Tên: Improper Control of Dynamically-Identified Variables

The product does not properly restrict reading from or writing to dynamically-identified variables.

Thông tin chung

Chi tiết nền tảng

Các cách xuất hiện

Implementation : The dynamic identification of variables can be a powerful, time-saving technique for developers. This practice can reduce maintenance costs because new code would not need to be written for each variable that is managed.

Các biện pháp giảm thiểu tiềm năng

Phases : Implementation
For any externally-influenced input, check the input against an allowlist of internal program variables that are allowed to be modified.
Phases : Implementation // Architecture and Design
Refactor the code so that internal program variables do not need to be dynamically identified.

Ghi chú ánh xạ lỗ hổng

Lý do : 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.
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.
