Fixed inappropriate logic

[nydelzaf]

Details

While triaging your project, our bug fixing tool generated the following message(s)-

In file: bigip_provision.py, a logical equality check operation was performed. The operands are such that the comparison operation always returns either true or false. Such logical short circuits in code lead to unintended behavior. iCR suggested that the logical operation should be reviewed for correctness.

Changes

• Replaced str casting to int following a similar implementation of file bigip_provision_async.py

Testing

• Running tox on the project gave the following results -

  py: OK (0.04 seconds)
  congratulations :) (0.12 seconds)

Sponsorship and Support

This work is done by the security researchers from OpenRefactory and is supported by the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF): Project Alpha-Omega. Alpha-Omega is a project partnering with open source software project maintainers to systematically find new, as-yet-undiscovered vulnerabilities in open source code - and get them fixed – to improve global software supply chain security.

The bug is found by running the Intelligent Code Repair (iCR) tool by OpenRefactory and then manually triaging the results.
