CWE-398: Indicator of Poor Code Quality
Description Summary The code has features that do not directly introduce a weakness or vulnerability, but indicate that the product has not been carefully developed or maintained.
Extended Description Programs are more likely to be secure when good development practices are followed. If a program is complex, difficult to maintain, not portable, or shows evidence of neglect, then there is a higher likelihood that weaknesses are buried in the code.
