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

Security testing in development can detect out-of-bounds array access but does not prevent the weakness by itself.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and bounds checking that directly prevents improper array indexing.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements include validation of untrusted input used for indexing or addressing memory structures.

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

Secure architecture principles encourage defensive coding patterns that reduce index-related vulnerabilities.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly require bounds checking and validation of array indices derived from untrusted data.
