| 参考资料 | 描述 |
|---|---|
CVE-2014-6394 | Product does not prevent access to restricted directories due to partial string comparison with a public directory |
CVE-2004-1012 | Argument parser of an IMAP server treats a partial command "body[p" as if it is "body.peek", leading to index error and out-of-bounds corruption. |
CVE-2004-0765 | Web browser only checks the hostname portion of a certificate when the hostname portion of the URI is not a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), which allows remote attackers to spoof trusted certificates. |
CVE-2002-1374 | One-character password by attacker checks only against first character of real password. |
CVE-2000-0979 | The password is not properly checked, which allows remote attackers to bypass access controls by sending a 1-character password that matches the first character of the real password. |
潜在缓解措施
Phases : TestingThoroughly test the comparison scheme before deploying code into production. Perform positive testing as well as negative testing.
漏洞映射说明
依据 : 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.备注 : 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.
备注
This is conceptually similar to other weaknesses, such as insufficient verification and regular expression errors. It is primary to some weaknesses.提交记录
