Static analysis tools are not limited to detecting just syntactical errors, but they are also effective in identifying various security vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows, SQL injection flaws, cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, and other security-related issues in the code before the application is run. By detecting these issues early in the development process, static analysis helps in creating more secure software.
