Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-294•Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay

    A capture-replay flaw exists when the design of the product makes it possible for a malicious user to sniff network traffic and bypass authentication by replaying it to the server in question to the same effect as the original message (or with minor changes).
