The underlying weakness: Direct Request

The web application does not adequately enforce appropriate authorization on all restricted URLs, scripts, or files.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Apply appropriate access control authorizations for each access to all restricted URLs, scripts or files.
  • Consider using MVC based frameworks such as Struts.
