Object scope: Is it private or public? Start by looking at what objects should be publicly readable versus the ones that should not be. For instance, in an online store, product details and reviews associated with each product may be readable by the general public using the following endpoints: GET /api/products/ GET /api/reviews/ However, the buyer’s private profile information should not be: GET /api/users//creditcard/details GET /api/users//mailingaddress/details If the API structure looks something like the above, then you can assume that the user-related information should only be visible to that user. That is one of the best places to start testing for high-impact IDORs. Pro tip: Don’t forget to try create/update/delete operations on objects that are publicly readable but shouldn’t be writable. Can you PUT to /api/products and change a price?
