Why IDOR Is So Dangerous: Complete Breakdown for Bug Bounty & Developers

Описание: Unlock a complete, professional understanding of IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference) — one of the most common and dangerous vulnerabilities found during Bug Bounty Hunting, Web App Pentesting, and Secure Development.

In this detailed tutorial, we cover:

🔹 What is IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference)?
🔹 How attackers exploit IDOR using parameter tampering
🔹 Real-world impact: Data exposure, unauthorized access & account takeover
🔹 6 highly effective mitigation strategies to prevent IDOR
🔹 Secure ID implementation using UUIDs
🔹 Proper authentication & authorization techniques (JWT, OAuth, RBAC)
🔹 Best practices for secure backend development
🔹 Live code example (Python/Flask) showing how to implement authorization checks
🔹 Logging, monitoring & secure framework usage

Whether you’re a bug bounty beginner, cybersecurity student, or a developer building secure apps, this video will help you understand IDOR from the attacker’s perspective as well as the defender’s side.
