Yes, many hundreds of issues have been fixed since 1.4 (1.4 is now eol) and we make use of static analysis tools.  Static analysis tools in general have very high false positive rate, we do our best to address issues found with them, but they require much more than running a tool and getting a report.  Every single one of those reports needs to be investigated, confirmed if its actually valid (typically 80%+ are not), reported.
