이름: Use of Prohibited Code

The product uses a function, library, or third party component that has been explicitly prohibited, whether by the developer or the customer.

일반 정보

취약점 도입 방식

Requirements : To reduce risk of vulnerabilities, the developer - or customers - may wish to restrict or eliminate use of a function, library, or third party component for any number of reasons, including real or suspected vulnerabilities; difficulty to use securely; export controls or license requirements; obsolete or poorly-maintained code; internal code being scheduled for deprecation; etc. This might be achieved using a list of "banned" functions that programmers must avoid using, because the functions are difficult or impossible to use securely.

참고 자료 설명

CVE-2007-4004

FTP client uses inherently insecure gets() function and is setuid root on some systems, allowing buffer overflow

잠재적 완화 방법

Phases : Build and Compilation // Implementation
Identify a list of prohibited API functions and prohibit developers from using these functions, providing safer alternatives. In some cases, automatic code analysis tools or the compiler can be instructed to spot use of prohibited functions, such as the "banned.h" include file from Microsoft's SDL. [REF-554] [REF-1009] [REF-7]

탐지 방법

Automated Static Analysis

Automated static analysis, commonly referred to as Static Application Security Testing (SAST), can find some instances of this weakness by analyzing source code (or binary/compiled code) without having to execute it. Typically, this is done by building a model of data flow and control flow, then searching for potentially-vulnerable patterns that connect "sources" (origins of input) with "sinks" (destinations where the data interacts with external components, a lower layer such as the OS, etc.)
