One of the security patches released 2026-03-09 [fixed a vulnerability](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/pulls/11513/commits/d1c7b04d09f6a13896eaa1322ac690b2021539da) caused by a misapplication of Go `case` statements, where the implementation would have been correct if Go `case` statements automatically fall through to the next case block, but they do not. This PR adds a semgrep rule which detects any empty `case` statement and raises an error, in order to prevent this coding mistake in the future. For example, code like this will now trigger a build error: ```go switch setting.Protocol { case setting.HTTPUnix: case setting.FCGI: case setting.FCGIUnix: default: defaultLocalURL := string(setting.Protocol) + "://" } ``` Example error: ``` cmd/web.go ❯❯❱ semgrep.config.forgejo-switch-empty-case switch has a case block with no content. This is treated as "break" by Go, but developers may confuse it for "fallthrough". To fix this error, disambiguate by using "break" or "fallthrough". 279┆ switch setting.Protocol { 280┆ case setting.HTTPUnix: 281┆ case setting.FCGI: 282┆ case setting.FCGIUnix: 283┆ default: 284┆ defaultLocalURL := string(setting.Protocol) + "://" 285┆ if setting.HTTPAddr == "0.0.0.0" { 286┆ defaultLocalURL += "localhost" 287┆ } else { 288┆ defaultLocalURL += setting.HTTPAddr ``` As described in the error output, this error can be fixed by explicitly listing `break` (the real Go behaviour, to do nothing in the block), or by listing `fallthrough` (if the intent was to fall through). All existing code triggering this detection has been changed to `break` (or, rarely, irrelevant cases have been removed), which should maintain the same code functionality. While performing this fixup, a light analysis was performed on each case and they *appeared* correct, but with ~65 cases I haven't gone into extreme depth. Tests are present for the semgrep rule in `.semgrep/tests/go.go`. ## Checklist The [contributor guide](https://forgejo.org/docs/next/contributor/) contains information that will be helpful to first time contributors. There also are a few [conditions for merging Pull Requests in Forgejo repositories](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/governance/src/branch/main/PullRequestsAgreement.md).
