Excessive Data Query Operations in a Large Data Table
CWE-1049
CVSS severity (NVD, All Time)
Per technology (GHSA, All time)
100%-Composer
Short description
The product performs a data query with a large number of joins
and sub-queries on a large data table.
Extended description
This issue can make the product perform more slowly. If the relevant code is reachable by an attacker, then this performance problem might introduce a vulnerability.
While the interpretation of "large data table" and "large number of joins or sub-queries" may vary for each product or developer, CISQ recommends a default of 1 million rows for a "large" data table, a default minimum of 5 joins, and a default minimum of 3 sub-queries.
