To fix the problem, we need to remove the unnecessary assignment to the syntax variable. This can be done by simply deleting the line where the assignment occurs. This change will not affect the existing functionality of the code.

To fix the problem, we need to remove the redundant cast from the expression attributeData.ApplicationSyntaxReference?.GetSyntax() as SyntaxNode. This can be done by simply using the expression attributeData.ApplicationSyntaxReference?.GetSyntax() directly, as it already returns a SyntaxNode.
- Locate the line with the redundant cast in the file
csharp/extractor/Semmle.Extraction.CSharp/Populators/TypeContainerVisitor.cs. - Remove the
as SyntaxNodecast from the expression. - Ensure that the functionality remains unchanged.

Potential fix for https://github.com/krishnprakash/codeql/security/code-scanning/4
To fix the problem, we need to replace the
foreachloop that implicitly filters its target sequence with aforeachloop that explicitly filters the sequence using theWheremethod. This change will make the code more readable and maintainable.foreachloop on line 28 with aforeachloop that uses theWheremethod to filter the sequence.attributeData.ApplicationSyntaxReference?.GetSyntax() is SyntaxNode syntaxis moved to theWheremethod.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix.
