CWE-1188: Initialization of a Resource with an Insecure Default

ID CWE-1188
Abstraction Base
Structure Simple
Status Incomplete
Number of CVEs 161
The product initializes or sets a resource with a default that is intended to be changed by the administrator, but the default is not secure.

Developers often choose default values that leave the product as open and easy to use as possible out-of-the-box, under the assumption that the administrator can (or should) change the default value. However, this ease-of-use comes at a cost when the default is insecure and the administrator does not change it.
