Checkmarx scan is reporting Leftover Debug Code for main method in Springboot Application

Question

Checkmarx scan runs as a step in CI/CD on my Springboot Application .

In the scan results, Checkmarx is reporting Leftover Debug Code issue, because I have the main method as the entry point in my Springboot Application .

How can I pass the Checkmarx scan?

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = {JNDIConnectionFactoryAutoConfiguration.class, HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class, JpaRepositoriesAutoConfiguration.class, DataSourceTransactionManagerAutoConfiguration.class, TransactionAutoConfiguration.class})
@ImportResource({"classpath:applicatiomContext.xml"})
public class MyApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {

 public static void main(String args []) {

     SpringApplication springApplication = new SpringApplication(MyApplication.class);
     springApplication.run(args);

    }
}

Answer 1

The Leftover Debug Code Checkmarx query is apparently looking for the "public" and "static" keywords so try to change the modifier into private or protected:

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = {JNDIConnectionFactoryAutoConfiguration.class, HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class, JpaRepositoriesAutoConfiguration.class, DataSourceTransactionManagerAutoConfiguration.class, TransactionAutoConfiguration.class})
@ImportResource({"classpath:applicatiomContext.xml"})
public class MyApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {

 protected static void main(String args []) {

     SpringApplication springApplication = new SpringApplication(MyApplication.class);
     springApplication.run(args);

    }
}
