This section includes everything that is outside of the source code but is still critical to the security of the product that is being created. Because the issues covered by this kingdom are not directly related to source code, we separated it from the rest of the kingdoms.
ASP.NET Misconfiguration: Use of Impersonation Context
Abstract
Configuring an ASP.NET application to run with impersonated credentials might give the application unnecessary privileges.
Explanation
The use of impersonated credentials allows an ASP.NET application to run with either the privileges of the client on whose behalf it is executing or with arbitrary privileges granted in its configuration.
