CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

Class Draft Mapping discouraged

The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

How to prevent it (1 mitigation)
  1. Architecture and Design

    Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.

    Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
