Check authorization for every object request.

Concept map

  1. Object authorization: knowing a report ID is not permission

    Every request needs a check of the relationship between user, object and action. Hiding a control or using an unguessable ID does not independently replace authorization.

  2. Q&A · Decisions & explanations

    Explain the correct choice and why the alternatives fail.

  3. Safe practice & evidence check

    Record your own decision or output, then compare it with the expected result.

Follow the concept map, or go directly to practice if you know the prerequisites. Choose your own pace; there is no daily article quota.
