CVE-2021-44228

Security testing and evaluation at multiple SDLC stages directly detects missing or flawed input validation, with the required remediation process ensuring fixes are applied.

Directly implements checks on information inputs to reject invalid data before processing.

Spam protection mechanisms perform filtering and detection on inbound/outbound messages, directly compensating for missing or weak input validation of unsolicited content.

Limiting concurrent sessions directly prevents uncontrolled resource consumption by capping the number of active sessions per user or account.

Analysis identifies uncontrolled resource consumption indicative of denial-of-service or abuse attempts.

Penetration testing supplies malicious serialized objects, detecting unsafe deserialization and supporting corrective actions.

Contingency plan testing includes resource exhaustion scenarios to verify recovery, making it harder for attackers to sustain exploits that cause uncontrolled consumption.

Updated contingency plans include current procedures to detect, contain, and recover from resource exhaustion, limiting an attacker's ability to sustain impact from uncontrolled consumption.

Continuous monitoring of computing resources can detect resource exhaustion but does not itself enforce allocation limits.

Resilience mechanisms such as avoiding single points of failure indirectly reduce impact of resource exhaustion.

Hardened configuration baselines can include resource quotas and limits that constrain consumption.

Pre-agreed severity-based prioritization and resource allocation during incident triage reduce the likelihood that an attacker-induced resource exhaustion will overwhelm the organization before corrective action is taken.

Business-continuity plans that include resource-management controls reduce the likelihood that an attacker can trigger uncontrolled resource consumption by forcing the system into a degraded or fallback state.

Defining RTOs and capacity requirements for ICT services during business-impact analysis forces organizations to provision sufficient resources and throttling mechanisms, reducing the likelihood that an attacker can induce denial-of-service through uncontrolled resource consumption.
