Spesifikasi keamanan

• Insecure HTTP methods

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This API uses insecure HTTP methods. An attacker can use these methods to probe server information or tamper with server data, for example, by using PUT to upload malicious files or DELETE to remove server resources.

  • Suggestion: Disable insecure HTTP methods such as PUT, DELETE, TRACE, and OPTIONS, based on your business needs.

• Weak JWT signature algorithm

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This API uses a weak JSON Web Token (JWT) signature algorithm.

  • Suggestion: Use a more secure signature algorithm such as RS256. Ensure the key is strong and that it is transmitted and stored securely.

• Parameter as URL

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: A request parameter for this API contains a URL value. This can create a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) risk.

  • Suggestion: Redesign the API to avoid using user-controlled URLs directly in parameters. Implement strict validation and filtering on parameter content.

Keamanan akun

• Password plaintext transmission

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This API transmits account passwords in plaintext. An attacker could intercept credentials during transmission through methods like sniffing, leading to account takeover.

  • Suggestion: Encrypt or hash password fields before transmission to prevent them from being intercepted.

• Weak password tolerance

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This logon API allows weak passwords. An attacker could exploit this to brute-force accounts.

  • Suggestion: Enforce a strong password policy. A strong password is at least 8 characters long and includes characters from at least three of the following categories: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Notify users with existing weak passwords to change them promptly.

• Weak password vulnerability in internal application

  • Risk level: High

  • Risk description: The logon API of this internal application allows weak passwords. An attacker could exploit this to brute-force accounts.

  • Suggestion: Enforce a strong password policy. A strong password is at least 8 characters long and includes characters from at least three of the following categories: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Notify users with existing weak passwords to change them promptly.

• Presence of default passwords

  • Risk level: Medium

  • Risk description: This application may have a default password. An attacker could use the default password to take over accounts where the password has not been changed.

  • Suggestion: For applications with default passwords, force a password change on the first logon. For existing accounts with default passwords, notify users to change them immediately.

• Return of plaintext password

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This API's response contains a plaintext password. An attacker could intercept user credentials during transmission, leading to account takeover.

  • Suggestion: Redesign the API to avoid returning plaintext passwords in responses.

  • Suggestion: Redesign the API to avoid storing sensitive credentials in cookies.

• Unrestricted logon

  • Risk level: Medium

  • Risk description: This logon API does not have a CAPTCHA or similar verification mechanism. An attacker could exploit this to perform unlimited brute-force attacks on passwords.

  • Suggestion: Add a verification mechanism, such as a CAPTCHA, especially after multiple failed logon attempts, to prevent brute-force attacks.

• Unreasonable logon failure prompt

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This API's logon failure prompt reveals whether a username exists. An attacker can use this information to enumerate valid accounts for further attacks.

  • Suggestion: When a logon fails, return a generic message like "Incorrect username or password" instead of revealing whether the username is valid.

• URL-based account password transmission

  • Risk level: Medium

  • Risk description: This API transmits account passwords in the URL. If the URL is compromised, the credentials are leaked. URLs are often recorded in server logs, referer headers, and browser history.

  • Suggestion: Use the POST method to transmit credential data in the request body.

Kontrol akses

• Internal application accessible from the Internet

  • Risk level: Low

  • Risk description: This API belongs to an internal application and is accessible from the Internet without access restrictions. This could allow attackers to exploit or attack the internal application.

• AccessKey pair information leak

  • Risk level: High

  • Risk description: The response from this API contains an AccessKey ID and an AccessKey Secret, which could be exploited by an attacker.

  • Suggestion: Redesign the API to avoid returning AccessKey pair information. In addition, immediately disable or delete the leaked AccessKey pairs.

• Unauthorized access to obtain STS token

  • Risk level: Medium

  • Risk description: The API security risk detection model has identified that this API can be accessed without authentication, and the response contains a cloud platform STS token (temporary security credential). An attacker can use this API to directly obtain temporary credentials with cloud resource operation permissions, which may lead to unauthorized cloud service calls, sensitive data theft, compute resource abuse, malicious operations, and even full account takeover, large-scale business data exfiltration, and significant financial losses.

  • Suggestion: Immediately implement strict identity authentication and access control mechanisms for this API to ensure that only authorized entities can call STS-related APIs in trusted environments, preventing unauthorized or escalated access. Additionally, thoroughly review the permission scope and usage records of any leaked STS tokens, promptly revoke the temporary credentials, and strengthen the security of associated IAM role policies. Ensure that STS APIs are never exposed externally, and never embed or call such high-risk APIs in frontend code, client applications, or public repositories.

Proteksi data

  • Suggestion: Redesign the API to prevent internal network information from being leaked in responses.

• URL-based sensitive data transmission

  • Risk level: Medium

  • Risk description: This API transmits high-sensitivity data in the URL. If the URL is compromised, a sensitive data leak may occur. URLs are often recorded in server logs, referer headers, and browser history.

  • Suggestion: Use the POST method and transmit sensitive data in the request body.

• OpenAPI documentation leak

  • Risk level: Medium

  • Risk description: The API security risk detection model has identified that this API exposes interface definition documents such as OpenAPI or Swagger. Attackers can use these documents to obtain business API paths, parameter structures, and business details, enabling them to precisely construct requests for batch probing, data theft, business logic attacks, and even discover sensitive interfaces and potential unauthorized operations. In severe cases, this can lead to system sensitive data leaks or unauthorized operations.

  • Suggestion: Strictly limit external access permissions for interface definition documents based on your actual business needs. Disable or encrypt open API document interfaces in production environments to prevent unauthorized access. If access is necessary, restrict it to trusted accounts or internal network calls only. Additionally, regularly review API document exposure policies to avoid carrying sensitive fields and business descriptions. Strengthen security controls through identity authentication, IP whitelists, and API gateways to prevent external attackers from obtaining interface metadata.

• Large model API key leak

  • Risk level: High

  • Risk description: The API security risk detection model has identified that this API can be accessed without authentication and the response contains an API key for a large model service. An attacker can use this API to steal the large model API key, which may lead to unauthorized data access, real-time quota consumption, sensitive information theft, malicious content generation, business data exfiltration, and account abuse.

  • Suggestion: Implement strict and complete identity authentication mechanisms to prevent unauthorized or escalated access to the API. Additionally, immediately review the actual usage of the API key, promptly rotate the key, and ensure that API keys are only used in secure, controlled environments. Never expose API keys directly in frontend code or public repositories.
