Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Input validation directly stops construction of absolute paths from untrusted data before they reach file operations.

Enforced access authorizations can limit which resources are reachable even if a traversal succeeds.

prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation and path sanitization that prevent absolute path traversal.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle includes input validation and path-handling requirements that reduce absolute path traversal risk.

prevents

Application security requirements typically mandate controls against path traversal in file-access functions.

prevents

Secure architecture principles call for canonicalization and sandboxing that limit absolute path traversal.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly require neutralization of absolute path sequences in pathname construction.

finds

Security testing in development can detect absolute path traversal via static analysis and fuzzing.

mitigates

Information access restriction limits which files can be reached but does not address the path-construction flaw itself.
