Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing references to allocated resources through dynamic analysis or fuzzing.

SA-15 Development Process, Standards, and Tools partial match

Requiring a documented development process and standards can mandate use of safe resource-management idioms and tools.

SA-8 Security and Privacy Engineering Principles partial match

Security engineering principles include disciplined resource allocation and deallocation patterns that stop lost references from being introduced.

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.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure development practices directly prevent lost resource references via coding standards, reviews, and tooling.
