The Red Agent POV: Exploiting Broken Object-Level Authorization in an Airline GraphQL API
A red team exercise demonstrated how broken object-level authorization in a GraphQL API allowed unauthorized access to an airline's booking database. The attacker bypassed backend resolvers to expose sensitive data within fifteen minutes.
Why it matters: Airlines and any organization using GraphQL APIs need to audit object-level authorization controls immediately, as this vulnerability exposes customer booking information and personal data to unauthorized access.
