CWE-455: Non-exit on Failed Initialization
CWE版本: 4.18
更新日期: 2025-09-09
弱点描述
The product does not exit or otherwise modify its operation when security-relevant errors occur during initialization, such as when a configuration file has a format error or a hardware security module (HSM) cannot be activated, which can cause the product to execute in a less secure fashion than intended by the administrator.
常见后果
影响范围: Integrity Other
技术影响: Modify Application Data Alter Execution Logic
说明: The application could be placed in an insecure state that may allow an attacker to modify sensitive data or allow unintended logic to be executed.
潜在缓解措施
阶段: Implementation
描述: Follow the principle of failing securely when an error occurs. The system should enter a state where it is not vulnerable and will not display sensitive error messages to a potential attacker.
观察示例
参考: CVE-2005-1345
