Description
This entry is no longer active. It was merged into CWE-441 (The 'Proxied Trusted Channel' weakness) to eliminate duplication. Please refer to CWE-441 for all related information.
CWE-423 was retired because it described the same core security flaw as CWE-441. In software maintenance, consolidating duplicate entries helps developers and security teams find consistent, authoritative guidance faster, avoiding confusion and wasted effort. If you arrived here looking for details on 'Proxied Trusted Channel' vulnerabilities—where an attacker can manipulate a trusted front-end component to bypass security checks—you should now consult CWE-441. That entry contains the complete, updated technical description, examples, and potential mitigations.
