Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Ensuring access control decisions are made and applied to every request before enforcement directly prevents improper access control by requiring policy-based checks.
Enforcing approved authorizations directly implements access control policies to block unauthorized access.
The access control policy and procedures directly mandate and enforce proper access control mechanisms across the organization.
Supervision and review of access control activities directly detects and remediates improper access configurations or usages.
Explicitly identifying and documenting actions permitted without identification or authentication enforces proper access control boundaries by defining justified exceptions.
Associating and retaining security attributes with data directly supports enforcement of access control decisions across storage, processing, and transmission.
Requiring prior authorization for each remote access type prevents improper access control over remote connections.
Requiring authorization of wireless access before allowing connections enforces proper access control for this access method.
