CWE CATEGORY: DEPRECATED: Technology-Specific Input Validation ProblemsCategory ID: 100 Vulnerability Mapping:
PROHIBITEDThis CWE ID must not be used to map to real-world vulnerabilities
|
Summary This category has been deprecated. It was originally intended as a "catch-all" for input validation problems in technologies that did not have their own CWE, but introduces unnecessary depth to the hierarchy. Vulnerability Mapping Notes Usage: PROHIBITED (this CWE ID must not be used to map to real-world vulnerabilities) | Reasons: Category, Deprecated | Rationale: This CWE has been deprecated. It is also a Category. Using categories for mapping has been discouraged since 2019. Categories are informal organizational groupings of weaknesses that can help CWE users with data aggregation, navigation, and browsing. However, they are not weaknesses in themselves. | Comments: See the summary, which might have suggestions for other CWEs to consider. |
