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.
Access control policy can specify and enforce secure default permissions for resources.
Guides setting of default permissions to the minimum required level.
Policy and procedures require sanitization and neutralization when generating audit logs to avoid injection issues.
Establishes requirements for appropriate default permissions on system resources as part of configuration management.
Baseline establishment and updates on install/upgrade ensure correct default permissions rather than insecure ones.
Requiring the most restrictive settings instead of defaults prevents incorrect default permissions on resources.
Requires documented processes that include setting and maintaining correct default permissions for configuration items.
Requires addressing secure default permissions in physical and environmental protection controls.
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.
Lifecycle management can encompass permission settings, yet the control is too broad to specifically mitigate incorrect defaults.
Defining and enforcing least-privilege access permissions directly prevents overly permissive defaults at install time.
Hardened baselines and configuration management explicitly require correct default file permissions.
Secure SDLC practices and coding standards directly require output sanitization for logs.
