Weakness (CWE)

CWE-354: Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value

Base Draft

The product does not validate or incorrectly validates the integrity check values or "checksums" of a message.

How to prevent it (1 mitigation)
  1. Implementation

    The protocol specification describes the algorithm used for calculating the checksum. It is then a matter of implementing the calculation and verifying that the calculated checksum and the received checksum match.
