CWE-1351: Improper Handling of Hardware Behavior in Exceptionally Cold Environments
Improper Handling of Hardware Behavior in Exceptionally Cold Environments represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
Executive Impact
- Integrity,Authentication: Varies by Context,Unexpected State: Consequences of this weakness are highly contextual.
Developer Pattern
CWE-1351 is the kind of defect developers can usually prevent with explicit validation, safer framework defaults, and tests that exercise hostile input or unsafe state transitions.
Automation confidence
high confidence from CWE-1351, 4.20.
Generated from the cited source records. This long-tail analysis has not been individually reviewed by a named human.
Official CWE Definition
CWE-1351: Improper Handling of Hardware Behavior in Exceptionally Cold Environments
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.
Developer And Remediation Guidance
How teams prevent and detect this weakness
Causes
- Missing validation
- Unsafe defaults
- Insufficient authorization or memory-safety invariant
Remediation
- Architecture and Design: The system should account for security primitive behavior when cooled outside standard temperatures.
Detection
- Code review
- SAST
- DAST
- Focused regression tests
