Weakness (CWE)

CWE-1384: Improper Handling of Physical or Environmental Conditions

Class Incomplete

The product does not properly handle unexpected physical or environmental conditions that occur naturally or are artificially induced.

How to prevent it (3 mitigations)
  1. Requirements

    In requirements, be specific about expectations for how the product will perform when it exceeds physical and environmental boundary conditions, e.g., by shutting down.

  2. Architecture and Design, Implementation

    Where possible, include independent components that can detect excess environmental conditions and have the capability to shut down the product.

  3. Architecture and Design, Implementation

    Where possible, use shielding or other materials that can increase the adversary's workload and reduce the likelihood of being able to successfully trigger a security-related failure.
