ID
CWE-1041
Abstraction
Base
Structure
Simple
Status
Incomplete
The product has multiple functions, methods, procedures, macros, etc. that
contain the same code.
This issue makes it more difficult to maintain the product, which indirectly affects security by making it more difficult or time-consuming to find and/or fix vulnerabilities. For example, if there are two copies of the same code, the programmer might fix a weakness in one copy while forgetting to fix the same weakness in another copy.
