Avoid IP hardcoded in the code

Semgrep Assistant suggests the following fix: Use configuration files or environment variables to store IP addresses instead of hardcoding them in the code.

View step-by-step instructions
  1. Remove the hardcoded IP address from the code by replacing the line public const string MyIPAddress = "123.168.96.58"; with a configuration-based approach.
  2. Use a configuration file or environment variable to store the IP address. For example, you can use an appsettings.json file or environment variables.
  3. If using appsettings.json, add an entry like "MyIPAddress": "123.168.96.58" under a suitable section.
  4. In your code, read the IP address from the configuration source. If using appsettings.json, you can use the ConfigurationManager class to retrieve the value: string myIPAddress = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MyIPAddress"];.
  5. Ensure that your application is configured to load the configuration file or environment variables at runtime.

This code change should be a good starting point:

Suggested change
public const string MyIPAddress = "123.168.96.58";
using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Configuration; // Add this for ConfigurationManager
public class IPAddressExample
{
private IPAddress hardcodedIpAddress;
public string MyIPAddress;
public IPAddressExample()
{
// Retrieve the IP address from configuration
MyIPAddress = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MyIPAddress"];
string myIP = "123.168.96.54";
//ok: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
hardcodedIpAddress = IPAddress.Parse("192.168.0.1");
print("Sebas");
print("---");
//ruleid: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
hardcodedIpAddress = IPAddress.Parse(X, "123.168.96.54");
//ruleid: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
IP_ADDRESS = "123.168.96.54";
//ruleid: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
IP_ADDRESS = MY_IP = "123.168.96.54";
//ok: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
hardcodedIpAddress = IPAddress.Parse("a");
//ok: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
hardcodedIpAddress = IPAddress.Parse("ab");
//ok: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
hardcodedIpAddress = IPAddress.Parse("192");
//ok: avoid_ip_address_in_the_code
}
}
