CWE-292: DEPRECATED: Trusting Self-reported DNS Name is a Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) entry maintained by MITRE. This entry has been deprecated because it was a duplicate of CWE-350. All content has been transferred to CWE-350.
A CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) like CWE-292 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.
