Note sulla mappatura delle vulnerabilità

Giustificazione : This CWE entry is at the Base level of abstraction, which is a preferred level of abstraction for mapping to the root causes of vulnerabilities.
Commento : Carefully read both the name and description to ensure that this mapping is an appropriate fit. Do not try to 'force' a mapping to a lower-level Base/Variant simply to comply with this preferred level of abstraction.

Pattern di attacco correlati

CAPEC-ID Nome del pattern di attacco
CAPEC-66 SQL Injection
This attack exploits target software that constructs SQL statements based on user input. An attacker crafts input strings so that when the target software constructs SQL statements based on the input, the resulting SQL statement performs actions other than those the application intended. SQL Injection results from failure of the application to appropriately validate input.
CAPEC-676 NoSQL Injection

Note

This entry is still under development and will continue to see updates and content improvements.
