CWE-1351Improper Handling of Hardware Behavior in Exceptionally Cold Environments

Category: other

Description

A hardware device, or the firmware running on it, is missing or has incorrect protection features to maintain goals of security primitives when the device is cooled below standard operating temperatures.

Common consequences· 1

  • Integrity / Authentication — Varies by Context, Unexpected State
    Consequences of this weakness are highly contextual.

Potential mitigations· 1

  • [Architecture and Design]The system should account for security primitive behavior when cooled outside standard temperatures.
