Research direction

Start with the linked Code Property Graph paper and the Joern examples mentioned in the issue. No repository files or tests are named; the request would be complete when documented examples cover syntax-only, taint-style, and control-flow vulnerability patterns.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hi, I really admire your works to create this tool and am interested. I would like to use this tool to find some vulnerabilities. I read your paper Modeling and Discovering Vulnerabilities with Code Property Graphs https://www.sec.cs.tu-bs.de/pubs/2014-ieeesp.pdf. And I found that we can traversal a code property graph to find syntax-only, taint-style and control-flow vulnerabilities, like papers' types. But It is difficult for me to write some patterns. Can you provide me some codes of patterns of syntax-only, taint-style and control-flow vulnerabilities? Thank you so much. I have tried to run some examples in joern.
