14:

• Switch Expressions
• Text Blocks
• Pattern Matching for Instanceof
• Records

2. Improve C/C++ technology support

Our analysis engine now has support for the Tainting Propagation Algorithm and the Local Symbol Table, giving us better support for the detection of vulnerabilities.

 We have also added 23 new rules and improved many of the existing ones for both C and C++:

1. Weak symmetric encryption algorithm (CWE:327, OWASP-M:2014:M4, SANS25:2011:19, OWASP:2017:A3, SANS25:2010:24, PCI-DSS:6.5.3, OWASP:2013:A6, WASC:04)
2. Weak cryptographic hash (CWE:327, OWASP:2017:A3, WASC:50, PCI-DSS:6.5.3)
3. Avoid unintended access to filesystem resources outside the chroot directory (CWE:243)
4. Unsafe chroot call (CWE:243, CERT-D:POS05)
5. Static database connection/session (CWE:567, PCI-DSS:6.5.6)

9. Avoid non-neutralized user-controlled input composed in a pathname to a resource (CWE:22, CWE:73, OWASP:2017:A5, OWASP:2013:A4, CERT-C:FIO01, WASC:33, PCI-DSS:6.5.8, CWETOP25:2019:10)
10. Improper neutralization of special elements in data query logic (NoSQL injection) (CWE:943, OWASP:2017:A1, WASC:19, OWASP-M:2014:M7, SANS25:2011:1, PCI-DSS:6.5.1)
11. Avoid non-neutralized user-controlled input in LDAP search filters (CWE:90, OWASP:2017:A1, WASC:29, PCI-DSS:6.5.1)

14. Standard pseudo-random number generators cannot withstand cryptographic attacks (CWE:330, CWE:338, CERT-C:MSC30, OWASP:2017:A3, OWASP-M:2014:M6, PCI-DSS:6.5.3)
15. Use of Hard-coded Credentials (CWE:798, OWASP:2017:A5, OWASP-M:2014:M2, SANS25:2011:7, WASC:01, PCI-DSS:6.5.3, CWETOP25:2019:19)
16. Use of hardcoded salt (CWE:760, OWASP:2013:A6, PCI-DSS:6.5.3)
17. Hardcoded cryptographic keys (CWE:321, OWASP:2017:A3, OWASP-M:2014:M6, PCI-DSS:6.3.1, WASC:13)

22. Do not hardcode absolute paths (CWE:426,CWETOP25:2019:22)
23. XML entity injection (CWE:611, CWE:776, OWASP:2017:A4, WASC:43, WASC:44, PCI-DSS:6.5.1, CWETOP25:2019:17)

3. New Java/JSP rules

We have added 3 new rules:

1. Spring CSRF unrestricted RequestMapping (CWE:352, WASC:9, SANS25:2010:4, OWASP:2013:A8, SANS25:2011:12, PCI-DSS:6.5.1, CWETOP25:2019:9)
