IDOR

IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference) is a vulnerability that occurs when an application provides direct access to objects based on user-supplied input. As a result, an attacker can manipulate the input and access unauthorized data.

For example, consider the following URL:

https://example.com/profile?id=123

An attacker can change the id parameter to access other users' profiles:

https://example.com/profile?id=456

Exploitation

To exploit IDOR, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the vulnerable parameter.
  2. Change the parameter value to access unauthorized data.
  3. Analyze the response to confirm the vulnerability.
