CVE-2023-3869

Requiring a decision for every access request prevents missing authorization checks that would otherwise allow unauthorized access.

Requiring enforcement of authorizations ensures checks are performed rather than omitted for resources.

Requiring an access control policy ensures authorization checks are defined and applied for critical functions.

Reviews of access controls detect missing authorization checks on critical functions or resources.

Documenting permitted unauthenticated actions prevents missing authorization by making all exceptions explicit and subject to organizational review.

Requiring attribute association with information prevents authorization from being performed without necessary security or privacy context.

Mandating authorization prior to allowing remote connections addresses missing authorization for remote access.

Mandating authorization before wireless connections are allowed prevents missing authorization for wireless access.

Access control policy directly requires enforcement of authorization rules that prevent unauthorized access via manipulated keys.

Managing access rights includes ensuring users can only access their own records and not bypass authorization by altering identifiers.

Segregating the approval of access rights from their implementation provides an independent check that reduces the impact of missing authorization checks in the resulting system configuration.

By requiring competent outsiders to verify that every function enforces the need-to-know principle, the control lowers the likelihood that missing authorization checks persist undetected.
