CWE-1263: Improper Physical Access Control

ID CWE-1263
Abstraction Class
Structure Simple
Status Incomplete
Number of CVEs 8
The product is designed with access restricted to certain information, but it does not sufficiently protect against an unauthorized actor with physical access to these areas.

Sections of a product intended to have restricted access may be inadvertently or intentionally rendered accessible when the implemented physical protections are insufficient. The specific requirements around how robust the design of the physical protection mechanism needs to be depends on the type of product being protected. Selecting the correct physical protection mechanism and properly enforcing it through implementation and manufacturing are critical to the overall physical security of the product.

Modes of Introduction

Phase Note
Architecture and Design This weakness can arise if design decisions are made that do not align with the intended physical protection of the product
Manufacturing While the architecture and design phase of the product may have accurately met the intended robustness for product physical protections, this phase may introduce the weakness through errors in physically manufacturing the product.
