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.
Secure SDLC directly requires input neutralization and validation that eliminates XML injection flaws.

Security testing catches XML injection during development but does not itself implement the fix.
Logging can record injection attempts for detection but does not prevent the weakness.
Monitoring can detect exploitation but provides no preventive control over XML handling.
Secure SDLC mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevent XML injection.
Application security requirements explicitly call for defenses against injection flaws including XML.
Secure architecture principles reduce attack surface but do not prescribe XML-specific controls.
