CWE is sponsored by the U. CWE Glossary Definition. Weakness ID: Status: Stable. Presentation Filter:. A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit. Extended Description.

NULL pointer dereference issues can occur through a number of flaws, including race conditions, and simple programming omissions. This table shows the weaknesses and high level categories that are related to this weakness.

These relationships are defined as ChildOf, ParentOf, MemberOf and give insight to similar items that may exist at higher and lower levels of abstraction. In addition, relationships such as PeerOf and CanAlsoBe are defined to show similar weaknesses that the user may want to explore. More specific than a Pillar Weakness, but more general than a Base Weakness. Class level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 1 or 2 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, and resource.

A Pillar is different from a Category as a Pillar is still technically a type of weakness that describes a mistake, while a Category represents a common characteristic used to group related things.

One weakness, X, can directly create the conditions that are necessary to cause another weakness, Y, to enter a vulnerable condition. Chains can involve more than two weaknesses, and in some cases, they might have a tree-like structure.

Base level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 2 or 3 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, technology, language, and resource. More specific than a Base weakness. Variant level weaknesses typically describe issues in terms of 3 to 5 of the following dimensions: behavior, property, technology, language, and resource.

Modes Of Introduction. The different Modes of Introduction provide information about how and when this weakness may be introduced. The Phase identifies a point in the life cycle at which introduction may occur, while the Note provides a typical scenario related to introduction during the given phase.

Phase Note Implementation. Applicable Platforms. This listing shows possible areas for which the given weakness could appear. These may be for specific named Languages, Operating Systems, Architectures, Paradigms, Technologies, or a class of such platforms.

The platform is listed along with how frequently the given weakness appears for that instance. Languages C Undetermined Prevalence. Java Undetermined Prevalence. C Undetermined Prevalence. A null-pointer dereference takes place when a pointer with a value of NULL is used as though it pointed to a valid memory area.

Null-pointer dereferences, while common, can generally be found and corrected in a simple way. Since NULL pointer dereference errors mostly result in application crash, they are usually scored with availability impact only. A common CVSS score for locally exploitable vulnerability in client application would look like this: 2.

If a high-privileged application, such as driver or critical system service contains a NULL pointer dereference error, it should be scored with complete availability impact, since crash of such application may render system inaccessible: 4. In cases of remote code execution, it is usually scored with medium or high access complexity metric: 9.

Our CVSSv2 scores are based on our long internal experience in software auditing and penetration testing, taking into consideration a lot of practical nuances and details.

NULL pointer dereference issues frequently result from rarely encountered error conditions and are most likely to escape detection during testing. The best way to avoid appearance of this weakness is to follow programming best practices:.

Can someone please explain to me in layman's terms exactly what this is and why it is bad?

Improve this question. Ash Ash Keep in mind doing so results in undefined behavior. You might want to put down some example code. It seems that people including me don't get what you are trying to ask. No need for code there isn't any - This is a conceptual problem I am having, trying to get my head around the terminology of "dereferencing" and why I should be caring about it.

Thanks for this question. It's been bothering me for a while, to ask this : — William Martens. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Improve this answer. Greg Hewgill Greg Hewgill k gold badges silver badges bronze badges. Ash: A pointer contains a memory address that references to something. To access that something referenced by that memory address, you have to de-reference the memory address.

Ash, which In silico said, but when you de-reference you getting the value that is stored at the memory address. Give it a try. I think it's important to also state that it's undefined behavior, assuming that Adam Rosenfield's answer is correct. Show 1 more comment.

All rights reserved. Introduction our previous efforts, and was mainly undertaken for improving the separating performance of the PDMS membrane for better process As an important intermediate for rubber synthesis, 2,3- efficiency.

For removing relatively larger organic species e. Recovery of 2,3-butanediol poses many chal- alcohols , zeolites with larger molecular sized pores are needed.

