名称: Permissive Regular Expression
The product uses a regular expression that does not sufficiently restrict the set of allowed values.
基本信息
引入方式
Implementation : This problem is frequently found when the regular expression is used in input validation or security features such as authentication.适用平台
编程语言
名称： Perl (Undetermined)名称： PHP (Undetermined)
名称： Python (Undetermined)
常见后果
| 影响范围 | 影响 | 可能性 |
|---|---|---|
| Access Control | Bypass Protection Mechanism 注意： The regexp could accept substrings that match the pattern, which produces a partial comparison to the target. In some cases, this can allow dangerous substrings to bypass the intended protection. |
观察示例
| 参考资料 | 描述 |
|---|---|
CVE-2021-22204 | Chain: regex in EXIF processor code does not correctly determine where a string ends (CWE-625), enabling eval injection (CWE-95), as exploited in the wild per CISA KEV. |
CVE-2006-1895 | ".*" regexp leads to static code injection |
CVE-2002-2175 | insertion of username into regexp results in partial comparison, causing wrong database entry to be updated when one username is a substring of another. |
CVE-2006-4527 | regexp intended to verify that all characters are legal, only checks that at least one is legal, enabling file inclusion. |
CVE-2005-1949 | Regexp for IP address isn't anchored at the end, allowing appending of shell metacharacters. |
CVE-2002-2109 | Regexp isn't "anchored" to the beginning or end, which allows spoofed values that have trusted values as substrings. |
CVE-2006-6511 | regexp in .htaccess file allows access of files whose names contain certain substrings |
CVE-2006-6629 | allow load of macro files whose names contain certain substrings. |
潜在缓解措施
Phases : ImplementationWhen applicable, ensure that the regular expression marks beginning and ending string patterns, such as "/^string$/" for Perl.
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.
