blocks

Secure development lifecycle requires usable security prompts and warnings to be designed into the UI.

blocks

A.8.26 only requires that security requirements (including UI-related ones) be identified and specified during development; it does not itself enforce, implement, or make any UI warning noticeable enough to stop exploitation of CWE-357

blocks

A.8.27 mandates establishing and applying security engineering principles (e.g. least privilege, security by design, fail securely) and design reviews during the SDLC; this does not stop a UI from presenting an insufficiently noticeable warning for dangerous operations, which can still be exploited.

prevents

Secure coding practices include implementing noticeable, effective UI warnings for risky actions.
