When I was at PalmSource, I tried to get budget for CoVerity or Fortify (static code analysis tools.). "Too expensive," my management chain said. I spent another year putting together a deal for a lower cost but limited to scanning the network stack. "No, it's based on BSD and BSD is inherently secure," my management chain said (neither is true, btw.) I eventually left and wound up at Mozilla where there were a number of /* flawfinder ignore */ comments scattered throughout the code. My guess is that Mythos just ignored the "flawfinder ignore" directives and reported the known vulnerabilities in the code.
