引入方式
Architecture and Design : COMMISSION: This weakness refers to an incorrect design related to an architectural security tactic.
Implementation : Developers may assume that inputs such as cookies,
environment variables, and hidden form fields cannot be
modified.

Confidentiality Access Control Availability | Bypass Protection Mechanism, Gain Privileges or Assume Identity, Varies by Context
注意: When security decisions such as authentication
and authorization are made based on the values of these
inputs, attackers can bypass the security of the
product to access whatever is being protected. An
attacker could change these inputs using customized
clients or other attacks. This change might not be
detected. The consequences will depend on the
associated functionality, but they can range from
granting additional privileges to untrusted users to
bypassing important security checks. Ultimately, this
weakness may lead to exposure or modification of
sensitive data, system crash, or execution of arbitrary
code. | |

描述 |
| Attacker can bypass authentication by setting a cookie to a specific value. |
| Attacker can bypass authentication and gain admin privileges by setting an "admin" cookie to 1. |
| Content management system allows admin privileges by setting a "login" cookie to "OK." |
| e-dating application allows admin privileges by setting the admin cookie to 1. |
| Web-based email list manager allows attackers to gain admin privileges by setting a login cookie to "admin." |

Phases : Architecture and Design
Phases : Architecture and Design
Phases : Architecture and Design
For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks entirely. Then, these modified values would be submitted to the server.
Phases : Operation // Implementation
When using PHP, configure the application so that it does not use register_globals. During implementation, develop the application so that it does not rely on this feature, but be wary of implementing a register_globals emulation that is subject to weaknesses such as CWE-95, CWE-621, and similar issues.

检测方法
Manual Static Analysis
Since this weakness does not typically appear frequently within a single software package, manual white box techniques may be able to provide sufficient code coverage and reduction of false positives if all potentially-vulnerable operations can be assessed within limited time constraints.

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.
