Class FindingType (1.11.1)

FindingType(value)

Types of Findings.

Values: FINDING_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED (0): The invalid finding type. MIXED_CONTENT (1): A page that was served over HTTPS also resources over HTTP. A man-in-the-middle attacker could tamper with the HTTP resource and gain full access to the website that loads the resource or to monitor the actions taken by the user. OUTDATED_LIBRARY (2): The version of an included library is known to contain a security issue. The scanner checks the version of library in use against a known list of vulnerable libraries. False positives are possible if the version detection fails or if the library has been manually patched. ROSETTA_FLASH (5): This type of vulnerability occurs when the value of a request parameter is reflected at the beginning of the response, for example, in requests using JSONP. Under certain circumstances, an attacker may be able to supply an alphanumeric-only Flash file in the vulnerable parameter causing the browser to execute the Flash file as if it originated on the vulnerable server. XSS_CALLBACK (3): A cross-site scripting (XSS) bug is found via JavaScript callback. For detailed explanations on XSS, see https://www.google.com/about/appsecurity/learning/xss/. XSS_ERROR (4): A potential cross-site scripting (XSS) bug due to JavaScript breakage. In some circumstances, the application under test might modify the test string before it is parsed by the browser. When the browser attempts to runs this modified test string, it will likely break and throw a JavaScript execution error, thus an injection issue is occurring. However, it may not be exploitable. Manual verification is needed to see if the test string modifications can be evaded and confirm that the issue is in fact an XSS vulnerability. For detailed explanations on XSS, see https://www.google.com/about/appsecurity/learning/xss/. CLEAR_TEXT_PASSWORD (6): An application appears to be transmitting a password field in clear text. An attacker can eavesdrop network traffic and sniff the password field. INVALID_CONTENT_TYPE (7): An application returns sensitive content with an invalid content type, or without an 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff' header. XSS_ANGULAR_CALLBACK (8): A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in AngularJS module that occurs when a user-provided string is interpolated by Angular. INVALID_HEADER (9): A malformed or invalid valued header. MISSPELLED_SECURITY_HEADER_NAME (10): Misspelled security header name. MISMATCHING_SECURITY_HEADER_VALUES (11): Mismatching values in a duplicate security header.
