Problem Statement
Explain a safe, step-by-step API hacking workflow you would follow on a new target.
Explanation
First, map the surface. List hosts, versions, and documented endpoints. Capture requests from a proxy and save example calls. Keep this passive and read only at the start.
Next, probe with low risk checks: auth required, role rules, and object access. Try simple ID swaps to check for B O L A. Then review responses for extra fields and attempt property fuzzing to check for B O P L A or mass assignment. Finish with rate limit tests and error handling checks. Always stay within scope and use a test account.
