CWE-835 : Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')
The product contains an iteration or loop with an exit condition that cannot be reached, i.e., an infinite loop. Chain: an operating system does not properly process malformed Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) Type/Length/Value Identifiers (TLV) (CWE-703), which can cause the process to enter an infinite loop (CWE-835) A Python machine communication platform did not account for receiving a malformed packet with a null size, causing the receiving function to never update the message buffer and be caught in an infinite loop. Chain: off-by-one error (CWE-193) leads to infinite loop (CWE-835) using invalid hex-encoded characters. Chain: self-referential values in recursive definitions lead to infinite loop. NULL UDP packet is never cleared from a queue, leading to infinite loop. Chain: web browser crashes due to infinite loop - "badlooping logic [that relies on] floating point math [CWE-1339] to exitthe loop [CWE-835]" Floating point conversion routine cycles back and forth between two different values. Floating point conversion routine cycles back and forth between two different values. Chain: improperly clearing a pointer in a linked list leads to infinite loop. Chain: an integer overflow (CWE-190) in the image size calculation causes an infinite loop (CWE-835) which sequentially allocates buffers without limits (CWE-1325) until the stack is full. Chain: A denial of service may be caused by an uninitialized variable (CWE-457) allowing an infinite loop (CWE-835) resulting from a connection to an unresponsive server.
