📰 Dev.to · Charles Kern
Learn how IDOR bugs can compromise API security and how to prevent them by implementing proper ownership checks
Action Steps
- Implement ownership checks in API routes to prevent IDOR bugs
- Use authentication middleware that includes ownership verification
- Test API endpoints for IDOR vulnerabilities using tools like Burp Suite or ZAP
- Configure API gateways to restrict access based on user ownership
- Apply least privilege principle to minimize damage from potential IDOR bugs
