名稱: Improper Neutralization of Data within XQuery Expressions

The product uses external input to dynamically construct an XQuery expression used to retrieve data from an XML database, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes that input.

一般資訊

引入方式

Implementation : REALIZATION: This weakness is caused during implementation of an architectural security tactic.

適用平台

程式語言

類別： Not Language-Specific (Undetermined)

常見後果

範圍	影響	可能性
Confidentiality	Read Application Data 注意：An attacker could modify the structure of the query to control what information is selected by the XML database, then use that ability to control application flow, modify logic, retrieve unauthorized data, or bypass important checks (e.g. authentication).

潛在緩解措施

Phases : Implementation
Use parameterized queries. This will help ensure separation between data plane and control plane.
Phases : Implementation
Properly validate user input. Reject data where appropriate, filter where appropriate and escape where appropriate. Make sure input that will be used in XQL queries is safe in that context.

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.

備注

This weakness is similar to other weaknesses that enable injection style attacks, such as SQL injection, command injection and LDAP injection. The main difference is that the target of attack here is the XML database.
