Risk

Başarılı sömürü neye yol açar?

Read Application Data

Etkilenen güvenlik alanları: Confidentiality

Logging sensitive user data, full path names, or system information often provides attackers with an additional, less-protected path to acquiring the information.

Savunma

Nasıl önlenir ve çözülür?

Architecture and Design · Implementation

Birden fazla yaşam döngüsü evresinde uygulanacak savunma

Detay
Consider seriously the sensitivity of the information written into log files. Do not write secrets into the log files.

Distribution

Distribution aşaması savunması

Detay
Remove debug log files before deploying the application into production.

Operation

Operasyonel savunma

Detay
Protect log files against unauthorized read/write.

Implementation

Uygulama aşaması savunması

Detay
Adjust configurations appropriately when software is transitioned from a debug state to production.

Doğrulama

Nasıl tespit edilir?

Automated Static Analysis

High
Automated static analysis, commonly referred to as Static Application Security Testing (SAST), can find some instances of this weakness by analyzing source code (or binary/compiled code) without having to execute it. Typically, this is done by building a model of data flow and control flow, then searching for potentially-vulnerable patterns that connect "sources" (origins of input) with "sinks" (destinations where the data interacts with external components, a lower layer such as the OS, etc.)
