Wrong CWE list in X01:2025 (copied from A06) #914

Description

Problem

In X01_2025-Next_Steps.md, the X01:2025 Lack of Application Resilience
section
contains an incorrect "List of Mapped CWEs".

Evidence

  1. Background section (line 12) mentions relevant CWEs as:

    • CWE-400 Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
    • CWE-409 Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification)
    • CWE-674 Uncontrolled Recursion
    • CWE-835 Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')
  2. Score table (lines 18-59) states "CWEs Mapped: 16"

  3. List of Mapped CWEs section (lines 110-149) contains 39 entries:

    • None of which include CWE-400, 409, 674, or 835
    • The 39 CWEs listed are identical to A06:2025 Insecure Design's CWE
      list

Root Cause (suspected)

The CWE list for X01:2025 appears to have been accidentally copied from A06_2025-Insecure_Design.md during document preparation.

Expected

The X01:2025 CWE list should:

  • Match the count in the score table (16)
  • Include the CWEs mentioned in the Background section (400, 409, 674, 835)
  • Contain resilience-related CWEs appropriate for this category

Files affected

  • 2025/docs/en/X01_2025-Next_Steps.md
  • Section: X01:2025 Lack of Application Resilience
  • Lines: 110-149 (List of Mapped CWEs)
