名称: Cloneable Class Containing Sensitive Information

The code contains a class with sensitive data, but the class is cloneable. The data can then be accessed by cloning the class.

常见后果

影响范围	影响	可能性
Access Control Confidentiality	Bypass Protection Mechanism, Read Application Data 注意： A class that does not explicitly deny cloning can be cloned by any other class without running the constructor. Cloneable classes are effectively open classes, since data cannot be hidden in the. This is also dangerous since the constructor may perform security-related checks. By allowing the object to be cloned, those checks may be bypassed.

潜在缓解措施

Phases : Implementation
If you do make your classes clonable, ensure that your clone method is final and throw super.clone().

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.)

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.