Therefore no single separating pro- 0. We recently proposed filled in PDMS membrane, could considerably improve the recov- an integrated process for dealing with this challenging separation ery of ethanol from the fermentation broth based on hydrophobic [3]. In this approach, 2,3-butanediol would first be recovered from interactions [12]. It is thus expected that the ZSM-5 zeolite filled the fermentation broth using 1-butanol as the extracting solvent.

The The focus of the present work is to evaluate the effects of ZSM- membrane showed preferential permeation for both water and 5 zeolite loading on membrane permeation and separation. The 1-butanol. The product 2,3-butanediol was finally enriched as a tradeoff between permeability and selectivity of the filled PDMS retentate in the feed stream.

The feasibility of this process had been membranes with various ZSM-5 loadings was investigated, and an demonstrated by a batch operation, where 2,3-butanediol with optimal ZSM-5 loading in the membrane was obtained.

Based on purity up to This work is a continuation of the available permeability data, a continuous operation was simu- lated, in which 2,3-butanediol was enriched from 5.

Shao, A. Pure water The pre-purified helium Pre-dried ZSM-5 powder was added to the prepared 10 wt. Results and discussion added varied from 20, 40, 80 to wt. A portion of 27 ml suspension was used for making each membrane coupon in a 3-dish The SEM images of cross-sections of three filled PDMS mem- 85 mm in diameter Teflon plate.

After pentane evaporation, the branes with different ZSM-5 loadings 20, 40, and 80 wt. It can be seen that with sonication treatment a uni- to perform crosslinking for 12 h. Membrane thickness can also be estimated using the mean solvent pentane used for the membrane preparation. As a result, the highly discrimina- of the approaches. Scanning electron microscopy characterization of the the agglomerates.

On the other hand, it also had been noticed that membranes good dispersion of the particles in a membrane matrix does not necessarily guarantee that the surface flow can exercise its highly Prepared membrane samples were immersed in liquid nitro- selective performance.

The dispersed particles need meanwhile to gen for 30 s, and cut with scissors into strips. Fortunately, Fig. Evaluation of the membrane performance by the surrounding PDMS phase, and it appears that the zeolite has a good interface compatibility with the hydrophobic PDMS material. During the pervaporation operation the down- changing loading of the filler in the membrane matrix as long as a stream pressure of the membrane was maintained at 2 mmHg good inter-phase compatibility can be ensured.

Hydrophobic nature of the ZSM-5 zeolite and transport ation reached a steady state. The small quantity of water can serve as a probe The ratio of permeabilities is equivalent to the ratio of transport molecule for testing the hydrophobicity of the ZSM-5 filled in the resistances of the membranes with and without filler. Theoret- PDMS membrane.

This char- approach unity, and this trend is shown in Fig. For the ZSM-5 filled PDMS membrane, this permeation order to the presence of the filler in the membrane, suggesting that the was changed as shown in Fig. The highest permeability of presence of ZSM-5 zeolite filler relatively improved the permeation the filled membranes 20, 40, and 80 wt. The hydrophobic nature of the filled ZSM-5 explains this less permeation resistance for the transport of both species, and change quite well.

In order to clearly demonstrate the effect of this probably result from the higher degree of membrane swelling fillers on the permeability of the three species, the permeability due to the outstanding capability of 1-butanol in plasticizing PDMS data corresponding to 43 wt.

And in this situation, both the permeating species plotted against the mass percentage of ZSM-5 in Fig. It can be seen that due to the hydrophobicity of structure when diffusing through the mixed matrix membrane.

ZSM-5, the filled membranes showed decreased permeabilities for Therefore, the membrane swelling should be minimized so that all the three species, including the relatively hydrophobic species, the filler particles can have better chance to influence the overall 1-butanol.

The ratio of permeabilities of the un-filled to a filled PDMS mem- brane is plotted against the mass percentage of ZSM-5 in the mixed 3. The effects of ZSM-5 loading on the membrane performance matrix membrane as shown in Fig.

