IDTitleDescription
CCC.LB.TH01Unrestricted Request Traffic Overwhelms Downstream ServicesAbsence of filtering or rate limiting permits traffic to overload downstream services and facilitates brute-force activity.
CCC.LB.TH12Application-Layer Inspection Is Absent or BypassedThe web application firewall may not be attached to the listener, may run in detection-only mode, or may be bypassed by traffic that is passed at layer 4 or carried over an upgraded WebSocket connection. Malformed or exploit payloads then reach backend targets without inspection, compromising the integrity and availability of those targets.
