常見後果
| 範圍 | 影響 | 可能性 |
|---|---|---|
| Confidentiality Integrity Availability | Varies by Context 注意：Widely varied consequences are possible if an attacker is aware of an unexpected state in the product after a conditional. Usage of short circuit evaluation, though well-defined in the C standard, may alter control flow in a way that introduces logic errors that are difficult to detect, possibly causing errors later during the product's execution. It may lead to information exposure, a system crash, or even complete attacker control of the system. | |
| Other | Unexpected State 注意：This may lead to an unexpected state in the program after the execution of the conditional, because short-circuiting logic may prevent the side effects from occurring. | |
| Other | Reduce Maintainability 注意：The usage of short circuit evaluation may decrease the maintainability of the code. |
潛在緩解措施
Phases : ImplementationMinimizing the number of statements in a conditional that produce side effects will help to prevent the likelihood of short circuit evaluation to alter control flow in an unexpected way.
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 Variant 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.
