Incomplete Blacklist
From OWASP
This is a Vulnerability. To view all vulnerabilities, please see the Vulnerability Category page.
Description
NOTE: This probably should be made into a principle - Don't use blacklist. New attacks are being developed everyday, which makes it difficult or nearly impossible in some cases to make a complete blacklist. Instead positive whitelist, which specifies what is allowed, should be used.