According to Eq. This observation suggests that swelling occurred in the ZSM-5 loading in the PDMS membrane increases, implying that continuous phase PDMS of the filled membrane though it was the membrane swelling was suppressed with more filler incor- effectively lowered by the presence of filler, which as discussed porated into the PDMS matrix.

Firstly, the well-defined zeolite It is difficult to evaluate this part of contribution since the selec- structure is usually not susceptible to the presence of interacting tive surface flow through the zeolite pores [22—24] also played a molecules therefore essentially no swelling occurs to the zeolite part in enhanced membrane selectivity.

New trade agreements, rapidly advancing technologies and the emergence of developing countries are all contributing to today's business environment. Canada needs to keep pace. Part of my mandate is to help make Canadians more productive and competitive. We want our industries to continue to thrive and all Canadians to continue to enjoy one of the highest standards of living in the world.

For this to happen, the government is committed to maintaining a fair, efficient and competitive marketplace — one that encourages investment, sets the stage for greater productivity, and facilitates innovation. We are relying on market forces to a greater extent, regulating only when it is absolutely necessary.

Our policies have helped turn research into new products and business processes. In addition, we are making efforts to increase awareness of sustainability practices among Canadian industry, emphasizing the social, environmental and economic benefits they bring. The Department and the Industry Portfolio have made progress on a wide range of issues this past year, most notably in the areas of telecommunications, science and practical research, manufacturing, small business, consumer protection, patents and copyrights, tourism and economic development.

The Industry Portfolio is composed of Industry Canada and 10 other agencies, Crown corporations and quasi-judicial bodies. These organizations collectively advance Canada's industrial, scientific and economic development, and help ensure that we remain competitive in the global marketplace.

We have accomplished much this year. Using Advantage Canada — the government's long-term economic plan — as our roadmap, we have made great strides toward many of our most important goals.

We will continue to focus on these goals to support the conditions for a strong economy — an environment that Canadians expect and deserve. NRC's primary business is:. NRC delivers on its strategic outcome by creating wealth, knowledge and social capital for Canadians. NRC's Strategic Outcome: An innovative, knowledge-based economy for Canada through research and development, technology commercialization and industry support.

Priority no. The social well-being of Canadians was also enhanced through NRC 's support of its clients' products, many of which fell within the federal government's key strategic areas of health, environment, energy and ICT.

NRC enhanced services in such areas as: facilitating multi-stakeholder collaborations; forging stronger links for technology based SME s to access publicly-funded research and sources of technology; and, supporting SME efforts to access foreign technology and form international alliances. For example, one project supported Tool-Tec Welding in developing an automated robotic multilayer Tungsten Inert Gas welding system.

This includes an information intelligence service that offers information synthesis, analysis and competitive technical services to institutes, clusters and NRC industrial technology advisors across Canada. The result was improved decision-making and outcomes in the areas of research focus and commercialization of that research more information.

NRC improved access to the results of Canadian federal government funded research by the Canadian innovation community and the public. NRC Research Press continued to innovate, implementing two new journal features: open access enablers such as author pay and delayed access; and article aggregations for specific NRC strategic research initiatives.

A client-journal web-based platform that provides enhanced e-publishing services was completed. The Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology and The Canadian Entomologist became the first two client journals to be published using this platform.

Commercialization Support, Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Management — NRC provided SME clients with customized value-added advice, information, referrals and financial assistance in approximately communities across the country. NRC 's Industry Technology Advisors ITA s worked with clients at all stages of the innovation-commercialization continuum, including: project development; access to technical assistance, financial, business, marketing or management advice; access to competitive technical information; patent searches; and access to local, regional, national or international linkages.

The ITA s also provided technical and business support, mentoring and referrals to government Institutes and industry programs and initiatives. This included working with clients and other organizations to facilitate the implementation of multi-sector, multi-partner initiatives that were relevant to SME s regionally and nationally.

