名称: Using Referer Field for Authentication

The referer field in HTTP requests can be easily modified and, as such, is not a valid means of message integrity checking.

基本信息

背景详情

引入方式

Architecture and Design : COMMISSION: This weakness refers to an incorrect design related to an architectural security tactic.

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
Access ControlGain Privileges or Assume Identity

注意: Actions, which may not be authorized otherwise, can be carried out as if they were validated by the server referred to.

潜在缓解措施

Phases : Architecture and Design
In order to usefully check if a given action is authorized, some means of strong authentication and method protection must be used. Use other means of authorization that cannot be simply spoofed. Possibilities include a username/password or certificate.

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 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.
