CWE-650
Trusting HTTP Permission Methods on the Server Side
The server contains a protection mechanism that assumes that any URI that is accessed using HTTP GET will not cause a state change to the associated resource. This might allow attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and conduct resource modification and deletion attacks, since some applications allow GET to modify state.
Mitigation
Phase: System Configuration
Description:
- Configure ACLs on the server side to ensure that proper level of access control is defined for each accessible resource representation.
