Description
This option determines whether the compiler performs source code checking
for Unicode vulnerabilities.
Option
Wcheck-unicode-security
enables Unicode checking. The compiler
will detect and warn about Unicode constructs that can be exploited by using
bi-directional formatting codes, zero-width characters in strings, and use of
zero-width characters and homoglyphs in identifiers.
Option
Wno-check-unicode-security
disables Unicode checking.
This option only applies to host compilation. When
offloading is enabled, it does not impact device-specific compilation.
