The product uses a mechanism that automatically optimizes code, e.g. to improve a characteristic such as performance, but the optimizations can have an unintended side effect that might violate an intended security assumption.
Modes of Introduction:
– Architecture and Design
Likelihood of Exploit: Low
Related Weaknesses
Consequences
Integrity: Alter Execution Logic
The optimizations alter the order of execution resulting in side effects that were not intended by the original developer.
