CWE-471—Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID)

名称

Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID)

描述

The product does not properly protect an assumed-immutable element from being modified by an attacker.

This occurs when a particular input is critical enough to the functioning of the application that it should not be modifiable at all, but it is. Certain resources are often assumed to be immutable when they are not, such as hidden form fields in web applications, cookies, and reverse DNS lookups.
