Reino: Input Validation and Representation

Los problemas de validación y representación de entradas están causados por metacaracteres, codificaciones alternativas y representaciones numéricas. Los problemas de seguridad surgen de entradas en las que se confía. Estos problemas incluyen: «desbordamientos de búfer», ataques de «scripts de sitios», "SQL injection" y muchas otras acciones.

Struts 2: Undeclared Validator

Abstract
Un validador al que se hace referencia en ActionClass-validation.xml no está declarado en validators.xml
Explanation
Struts2 requiere que se definan validadores personalizados en validators.xml antes de usarse en una definición de validador de acción. La falta de definiciones de validador es señal de que la validación no está actualizada.

Ejemplo 1: El siguiente validador de acción no se definió en validators.xml.

<validators>
<validator name="required" class="com.opensymphony.xwork2.validator.validators.RequiredFieldValidator"/>
</validators>


Es de vital importancia que la lógica de validación se mantenga y se mantenga sincronizada con el resto de la aplicación. La entrada sin marcar es la causa principal de algunos de los problemas de seguridad de software peores y más comunes de la actualidad. Los ataques Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection y las vulnerabilidades detectadas en el control de los procesos tienen todos su origen en la validación incorrecta o inexistente de entradas. Aunque las aplicaciones J2EE no suelen ser susceptibles a ataques de corrupción de memoria, si una aplicación J2EE interactúa con código nativo que no comprueba límites de matriz, un atacante puede usar un error de validación de entrada en la aplicación J2EE para lanzar un ataque de desbordamiento de búfer.
