About:
Joern is a platform for analyzing source code, bytecode, and binaries by building a code property graph. It provides a query language to find vulnerabilities and analyze code at scale. Its main value is enabling deep, semantic code analysis for security and research.
Key Features:
  • Unified code property graph for multiple languages
  • Scala-based query language (CPGQL) for analysis
  • Extensible via an OpenAPI-compatible server
  • Integrates with Code Property Graph (CPG) standard
Use Cases:
  • Vulnerability research and discovery
  • Static application security testing (SAST)
  • Automated code auditing and refactoring
  • Academic research on code analysis
Alternatives:
  • Semgrep – Semgrep uses pattern-based rules, while Joern builds a graph for deeper semantic queries.
  • CodeQL – CodeQL is a proprietary, mature platform; Joern is an open-source alternative with a graph-based approach.
