Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Enforcing approved authorizations on every access request structurally stops a user-controlled key from reaching another user's data.

Explicit requirement to protect session authenticity structurally prevents the weakness for communications.

Requiring explicit access-control decisions on each request blocks unauthorized key-driven access.

Integrity verification tools detect (but do not stop) the acceptance of data lacking authenticity.

Least-privilege restrictions limit the scope of data reachable even if a key check is bypassed.

Cryptographic mechanisms can be used to verify authenticity, thereby preventing acceptance of invalid data.

PR.AA-05 full match
prevents

Enforcing authorization policy and least privilege directly blocks user-controlled key tampering that bypasses access checks.

PR.IR-01 mostly match
prevents

Logical access controls prevent unauthorized data access that results from missing authorization checks on object references.

RC.RP-05 mostly match
degrades

CWE-345 directly impairs RC.RP-05's verification of restored-asset integrity/authenticity, largely defeating the outcome while still leaving other restoration-confirmation steps partially viable.

finds

Security testing can detect missing or weak data authenticity verification.

prevents

Information access restriction explicitly enforces that users may only retrieve data they are authorized to see, directly addressing user-controlled key bypass.

prevents

Access control policy directly requires enforcement of authorization rules that prevent unauthorized access via manipulated keys.

prevents

Managing access rights includes ensuring users can only access their own records and not bypass authorization by altering identifiers.

mitigates

Privileged access rights control restricts what data each user may access, mitigating direct object reference attacks.

mitigates

Network controls can enforce authenticated channels, reducing risk of accepting unauthentic data.
