觀察到的案例

參考資料 描述

CVE-2024-52316

Web-based product can throw an exception during authentication but does not report the failure in the HTTP status code, allowing authentication bypass.

[REF-1374]

Chain: JavaScript-based cryptocurrency library can fall back to the insecure Math.random() function instead of reporting a failure (CWE-392), thus reducing the entropy (CWE-332) and leading to generation of non-unique cryptographic keys for Bitcoin wallets (CWE-1391)

CVE-2004-0063

Function returns "OK" even if another function returns a different status code than expected, leading to accepting an invalid PIN number.

CVE-2002-1446

Error checking routine in PKCS#11 library returns "OK" status even when invalid signature is detected, allowing spoofed messages.

CVE-2002-0499

Kernel function truncates long pathnames without generating an error, leading to operation on wrong directory.

CVE-2005-2459

Function returns non-error value when a particular erroneous condition is encountered, leading to resultant NULL dereference.

偵測方法

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

漏洞對應備注

理由說明 : 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.
備註 : 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.