A Central Business Support group was established to facilitate the flow of high-value technology from NRC while providing business-focused support to NRC executives, Institutes and programs. It championed the needs of industry and other clients to develop cohesive, consistent, business-friendly guidelines. It helped NRC manage its IP assets more strategically while facilitating horizontal business activities. The pilot was tested by NRC Aerospace together with three other key sectors.

Processes were put in place for identifying and managing key Aerospace accounts including the management of client feedback. The pilot was successful and work commenced to implement the system across NRC. The project focused on shortening the time to negotiate and approve NRC 's larger business agreements.

It featured a fast-track for processing the most urgent cases. This helped forge stronger links between corporate players in the contract approval process while improving service delivery. Feedback was positive. NRC learned that client satisfaction surveys are an important method of determining the effectiveness of service delivery models as well as the relevance of the content.

NRC has therefore begun to regularly schedule detailed client surveys, to formally keep abreast of feedback and ensure that client needs are met. The efficient functioning of the NRC governance structure ensures that NRC has, at all times, the tools necessary to make the best possible management decisions to pursue its value proposition: "To provide integrated science and technology solutions in areas of critical importance to Canada".

NRC completed plans for implementing the NRC Strategy that reflects changing internal and external factors, as well as the ongoing decisions and priorities of the federal government. These initiatives are focused on addressing the needs of key industrial sectors of the Canadian economy and enduring issues facing the nation including health and wellness, sustainable energy and the environment.

Integrated Solution to Planning, Risk and Performance Management — NRC implemented an integrated approach to planning, risk management and performance management that supports decision-making and enables strategy execution.

An integrated project team comprised of members from finance, human resources, information systems and corporate services accomplished the following:.

The new processes, performance measures and associated targets allow NRC to assess strategy implementation progress. Plans were made to further develop and refine the Business Intelligence information system and to train users across NRC in The results of this Audit Survey guided planning for the next year.

NRC began to integrate succession planning and management in the business planning process and to improve education efforts with Human Resources Professionals, senior managers and planners. For example, NRC collaborated with another government agency in the development of a Management program and it prepared to offer the training during using both e-learning and in-class training.

NRC conducted an extensive review of its recruitment programs, policies and practices by consulting with NRC management teams at all levels, human resources professionals and new hires. Communications — Through the development of NRC 's three-year communications outlook, it was determined that NRC required a more robust and strategic communications capability.

As such, the Communications and Corporate Relations Branch was created in A six-month communications transition plan that sets priorities for the Branch during the integration was developed and launched. These priorities included: stakeholder relations; rejuvenating NRC 's communications function; supporting and developing partnerships; implementing an NRC marketing strategy; supporting key NRC initiatives; and, making use of leading-edge communications approaches and technologies.

While some projects addressed urgent backlog maintenance and infrastructure renewal, several achieved energy reductions through electrical, mechanical, automation and building envelope replacement. The capital investment strategy was aligned with NRC 's priorities and, in order of importance, with health and safety, security, environment, energy efficiency and infrastructure renewal, respectively.

The Communications and Corporate Relations Branch was created as NRC realized that a strong, central communications capacity was needed if the organization was to be successful in taking a more concerted, strategic approach to communicating with its stakeholder communities.

Are you ready for some football?!? The event will begin at 1 pm and both parking and admission are free. The Wolfpack is coming off the campaign that boasted a school-record seven ACC wins. Head coach Dave Doeren returns 20 starters and the statistical leader on a per game basis in every statistical category from last year's successful season. Stadium parking lots will open at a. Obviously he hasn't had to take on any true contact throughout spring camp and was touch sacked a few times in the game, but he certainly looked like a confident quarterback under center in his first public performance since the season-ending injury last October.

Ben Finley also had some bright moments in the game, including a long pass to set up a touchdown run of his own from four yards out. That came after a slight injury scare after he was hit in the backfield on a blown up running play, but he still remained in the game -- even though he appeared to be limping slightly on the touchdown run.

