audit-account-type-leak

To detect cross-user data leaks caused by PostgreSQL RLS OR-style policies, you can scan user profiles and dialogs to identify when one user's data appears in another user's view due to overly permissive access rules.

A cross-account-type data leak is a database security issue where data belonging to one account type appears in another account type's view, often caused by misconfigured Row Level Security policies.

Yes, you need PostgreSQL to analyze RLS policies for data access pattern leaks, as the detection process specifically requires evaluating PostgreSQL Row Level Security rules and user access patterns.

To investigate why a user sees unexpected entries in their own profile view, run an audit to detect cross-user data leaks by analyzing your RLS OR-style policies and data access patterns.

You should run an audit for cross-type and cross-user data leaks during phase 5 or later of software development to prevent security and data integrity issues before deployment.

The best way to prevent data leaks across different account types and users is to actively analyze RLS policies and data access patterns to identify and resolve cross-type and cross-user visibility issues.
