Supported

Astrée reports all potential overflows resulting from floating-point conversions.

Can detect some violations of this rule. However, it does not flag implicit casts, only explicit ones

Coverity

MISRA_CAST (needs verification)

Can detect instances where implicit float conversion is involved: implicitly converting a complex expression with integer type to floating type, implicitly converting a double expression to narrower float type (may lose precision), implicitly converting a complex expression from float to double, implicitly converting from float to double in a function argument, and so on
