The underlying weakness: Use of Hard-coded, Security-relevant Constants
The product uses hard-coded constants instead of symbolic names for security-critical values, which increases the likelihood of mistakes during code maintenance or security policy change.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Avoid using hard-coded constants. Configuration files offer a more flexible solution.
