Failures Are Among Us

Software and Data Integrity Failures are a class of vulnerability where insufficient measures are taken to ensure data integrity.

The main place where Software And Data Integrity Failures happen is when data is used as behavior. For example, an individual who updates their software might download a newer version of a program and run that version. If the integrity of this data isn’t verified, bad things can happen. Software And Data Integrity Failures can also happen during deserialization or the building of software.

Software and Data Integrity Failures are dangerous because of the access they can give attackers and how easily they can affect many victims.
