Weakness Name
Excessive Index Range Scan for a Data Resource
Description
The product contains an index range scan for a large data table, but the scan can cover a large number of rows.
This issue can make the product perform more slowly. If the relevant code is reachable by an attacker, then this performance problem might introduce a vulnerability. While the interpretation of "large data table" and "excessive index range" may vary for each product or developer, CISQ recommends a threshold of 1000000 table rows and a threshold of 10 for the index range.
Common Consequences
Scope: Other
Impact: Reduce Performance
