名称: Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Debugging Code

The product inserts sensitive information into debugging code.

基本信息

引入方式

Array : When debugging, it may be necessary to report detailed information to the programmer. However, if the debugging code is not disabled when the product is operating in a production environment, then this sensitive information may be exposed to attackers.

适用平台

编程语言

类： Not Language-Specific (Undetermined)

常见后果

影响范围	影响	可能性
Confidentiality	Read Application Data 注意： Sensitive information could be exposed if the debugging code is not disabled in production.

观察示例

参考资料	描述
CVE-2004-2268	Password exposed in debug information.
CVE-2002-0918	CGI script includes sensitive information in debug messages when an error is triggered.
CVE-2003-1078	FTP client with debug option enabled shows password to the screen.

潜在缓解措施

Phases : Implementation
Do not leave debug statements that could be executed in the source code. Ensure that all debug information is eradicated before releasing the software.
Phases : Architecture and Design

检测方法

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.)
有效性 : High

漏洞映射说明

依据 : 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.
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 overlaps other categories.
