CWE-1329 Detail

The product contains a component that cannot be updated or patched in order to remove vulnerabilities or significant bugs.

Introductiemodi

Requirements : Requirements development might not consider the importance of updates over the lifetime of the product or might intentionally exclude this capability due to concerns such as expense or speed to market.
Architecture and Design : Lack of planning during architecture development and design, or external pressures such as speed to market, could ignore the capability to update.
Architecture and Design : Designers might omit capabilities for updating a component due to time pressures to release the product or assumptions about the stability of the component.
Implementation : The weakness can appear through oversight during implementation.

Mogelijke risicobeperkingen

Phases : Requirements
Specify requirements that each component should be updateable, including ROM, firmware, etc.
Phases : Architecture and Design
Design the product to allow for updating of its components. Include the external infrastructure that might be necessary to support updates, such as distribution servers.
Phases : Architecture and Design // Implementation
With hardware, support patches that can be programmed in-field or during manufacturing through hardware fuses. This feature can be used for limited patching of devices after shipping, or for the next batch of silicon devices manufactured, without changing the full device ROM.
Phases : Implementation
Implement the necessary functionality to allow each component to be updated.

Detectiemethoden

Architecture or Design Review

Check the consumer or maintainer documentation, the architecture/design documentation, or the original requirements to ensure that the documentation includes details for how to update the firmware.
Effectiviteit : Moderate

Notities kwetsbaarheidsmapping

Rechtvaardiging : 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.
Opmerking : 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.
