[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] PROPOSAL: Cluster 31 - CFMISC (18 candidates)
The following candidates are miscellaneous configuration problems. Some are likely to get REJECTed. Others illustrate some challenges with respect to describing configuration problems, either at the right level of abstraction, or when the configuration provides some access to an individual, but only the enterprise can know if that particular individual should have that access. Most of these vulnerabilities are reported by security tools.
