Bug Bounty tip 🧵
Don't just swap IDs — wrap them.
❌ {"Account": 1111}
✅ {"Account": {"Account": 3333}}
Auth validates the outer key.
Business logic executes the inner one.
Scanners miss it. You won't.

Day 11 — API1: Broken Object Level Auth (BOLA) 🛡️
Today I practiced BOLA (IDOR) on crAPI — found endpoints where changing an ID returned other users’ data. Lesson: always check object-level access controls.
