Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves a specific API endpoint that allows authenticated users to access other users' profiles by changing the user ID number in the API request. Essentially, once logged in, a user can manipulate the ID parameter to view or potentially interact with data belonging to other users without proper authorization.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive user information, compromising confidentiality and privacy. Since users can pivot to other profiles, it may result in data breaches, exposure of personal or confidential data, and potential misuse of that information. This can damage trust, lead to identity theft, or other malicious activities.
