execinquery panics in the presence of url.URL.Query

[favonia]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using a binary release within 2 latest major releases. Only such installations are supported.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've included all information below (version, config, etc).
• Yes, I've tried with the standalone linter if available. (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/linters/)

Description of the problem

The linter execinquery panics when url.URL.Query is used. The core issue is that execinquery assumes any method with a name containing Query is a method call to DB.Query (or its friends), and then it further assumes the number of arguments in those method calls must be at least one. If the assumption is false, it panics. URL.Query in net/url is one such example from the standard library. I think the current approach of execinquery could potentially generate too many false positives, and more importantly, it should have avoided panicking in all cases. I thus suggest disabling this linter until it is further improved.

Hello,

It's an issue with execinquery

When a fix will be created, our bot will update the linter.

[ldez]

@lufeee can you take a look at this issue? thank you.

1uf3/execinquery#3

[ldez]

I created a fix 1uf3/execinquery#7

[1uf3]

Thanks for reporting.
I will see that issue and pull request.
wait a moment about fixing this bug

[ninadingole]

I see the source repository execinquery released a new version with the fix, can we release golangci-lint version please? or what will be a quick solution with v1.46.0 to ignore this?

@ninadingole In case it helps, I immediately disabled execinquery when 1.46.0 was out:

linters:
  disable:
    - execinquery

See configuration for more information.
