Integer Overflow or Wraparound (CWE-190)

Integer Overflow or Wraparound

The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound, when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value.

An integer overflow occurs when an arithmetic operation attempts to create a numeric value that is outside of the range that can be represented with a given number of bits. This can lead to buffer overflows, incorrect financial calculations, or security bypasses.

Reglas de Detección (3)

🐹 Go 1 rules

Integer Overflow via Unchecked Arithmetic MEDIUM

User-controlled integer used in arithmetic or allocation without bounds checking.

🟨 Javascript 1 rules

Integer Overflow via Unchecked Arithmetic MEDIUM

Detects user-controlled values flowing into arithmetic operations without bounds checking. While JavaScript uses 64-bit floats for most numbers, integer overflow is still a concern in these scenarios: 1. TypedArrays (Uint8Array, Int32Array, etc.) - values wrap on overflow 2. Bitwise operations - convert to 32-bit signed integers 3. Large number arithmetic affecting security decisions 4. Array/Buffer allocation with user-controlled sizes Common vulnerable patterns: - Buffer allocation: Buffer.a
