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.
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 authorization directly prevents unrestricted dangerous API methods.
Secure SDLC practices stop developers from exposing dangerous functions in the first place.
Vulnerability identification processes will surface exposed dangerous methods during assessment.
Logical access controls at the network/environment layer can limit reachability of exposed functions.
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 exposed dangerous functions, but does not prevent their initial introduction.
Restricting privileged utility programs reduces exposure of dangerous functions, but does not eliminate the underlying weakness.
Privileged access rights limit who can invoke dangerous methods, but do not address whether the method itself should exist.
Secure development life cycle requires removal or protection of dangerous APIs during design and coding.
Application security requirements can mandate that dangerous methods are not exposed in interfaces.
Secure architecture principles discourage exposing dangerous functions, but do not guarantee their absence.
Hardening callouts derived
Configuration rules from DISA STIG baselines that bear on weaknesses of the type cited by this CVE. Each rule is shown with the relationship its mapping actually records, against the CWE it was authored against. Derived via CVE→CWE over `controls_xwalks` (authoritative rows only; rows rated `none` are excluded).
Ubuntu 22.04 (3 rules)
