Mitigating Controls

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.

addresses: CWE-613 CWE-384

Automatically terminating sessions after a defined period directly enforces session expiration, preventing indefinite session lifetimes that attackers can exploit.

addresses: CWE-613 CWE-384

Re-authentication after inactivity or time-based triggers prevents indefinite use of potentially hijacked or stale sessions.

addresses: CWE-613

Locks the device (typically after inactivity) until re-authentication, addressing insufficient session expiration by preventing indefinite access.

addresses: CWE-613

Terminating sessions and network connections upon completion prevents insufficient session expiration.

addresses: CWE-613

Directly enforces termination of network sessions after inactivity or end-of-session, preventing indefinite session lifetime.

addresses: CWE-384

Enforces proper session ID generation and binding, preventing fixation of a known session token.

addresses: CWE-613

Consistent clocks across systems allow session expiration and timeout enforcement to function as intended in distributed environments.

addresses: CWE-613

When the non-persistent artifact is a session or connection, mandatory termination implements the missing expiration that CWE-613 describes.
