CWE-650: Trusting HTTP Permission Methods on the Server Side

low-risk

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.

Abstraction: Variant

Common Consequences

Access Control Gain Privileges or Assume Identity
Integrity Modify Application Data
Confidentiality Read Application Data
