注意:If an attacker can initialize the variable incorrectly, this can influence what the product will do. The attacker could gain access to and modify sensitive data or system information. | |

描述 |
| WordPress module sets internal variables based on external inputs, allowing false reporting of the number of views |
| Does not clear dangerous environment variables, enabling symlink attack. |
| Specify alternate configuration directory in environment variable, enabling untrusted path. |
| Dangerous environment variable not cleansed. |
| Specify arbitrary modules using environment variable. |
潛在緩解措施
Phases : Implementation
A product system should be reluctant to trust variables that have been initialized outside of its trust boundary, especially if they are initialized by users. Ensure adequate checking (e.g. input validation) is performed when relying on input from outside a trust boundary.
Phases : Architecture and Design
Avoid any external control of variables. If necessary, restrict the variables that can be modified using an allowlist, and use a different namespace or naming convention if possible.
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.)
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.
備注
Overlaps Missing variable initialization, especially in PHP.
