Database-backed applications form the backbone of modern software, yet their complexity poses significant challenges for static analysis. These applications involve intricate interactions among application code, diverse database frameworks such as JDBC, Hibernate, and Spring Data JPA, and languages like Java and SQL. In this paper, we introduce DBridge, the first pointer analysis specifically designed for Java database-backed applications, capable of statically constructing comprehensive Java-to-database value flows. DBridge unifies application code analysis, database access specification modeling, SQL analysis, and database abstraction within a single pointer analysis framework, capturing interactions across a wide range of database access APIs and frameworks. Additionally, we present DB-Micro, a new micro-benchmark suite with 824 test cases crafted to systematically evaluate static analysis for database-backed applications. Experiments on DB-Micro and large, complex, real-world applications demonstrate DBridge’s effectiveness, achieving high recall and precision in building Java-to-database value flows efficiently and outperforming state-of-the-art tools in SQL statement identification. To further validate DBridge’s utility, we develop three client analyses for security and program understanding. Evaluation on these real-world applications reveals 30 Stored XSS attack vulnerabilities and 3 horizontal broken access control vulnerabilities, all previously undiscovered and real, as well as a high detection rate in impact analysis for schema changes. By open-sourcing DBridge (14K LoC) and DB-Micro (22K LoC), we seek to help advance static analysis for modern database-backed applications in the future.
