Weaknesses this control addresses (3)AI-assisted
CWEs ranked by how often they appear in real CVEs. The rationale describes how this control reduces exploitability of each weakness class.
| CWE | Name | CVEs | Why this control addresses it |
|---|---|---|---|
CWE-200 | Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor | 11,000+ | Automated marking applies security attributes to system outputs, making it harder for attackers to exploit unmarked sensitive information leading to unauthorized exposure. |
CWE-284 | Improper Access Control | 6,900+ | By automatically labeling outputs with security attributes, the control supports attribute-based enforcement and reduces exploitability of improper access control weaknesses. |
CWE-359 | Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor | 200+ | Automated marking identifies private personal information in outputs, tangibly reducing the ability to exploit weaknesses that result in its unauthorized exposure. |
