Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly requires re-authentication before permitting a password change, blocking the unverified change vector in CVE-2026-9249.

prevent

Enforces the access-control policy that a password-change request must include and validate the current credential.

prevent

Mandates proper account-management procedures, including verification steps for password modifications.

degrades

Requires secure management of authentication information, directly addressing the need to verify the original password before allowing a change.

prevents

Mandates secure authentication mechanisms, which include verifying existing credentials before permitting password changes.

none

Identity management processes can incorporate verification steps, but the control itself does not explicitly require password-change verification.

none

Information access restriction can be strengthened by password verification, yet the control focuses on access rights rather than change procedures.
