Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match

Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation partial match

Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.

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

Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

SI-10 Information Input Validation partial match

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.

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
blocks

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).

PR.DS-10 none match
blocks

PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.
