Likely Mitigating Controls AI

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

addresses: CWE-353

Irrefutable evidence of actions requires integrity protection to prevent tampering or alteration of records.

addresses: CWE-353

Implements required signature-based integrity verification, addressing missing support for integrity checks on components.

addresses: CWE-353

Requiring control over the integrity of all changes directly compels developers to implement integrity verification mechanisms rather than omitting them.

addresses: CWE-353

Tamper detection fundamentally depends on integrity-checking capabilities that this control mandates or strengthens.

addresses: CWE-353

Explicitly requires support for integrity and authenticity checks on components before acceptance into the system.

addresses: CWE-353

Supplies the integrity-check artifacts (e.g., RRSIG, DNSKEY) that were previously missing for DNS responses.

addresses: CWE-353

Control explicitly adds support for integrity mechanisms such as checksums during preparation, preventing attacks that rely on missing integrity checks.

addresses: CWE-353

Directly supplies the missing integrity verification mechanism the weakness describes.
