-RATS - Rough Auditing Tool for Security
-
-RATS is an open source tool developed and maintained by Secure Software 
-security engineers.  Secure Software was acquired by Fortify Software, Inc.
-RATS is a tool for scanning C, C++, Perl, PHP and Python source code and 
-flagging common security related programming errors such as buffer overflows 
-and TOCTOU (Time Of Check, Time Of Use) race conditions.
-
-RATS scanning tool provides a security analyst with a list of potential 
-trouble spots on which to focus, along with describing the problem and 
-potentially suggest remedies.  It also provides a relative assessment of the 
-potential severity of each problem, to better help an auditor prioritize.  
-This tool also performs some basic analysis to try to rule out conditions 
-that are obviously not problems.
-
-As its name implies, the tool performs only a rough analysis of source code. 
-It will not find every error and will also find things that are not errors. 
-Manual inspection of your code is still necessary, but greatly aided with 
-this tool.
-
-Example usage - to analyze "main.c":
-rats --db /usr/share/rats-2.3/rats-c.xml main.c
