When access control checks are not applied, users are able to access data or perform actions that they should not be allowed to access or perform. The lack of access control checks can cause the exposure of information, denial of service, and arbitrary code execution. We recommend that you apply access control checks to all access points.

Missing Authorization

Missing authorization checks can lead to unauthorized access to a resource or performance of an action.

Improper input validation can enable attacks and lead to unwanted behavior. Parts of the system may receive unintended input, which could result in altered control flow, arbitrary control of a resource, or arbitrary code execution.

Improper Input Validation

Improper input validation can enable attacks and lead to unwanted behavior.

Dereferencing a null pointer can lead to unexpected null pointer exceptions. Consider adding a null check before dereferencing the pointer.
