# API Reference: Broken Function Level Authorization (BFLA)
|
|
|
|
## OWASP API5:2023 — Broken Function Level Authorization
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
API endpoints expose functions that should be restricted to specific roles.
|
|
Low-privileged users can invoke admin-level functionality.
|
|
|
|
### Common Patterns
|
|
| Pattern | Example |
|
|
|---------|---------|
|
|
| Guessable admin paths | `/api/admin/users` |
|
|
| Method switching | POST allowed but PUT bypasses auth |
|
|
| Role parameter manipulation | `{"role": "admin"}` in request |
|
|
| Vertical privilege escalation | User accessing admin endpoints |
|
|
|
|
## Testing Methodology
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Discover Endpoints
|
|
```bash
|
|
# From OpenAPI spec
|
|
curl https://api.target.com/swagger.json | jq '.paths | keys'
|
|
|
|
# From JavaScript source
|
|
grep -oP '["'"'"']/api/[^"'"'"']+' app.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 2: Test with Low-Priv Token
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <low_priv_token>" \
|
|
https://api.target.com/api/admin/users
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Test HTTP Method Switching
|
|
```bash
|
|
# If GET returns 403, try POST/PUT/DELETE
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Authorization: Bearer <low_priv_token>" \
|
|
https://api.target.com/api/admin/users/1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Python requests Library
|
|
|
|
### Request with Token
|
|
```python
|
|
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"}
|
|
resp = requests.get(url, headers=headers, timeout=10, verify=False)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Method Switching
|
|
```python
|
|
for method in ["GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE", "PATCH"]:
|
|
resp = requests.request(method, url, headers=headers, timeout=10)
|
|
if resp.status_code < 400:
|
|
print(f"Accessible via {method}: {resp.status_code}")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Common Admin Endpoints to Test
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/admin
|
|
/api/admin
|
|
/api/v1/admin/users
|
|
/api/internal
|
|
/manage
|
|
/api/config
|
|
/api/debug
|
|
/api/users/all
|
|
/api/system/settings
|
|
/graphql (with admin mutations)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Burp Suite — Authorization Testing
|
|
|
|
### Autorize Extension
|
|
1. Install Autorize from BApp Store
|
|
2. Set low-privilege cookie/token
|
|
3. Browse application as admin
|
|
4. Autorize replays requests with low-priv token
|
|
5. Compare responses for authorization bypass
|
|
|
|
## Response Analysis
|
|
|
|
| Indicator | Meaning |
|
|
|-----------|---------|
|
|
| 200 with data | Full access (vulnerability) |
|
|
| 200 empty body | Possible partial bypass |
|
|
| 403 Forbidden | Properly restricted |
|
|
| 401 Unauthorized | Auth required |
|
|
| 405 Method Not Allowed | Method restricted |
|
