Source Code File with Excessive Number of Lines of Code. [Complexity-Issues, Improper-Adherence-To-Coding-Standards]
Required inputs: IR
This issue makes it more difficult to understand and/or maintain the product, which indirectly affects security by making it more difficult or time-consuming to find and/or fix vulnerabilities. It also might make it easier to introduce vulnerabilities.
While the interpretation of "too many lines of code" may vary for each product or developer, CISQ recommends a default threshold value of 1000.
