- CWE:
- CWE-190
- Summary
An integer overflow condition exists when an integer used in a compiled program extends beyond the range limits and has not been properly checked from the input stream.
- Solution
In order to prevent overflows and divide by 0 (zero) errors in the application, please rewrite the backend program, checking if the values of integers being processed are within the application's allowed range. This will require a recompilation of the backend executable.
