Description
The product uses a hard-coded, unchangeable cryptographic key.
Potential Impact
- Access Control: Bypass Protection Mechanism
How to Fix
Architecture and Design
Prevention schemes mirror that of hard-coded password storage.
Detection Methods
- Automated Static Analysis: Automated static analysis, commonly referred to as Static Application Security Testing (SAST), can find some instances of this weakness by analyzing source code (or binary/compiled code) without havin...
