Explanation
Error and exception handling is a coding-level security concern. When developers fail to properly handle errors, applications may leak sensitive information (stack traces, internal paths, database details) or enter unexpected states that can be exploited. This is a problem introduced during software development. Patch management is an operational/administrative process. Application hardening is a deployment/configuration activity. Application fuzzing is a testing technique used to find bugs, not a coding problem itself.
