Threat P.T.P-iDFDI.0

URI: P.T.P-iDFDI.0

Package: DataLifecycle

< prev | next >

Description: Stale input Data from FlowsFrom delays Process: since process Process uses the copy of data Data arriving from FlowsFrom and not updated by an interactive user, if that copy becomes out of date, Process will be performing computation based on out of date information.

Threat Type: Secondary Threat

Matching Pattern:

MP-P-iDFDI

Finds a data flow to a process that uses the data as input, where the data does not come from an interactive user, plus optionally the process manager. The Process is matched twice, so it can be referred to by either role name.

Triggered by Threat (3)

DF.T.HPDSDADF.0

Service Process serves an out of date stored copy of data Data to FlowsTo: if the locally stored copy of Data on Host served by Process is out of date, so will the flow of Data served to FlowsTo.

DF.T.HP-iDODF.0

Output Data produced by Process based on out of date inputs: if process Process is unable to access inputs in a timely manner, then the output Data it sends to FlowsTo will also be out of date.

DF.T.HuirPiDF.0

User Human interacting with Process provides out of date input Data: user Human provides out of date input Data to Process, due to having not previously received data in a timely fashion from the system.

Triggers Secondary Threats (3)

DF.T.HP-iDODF.0

Output Data produced by Process based on out of date inputs: if process Process is unable to access inputs in a timely manner, then the output Data it sends to FlowsTo will also be out of date.

DS.T.HP-iDOdDS.0

Output Data computed by Process from stale inputs is stored on Host: if process Process uses out of date inputs, then its output Data computed by Process (not obtained from a user) and saved locally on device Host will also be out of date.

Hu.T.HuirPv-iD.0

User Human affected by out of date output Data from Process: if process Process is using out of date input, any output it provides for display to interactive user Human will be out of date, and will affect the user.
