CWE-482 Comparing instead of Assigning

The code uses an operator for comparison when the intention was to perform an assignment.

• Availability, Integrity: Unexpected State — The assignment will not take place, which should cause obvious program execution problems.

• [Testing] Many IDEs and static analysis products will detect this problem.

• Automated Static Analysis: Automated static analysis, commonly referred to as Static Application Security Testing (SAST), can find some instances of this weakness by analyzing source code (or binary/compiled code) without having to execute it. Typically, this is done by building a model of data flow and control flow, then searching for potentially-vulnerable patterns that connect "sources" (origins of input) with "sinks" (destinations where the data interacts with external components, a lower layer such as the OS, etc.) • Automated Static Analysis - Source Code: An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or linter can report or highlight this weakness.
