UC-VULN-07 — Harden runtime error handling, output filtering, and memory
Build and configure software so that failures and outputs cannot be weaponized: handle errors gracefully, generating only the minimum information needed for correction and revealing no sensitive data in messages or logs. Validate and filter information output from applications so it matches expected content and format before release to users or downstream systems. Enable hardware- and OS-level memory protections such as data-execution prevention and address-space layout randomization on all supporting systems.
