Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-11 Error Handling good match

SI-11 directly requires error messages to avoid revealing exploitable information, structurally preventing the exact leakage described by CWE-550.

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 full match
prevents

Secure SDLC explicitly requires sanitized error handling and information disclosure controls.

PR.PS-01 mostly match
prevents

Hardened baselines and config management directly suppress verbose server error output.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

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

Security testing can detect and require remediation of verbose error messages.

A.8.15 Logging partial match
degrades

Logging policy can require suppression of sensitive data in error responses.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure SDLC mandates handling of error messages to avoid information disclosure.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements can specify safe error handling and generic messages.

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

Secure architecture principles include proper exception handling to prevent leakage.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards prohibit embedding sensitive data in server error messages.
