Towards Vulnerabilities Caused by Application Configuring: A Meta Analysis of the National Vulnerability Database
- Configuring applications might lead to diverse security issues. In this study, 263 vulnerabilities of the National Vul-nerability Database were analyzed, which were caused by application configuring. Seven key characteristics and three research opportunities were proposed. In most cases, such vulnerabilities emerge in clients of web applications and their network components with a medium-high severity, typically leading to access, data manipulation, and resulting system errors.
