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.
Monitoring directly detects unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, enabling response to exposures.
Obscuring authentication feedback prevents exposure of sensitive information such as valid usernames or failure reasons to unauthorized actors.
Concealment techniques directly prevent real sensitive data from being exposed to adversaries.
Restricts error message visibility to authorized recipients, directly reducing unauthorized exposure of sensitive information.
Filtering output to only permitted content stops unintended disclosure of sensitive information to unauthorized actors.
Automated marking applies security attributes to system outputs, making it harder for attackers to exploit unmarked sensitive information leading to unauthorized exposure.
Proper attribute retention and permitted-value enforcement limits unauthorized actors from accessing sensitive information lacking correct labels.
Prevents unauthorized exposure of sensitive information by prohibiting untrusted external systems from processing or storing it.