In order for Leary to shine, he needed his veteran wideouts to have strong games on Saturday. Second-year freshman Porter Rooks caught the first touchdown on a yard dime from Leary and Thayer Thomas had the second on a nine-yard pass from the redshirt sophomore signal-caller. Thomas didn't just catch a touchdown, though, he also threw one of his patented trickeration dimes to birthday boy Devin Carter on a yard reception in the back of the end zone.

Carter led all receivers with five catches for 73 yards, picking up right where he left off after a strong sophomore campaign that saw him average more than 15 yards per catch last year. Hood opens with a 12 yard run. We get our first look at Drake Maye. He looks to go deep but throws behind Kobe Paysour about 30 yards downfield. Josh Henderson, who had 33 yards rushing on the drive, takes it in from six yards out for the game's first score.

Redshirt freshman Noah Burnette misses the extra point. Howell runs the same sideline pass to Downs as before and hits it this time for Heels inside the Howell to Antoine Green for 13 yards and a score. After a pair of Eugene Asante end the backup offense's drive, Howell hits Emery Simmons in heavy coverage for 44 yards. Back into the red zone. Howell goes for it on fourth and nine and Green picks up a pass interference. RB DJ Jones takes it in from one yard out to make it Drake Maye completes what would have been a yarder,dodging the rush and hitting Justin Olson on the sideline.

Refs rule Olson was out of bounds, however. Replays show that might have been the wrong call.






















The database becomes harder to realize as well. Therefore, there is always a need to go to the lookup table. Ad hoc query is a query that cannot be determined before the issuance of the query. It consists of an SQL that is constructed dynamically and is usually constructed by desktop friendly query tools. Hence it is hard to model the database without knowing what the customer desires. Careless use may lead to terrible design filled with major anomalies and data inconsistency.

Essentially more data must be provided to accomplish an operation than would be expected. Avoidance of modification anomalies is the motivation for the normalization process.

Anomalies are problems that can occur in poorly planned, un-normalised databases where all the data is stored in one table a flat-file database. Insertion Anomaly - The nature of a database may be such that it is not possible to add a required piece of data unless another piece of unavailable data is also added.

A relation will be in 2NF if it is in 1NF and all non-key attributes are fully functional dependent on the primary key. A relation will be in 3NF if it is in 2NF and no transition dependency exists. The insert command is used for inserting one or more rows into a database table with specified table column values. Deletion Anomaly. A deletion anomaly occurs when you delete a record that may contain attributes that shouldn't be deleted.

For instance, if we remove information about the last account at a branch, such as account A at the Downtown branch in Figure Anomaly detection refers to the task of finding observations that do not conform to the normal, expected behaviour.

These observations can be named as anomalies , outliers, novelty, exceptions, surprises in different application domains. Normalization is a systematic approach of decomposing tables to eliminate data redundancy repetition and undesirable characteristics like Insertion, Update and Deletion Anomalies. It is a multi-step process that puts data into tabular form, removing duplicated data from the relation tables. Second normal form 2NF is a normal form used in database normalization.

A relation is in the second normal form if it fulfills the following two requirements: It is in first normal form. It does not have any non-prime attribute that is functionally dependent on any proper subset of any candidate key of the relation. To prevent these problems, you can normalize the database structure.

Normalization generally entails splitting one database table into two simpler tables. Modification anomalies are so named because they are generated by the addition of, change to, or deletion of data from a database table.

A database DB , in the most general sense, is an organized collection of data. More specifically, a database is an electronic system that allows data to be easily accessed, manipulated and updated.

Now within the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties window you will click on the Start Menu tab and then click the button that says Customize. These will reset all options including the search feature. This will open a brand new window called Indexing Options. Then click on the File Types tab. If the file extension is not in the list, go ahead and add it at the bottom.

Then select it and choose whether you want to index just the properties or the properties and the file contents. If you know the file contains only text, make sure to select the second radio button. You can also click on Index Settings to modify some of the settings for the Search Indexer. Here you can choose to index encrypted files and other options like treating similar words with diacritics as different words.

