CWE-374: Passing Mutable Objects to an Untrusted Method

Base Draft Simple

CWE版本: 4.18

更新日期: 2025-09-09

弱点描述

The product sends non-cloned mutable data as an argument to a method or function.

扩展描述

The function or method that has been called can alter or delete the mutable data. This could violate assumptions that the calling function has made about its state. In situations where unknown code is called with references to mutable data, this external code could make changes to the data sent. If this data was not previously cloned, the modified data might not be valid in the context of execution.

常见后果

影响范围: Integrity

技术影响: Modify Memory

说明: Potentially data could be tampered with by another function which should not have been tampered with.

潜在缓解措施

阶段: Implementation

描述: Pass in data which should not be altered as constant or immutable.

阶段: Implementation

描述: Clone all mutable data before passing it into an external function . This is the preferred mitigation. This way, regardless of what changes are made to the data, a valid copy is retained for use by the class.
