Weakness (CWE)

CWE-1177: Use of Prohibited Code

Class Incomplete

The product uses a function, library, or third party component
that has been explicitly prohibited, whether by the developer or
the customer.

How to prevent it (1 mitigation)

  1. Build and Compilation, Implementation

    Identify a list of prohibited API functions and prohibit developers from using these functions, providing safer alternatives. In some cases, automatic code analysis tools or the compiler can be instructed to spot use of prohibited functions, such as the "banned.h" include file from Microsoft's SDL.
