Broken access control testing works by exercising web application endpoints with different authentication contexts, such as varied Bearer tokens. It replays role-based requests to detect authorization mismatches, IDOR flaws, and privilege escalation across API and UI surfaces.

Yes, you can automate RBAC and multi-tenant isolation checks by providing configurable endpoint lists and Bearer tokens. The tool systematically validates tenant isolation and function-level authorization across different user roles, generating a JSON assessment report.

The best way to detect vertical and horizontal privilege escalation in APIs is through role-based request replay and method-override checks. By swapping authentication contexts across enumerated endpoints, you can identify unauthorized access to administrative functions or other users' data.

Yes, this broken access control testing method supports mass-assignment validation. It systematically manipulates request payloads across varied authentication contexts to verify if unauthorized users can modify restricted object properties through API endpoints.

You do not need Burp Suite or ffuf to perform function-level authorization checks. The testing relies on Python requests and urllib3 to exercise endpoints with provided Bearer tokens, independently mapping endpoints and generating a JSON assessment report.
