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.
Controls whether organization resources are exposed to external system spheres by permitting or prohibiting their use.
The control ensures information is not released into a security sphere where the recipient lacks matching access authorizations.
The control ensures information resources are not exposed to the incorrect (public) sphere through review and authorization.
Protects against data mining that would expose resources to unauthorized spheres by enforcing detection and controls.
Restricts information flows to ensure resources are not exposed to incorrect or unauthorized spheres.
Controlling internal connections prevents exposure of resources to unintended internal spheres.
Knowing exact processing and storage locations helps avoid exposure of resources to incorrect spheres.
The control prevents exposure of the media resource to the wrong security sphere.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Enforcing least-privilege authorizations directly prevents resources from being exposed outside their intended control sphere.
Secure SDLC practices directly prohibit implicit intents for sensitive data while this single CWE addresses only one narrow coding rule.
Network segmentation and unauthorized-access protections reduce the chance of resources being reachable by the wrong sphere.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing can detect the weakness but does not itself prevent it at runtime.
DLP policies and technical controls directly prevent sensitive data from leaving via insecure implicit intents.
Network security rules can restrict inter-app communication channels that implicit intents rely on.
Placing systems of differing trust levels into separate domains prevents resources from being placed in a sphere where they are reachable by unintended actors.
Application security requirements can mandate explicit intents or secure IPC for sensitive data.
Secure architecture principles discourage implicit intents for sensitive payloads.
