Vulnerability Data

An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject malicious input into the ModbusServer application because it does not validate the input it fetches from MQTT. This may lead to integrity and availability loss.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Input validation directly stops untrusted data containing CRLF sequences from reaching the component that treats CRLF as a delimiter.

prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require input neutralization and validation to block CRLF injection.

finds

Security testing can detect CRLF flaws but does not itself implement the neutralization.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevents CRLF injection.

prevents

Application security requirements include rules for neutralizing special characters such as CRLF in inputs.

prevents

Secure architecture principles encourage safe handling of untrusted data but do not prescribe specific CRLF controls.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly require neutralization of CRLF sequences, fully addressing this weakness.