If you are having problems with Windows search or something has become corrupted, you can rebuild the index by clicking the Rebuild button. Lastly, you can completely move the search index to another disk or partition. However, all of the different search settings for your Windows 7 computer could lead you to a situation where searching and indexing are taking a very long time, or are consuming a significant amount of resources on your machine. Luckily you can restore the default search options in Windows 7 to prevent these problematic activities and return to a state where the search feature is light and helpful, albeit less thorough.

Like many of the more helpful features involving Windows Explorer and folders on your Windows 7 computer, such as showing hidden files and folders in Windows 7 , the option that you are looking for is on the Folder and search options menu. Continue reading below to learn how you can find this menu, and where the specific button is that you need to click in order to restore your search defaults.

That includes Windows Store so you can do a search on the start menu and get the search results for Store from there, just by clicking on Store to see the search results just for the Store. If you have started a "metro" application and bring out the Charms menu that menu will be sort of customized for that particular application, meaning if you are in Windows Store and bring out the Charms menu the search button will take you straight to search in Store.

But the thing is that even though Store is the default you are just one click away from searching in any other source. To summarize the search feature in Windows 8 is really powerful and provides a unified way to search in any application and source. Reminded me that the old conext menu right click is gone in Metro - and out comes the charms "new context" menu. If you need a printer when printing from builtin metro PDF app - hit the new context charms menu as well. So - just start thinking of the charms menu as the context menu in Metro.

Thats the basic thing. Then it becomes inituitive and as with the old context menu - you can always go and explore what you can do. Only the new context "charms" context menu works cross web services so its not just "local" as the old "object-oriented" context menu If you display the Charms Bar and select Search, from within any Windows 8 App, the name of the app that will be searched is at the top of the Search bar.

There is no need to return to the Start Screen. It is true that users need a few tips to successfully use Windows 8, but once they get those tips, they can be much more productive using the charms than they ever could without them.

The breakthrough technology of universal search and sharing between apps does require a paradigm shift, but it is worth it. Someone who has been trained on Windows 8 for more than 5 minutes, and who already knows about the charms. There are 5 charms. Not that much to learn. If you like, I can list them, but I'm sure you can find the documentation somewhere ;. The charms don't serve ads, and are pretty unobtrusive. They only show up when you move your mouse to the upper right corner or the lower right corner of the screen, or if you press Windows-C, or if you have touch and you swipe in from the right.

Let me know if you see them come up any other way. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this issue then. The solution would be to just place a search link in the Store That link could either open the Charms bar automatically, or tell you "hey, in order to search the store it's easy That's the easy solution Going around and telling each user, "sorry A new user only has to be shown this procedure one time and the 'training' is complete.

If this was an optional component for the app developer, then it would be a can of worms for the user because some apps would not even include a search function. Very unconvincing speech. Not even a good salespitch. Who are you trying to fool? Tell it to a hundred million consumers. Train them. They are the audience for this new "paradigm". Forced change is painful.

Just ask my six year old, he throws a fit any time we replace something old with something new, and immediately proclaims just how terrible the new thing is before even trying it, sometimes before even seeing it.

Because it isn't what he is used to. It is different. Not because the change is bad. Is the new system completely intuitive? Is it easy to pick up? Yes, once you get over the fact that our old friend the Start button is no more.

The dashboard allows network managers to get an overview of all activity and then has a number of options to drill down through to reports on individual devices both live and over time.

The Checkmk package also offers bandwidth monitoring , which gives you indicators on where device and cable capacity is not enough to cope with demand.

The service tracks a list of metrics on network activity and a threshold for resource usage or system performance is added to each of these conditions. If that threshold level is passed, the Auvik service will generate an alert. The Auvik service can be expanded through the use of third-party tools for which the network monitor has integrations.

There are two plan levels for Auvik — Essential and Performance. The Performance plan is the higher plan and it offers traffic analysis functions and Syslog management on top of the network monitoring services that are available in the Essentials plan.
