Informaciones CAPEC

Prerrequisitos

The target must have a resource leak that the adversary can repeatedly trigger.

Recursos requeridos

None: No specialized resources are required to execute this type of attack.

Mitigaciones

If possible, leverage coding language(s) that do not allow this weakness to occur (e.g., Java, Ruby, and Python all perform automatic garbage collection that releases memory for objects that have been deallocated).
Memory should always be allocated/freed using matching functions (e.g., malloc/free, new/delete, etc.)
Implement best practices with respect to memory management, including the freeing of all allocated resources at all exit points and ensuring consistency with how and where memory is freed in a function.
