A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing in development can detect invalid-free defects before release.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates memory-safety practices that reduce use-after-free and invalid-free bugs.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture and engineering principles include disciplined memory management that prevents freeing non-heap memory.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid freeing pointers not obtained from heap allocators, directly mitigating CWE-590.
