This vulnerability can exist and your web application or anyone else web application by doing simple step

I have been trying to find vulnerabilities since long time and I have been able to identify data breaches while searching in Apis and other stuff.

When it comes to the unidentifying object so one of the things you should keep in mind that UUID is very important Sometime you can mix with the Apis and it will give you excess of editing without any fancy tool.

This small example will help you to understand.

• Check the available endpoints in web application if you were able to find. Most of the time people say that for finding endpoints it's very difficult and use big data set but I recommend using developer tools
• that will make process much easy

• chack api url and there is posiabilty that you might abe able to find something like this

Small example that will help you to understand how the unidentifying object and broken authentication work

curl -i -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username":"newadmin","email":"newadmin@test.com","password":"Test123!","role":"admin"}' \
  https://www.website.com/api/users

In case of this thing we need to understand one that it has one issue The user has implement all the security on front end but not on the back end side.

adming access

After they have patched this thing we was able to find another thing that if you visit a website that is under development so there will be a certain endpoints.

Like —

Example  (high-level)

Require role: "admin" for all GET /api/users, DELETE /api/users/:id, PUT /api/users/:id.

Strip dangerous fields (role) from input unless caller is admin.

Return 403 Forbidden for unauthorized access attempts.

If I were auditing this, I’d write the report like this:

• GET /api/users → IDOR / Unauthorized Enumeration.
• DELETE /api/users/:id → Privilege Escalation / Broken Access Control.
• PUT /api/users/:id → Potential Role Escalation.
• POST /api/users → Possible Privilege Injection.

curl -i -X DELETE \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
