CWE-551 Incorrect Behavior Order: Authorization Before Parsing and Canonicalization
Since abstraction of nodes is primarily based on behaviors and weaknesses, and the view only covers weaknesses, a higher-level node could be used to provide guidance on how to identify potential new children. For example, CWE-118 (Improper Access of Indexable Resource) only has one child under view 1000, CWE-119 (Failure to Constrain Operations within the Bounds of an Allocated Memory Buffer). By considering other types of indexable resources, one could identify equivalent weaknesses, such as access of file segments through user-controlled file offsets.
In views such as 699, which have a less formal organization, the identification of gaps would be more haphazard and less systematic.
