CWE CATEGORY: CERT C++ Secure Coding Section 06 - Arrays and the STL (ARR)Category ID: 874 Vulnerability Mapping:
PROHIBITEDThis CWE ID must not be used to map to real-world vulnerabilities
|
Summary Weaknesses in this category are related to rules in the Arrays and the STL (ARR) section of the CERT C++ Secure Coding Standard. Since not all rules map to specific weaknesses, this category may be incomplete. Membership Nature | Type | ID | Name |

MemberOf | View - a subset of CWE entries that provides a way of examining CWE content. The two main view structures are Slices (flat lists) and Graphs (containing relationships between entries). | 868 | Weaknesses Addressed by the SEI CERT C++ Coding Standard (2016 Version) | HasMember | Class - a weakness that is described in a very abstract fashion, typically independent of any specific language or technology. More specific than a Pillar Weakness, but more general than a Base Weakness. Class level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 1 or 2 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, and resource. | 119 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer | HasMember | Variant - a weakness
that is linked to a certain type of product, typically involving a specific language or technology. More specific than a Base weakness. Variant level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 3 to 5 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, technology, language, and resource. | 129 | Improper Validation of Array Index | HasMember | Variant - a weakness
that is linked to a certain type of product, typically involving a specific language or technology. More specific than a Base weakness. Variant level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 3 to 5 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, technology, language, and resource. | 467 | Use of sizeof() on a Pointer Type | HasMember | Base - a weakness
that is still mostly independent of a resource or technology, but with sufficient details to provide specific methods for detection and prevention. Base level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 2 or 3 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, technology, language, and resource. | 469 | Use of Pointer Subtraction to Determine Size | HasMember | Class - a weakness that is described in a very abstract fashion, typically independent of any specific language or technology. More specific than a Pillar Weakness, but more general than a Base Weakness. Class level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 1 or 2 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, and resource. | 665 | Improper Initialization | HasMember | Base - a weakness
that is still mostly independent of a resource or technology, but with sufficient details to provide specific methods for detection and prevention. Base level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 2 or 3 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, technology, language, and resource. | 805 | Buffer Access with Incorrect Length Value |
Vulnerability Mapping Notes Usage: PROHIBITED (this CWE ID must not be used to map to real-world vulnerabilities) | Reason: Category | Rationale: This entry is 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 member weaknesses of this category. |
