Summary
Weaknesses in this category are related to the "OT Counterfeit and Malicious Corruption" category
from the SEI ETF "Categories of Security Vulnerabilities in ICS" as published in March 2022:
"In ICS, when this procurement process results in a vulnerability or component damage, it can

notes.
Maintenance
This category might be subject to CWE Scope Exclusion SCOPE.HUMANPROC (Human/
organizational process).
Maintenance
This category was created in CWE 4.7 to facilitate and illuminate discussion about weaknesses
in ICS with [REF-1248] as a starting point. After the release of CWE 4.9 in October 2022, this
has been under active review by members of the "Boosting CWE" subgroup of the CWE-CAPEC
ICS/OT Special Interest Group (SIG). Relationships are still subject to change. In addition, there
may be some issues in [REF-1248] that are outside of the current scope of CWE, which will
require consultation with many CWE stakeholders to resolve.
