A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing can discover path-traversal flaws but does not itself prevent them in production code.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements can mandate input validation and path canonicalization to block traversal sequences.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles include directory sandboxing and safe file-access design that mitigate path traversal.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards directly require neutralizing path traversal sequences such as '\..\filename'.
