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.
Secure SDLC practices directly require parameterized queries and input neutralization to prevent query-logic injection.

Security testing in development catches injection vulnerabilities before release but does not itself implement the fix.
Secure development life cycle mandates input validation and query parameterization that directly prevent injection flaws.
Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection and improper query construction.
Secure architecture principles reduce the likelihood of query-logic flaws but do not prescribe the specific coding practice.
Secure coding standards require proper neutralization of special elements in all data queries.
Outsourced development agreements can require secure coding practices, indirectly mitigating the weakness.
