Notes

Relationship

A number of vulnerabilities are specifically related to problems in creating, managing, or removing alternate channels and alternate paths. Some of these can overlap virtual file problems. They are commonly used in "bypass" attacks, such as those that exploit authentication errors.

Maintenance

This category is being considered for deprecation. It is not clear whether communication channels are related closely enough to access paths. In addition, the "path" term is probably assumed by many readers to be associated with file paths, as opposed to the original meaning as intended in PLOVER.

Research Gap

Most of these issues are probably under-studied. Only a handful of public reports exist.
