Any open-source software that is similar to Fortify? [closed]

I have been using PMD and Findbug for my application but fortify managed to detect some of the security vulnerabilities in my application. I am wondering if there is other open-source software that does the similar job as Fortify?

Sonar is pretty similar to Fortify. However, it focuses more on code quality/metrics rather than security. There is some overlap in informational. Additionally, there are plugins for Sonar such as Security Rules that allow you to add more security metrics.
