Change rule G204 to be less restrictive (#339)
Currently, rule G204 warns you about every single use of the functions syscall.Exec, os.exec.CommandContext and os.Exec.Command. This can create false positives and it's not accurate because you can use those functions with perfectly secure arguments like hardcoded strings for example. With this change, G204 will warn you in 3 cases when passing arguments to a function which starts a new process the arguments: 1) are variables initialized by calling another function 2) are functions 3) are command-line arguments or environmental variables Closes: https://github.com/securego/gosec/issues/338 Signed-off-by: Martin Vrachev <mvrachev@vmware.com>
