Tên: Comparing instead of Assigning

The code uses an operator for comparison when the intention was to perform an assignment.

Thông tin chung

Các cách xuất hiện

Implementation : In many languages, the compare statement is very close in appearance to the assignment statement; they are often confused. This bug primarily originates from a typo.

Phạm vi Tác động Khả năng xảy ra
Availability
Integrity
Unexpected State

Ghi chú: The assignment will not take place, which should cause obvious program execution problems.

Các biện pháp giảm thiểu tiềm năng

Phases : Testing
Many IDEs and static analysis products will detect this problem.

Phương pháp phát hiện

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.)
Hiệu quả : High

Automated Static Analysis - Source Code

An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or linter can report or highlight this weakness.

Ghi chú ánh xạ lỗ hổng

Lý do : This CWE entry is at the Variant level of abstraction, which is a preferred level of abstraction for mapping to the root causes of vulnerabilities.
Bình luận : 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.
