Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-119•Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer

    The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.

  • CWE-835•Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

    The product contains an iteration or loop with an exit condition that cannot be reached, i.e., an infinite loop.

  • CWE-122•Heap-based Buffer Overflow

    A heap overflow condition is a buffer overflow, where the buffer that can be overwritten is allocated in the heap portion of memory, generally meaning that the buffer was allocated using a routine such as malloc().
