Compare the Top Static Code Analysis Software for Linux as of April 2025

What is Static Code Analysis Software for Linux?

Static code analysis software is software designed to examine source code for potential errors, vulnerabilities, and code quality issues without executing the program. It scans the code to detect syntax problems, security flaws, and non-compliance with coding standards. This type of software helps developers identify bugs early in the development process, improving code reliability and reducing debugging time later. Static code analysis also assists in maintaining code consistency across teams by enforcing best practices and coding guidelines. By automating the review process, the software enhances code quality, reduces technical debt, and contributes to more secure, maintainable software. Compare and read user reviews of the best Static Code Analysis software for Linux currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

    PlatformIO

    PlatformIO

    PlatformIO

    Professional collaborative platform for embedded development. PlatformIO is a next-generation, collaborative platform for embedded development that enables customers to save resources and time by vastly reducing the expenses and labor associated with creating and maintaining product software. We believe the embedded systems industry desperately needs reinvention. Not only are the IDEs and tools built with technology from the 1990s, but they involve many complex requirements and platform-dependent configurations that turn away talented developers from becoming embedded engineers. The most loved IDE solution for Microsoft Visual Studio Code. A user-friendly and extensible integrated development environment with a set of professional development instruments, providing modern and powerful features to speed up yet simplify the creation and delivery of embedded products. PlatformIO is written in pure Python and doesn't depend on any additional libraries/tools from an operation system.

    Softagram

    Softagram

    Softagram

    Software projects tend to be complex and there is the law of entropy making it more complex all the time. The developers easily get lost in the dependency network and tend to create designs that does not stand time well. Softagram provides automatically illustrations on how the dependencies are changing. Automated integration works so that pull requsts (in GitHub, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps), merge requests (in GitLab) and patch sets (in Gerrit) are decorated with a dependency analysis report that pops up as a comment in the tool you already use. The analysis also covers other aspects such as open source licenses and quality. It can be tailored for your needs. Software audits can also be efficiently performed by using Softagram analysis together with Softagram Desktop app designed for advanced software understanding and auditing usage.

    CodeQL

    CodeQL

    GitHub

    Discover vulnerabilities across a codebase with CodeQL, our industry-leading semantic code analysis engine. CodeQL lets you query code as though it were data. Write a query to find all variants of a vulnerability, eradicating it forever. Then share your query to help others do the same. CodeQL is free for research and open source. Run real queries on popular open source codebases using CodeQL for Visual Studio Code. See how powerful it is to discover a bad pattern and then find similar occurrences across the entire codebase. You can create CodeQL databases yourself for any project that's under an OSI-approved open source license. GitHub CodeQL can only be used on codebases that are released under an OSI-approved open source license, to perform academic research, or to generate CodeQL databases for or during automated analysis. Download and add the project’s CodeQL database to VS Code, or create a CodeQL database using the CodeQL CLI.

    Clair

    Clair

    Clair

    Clair is an open-source project for the static analysis of vulnerabilities in application containers (currently including OCI and docker). Clients use the Clair API to index their container images and can then match it against known vulnerabilities. Our goal is to enable a more transparent view of the security of the container-based infrastructure. Thus, the project was named Clair after the French term which translates to clear, bright, and transparent. Manifests are Clair's representation of a container image. Clair leverages the fact that OCI Manifests and Layers are content-addressed to reduce duplicated work.
