#### A Python security linter from PyCQA

Bandit is a tool designed to find common security issues in Python
code. To do this Bandit processes each file, builds an AST from it, and
runs appropriate plugins against the AST nodes. Once Bandit has finished
scanning all the files it generates a report.
