Reports calls to <code>java.lang.Runtime.exec()</code> which take a dynamically-constructed string as the command to execute.
<p>
Constructed execution strings are a common source of security breaches.
By default, this inspection ignores compile-time constants.
</p>
<p><b>Example:</b></p>
<pre><code>
String i = getUserInput();
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
runtime.exec("foo" + i); // reports warning
</code></pre>
<!-- tooltip end -->
<p>
Use the inspection settings to consider any <code>static</code> <code>final</code> fields as constant.
Be careful, because strings like the following will be ignored when the option is enabled:
<pre><code>
static final String COMMAND = "ping " + getDomainFromUserInput() + "'";
</code></pre>
