Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly counters CWE-78 by requiring validation and neutralization of untrusted input before it is used in OS command construction.
Restricts the set of privileged operations and accounts that can reach the vulnerable command paths, limiting the impact of a successful local injection.
Mandates timely application of vendor patches that correct the improper neutralization flaw in the affected Data Domain releases.

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's SDLC practices directly require secure coding and input handling that blocks command-injection defects, yet the single broad outcome leaves many specific neutralization vectors and verification gaps unaddressed.
Routine patching/maintenance can remediate known command-injection CVEs in dependencies (partial forward) but does nothing to stop developers from introducing improper neutralization in custom code (none reverse).

Security testing and code review target insecure use of operating-system command interfaces, catching command-injection flaws introduced during development.
