CWE-19: CWE CATEGORY: Data Processing Errors is a Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) entry maintained by MITRE. Weaknesses in this category are typically found in functionality that processes data. Data processing is the manipulation of input to retrieve or save information.
A CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) like CWE-19 describes a category of software weakness — the underlying flaw type. A CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) identifies a specific, real-world vulnerability in a particular product. In short, a CWE is the kind of mistake, and a CVE is an instance of that mistake being found in software.
