Manual Security Testing Checklist

Purpose: Verify IDOR vulnerability fixes and authorization controls in production/staging environment Date Created: 2025-12-29 Last Updated: 2026-01-09 Audit Reference: SECURITY_AUDIT_SUMMARY_2025-12-28.md, SECURITY_AUDIT_PRESENCE_2026-01-09.md

Latest Test Results (2026-03-23)

AccountInfoModal IDOR & Reports Arbitrary File Write — Fixes Applied

Date Tested: 2026-03-23 Tester: Claude Code Security Analysis Files Fixed:

  • app/Http/Livewire/AccountInfoModal.php
  • app/Http/Livewire/Reports.php

Vulnerabilities Found and Fixed:

HIGH — AccountInfoModal IDOR (Balance Disclosure)

  • loadAccounts() trusted session('activeProfileId') without ownership verification
  • Fix: Added ProfileAuthorizationHelper::authorize($profile) after profile resolution in loadAccounts()
  • Session manipulation to a victim's profile ID now results in HTTP 403

MEDIUM — Reports Arbitrary File Write

  • exportPdfWithChart() and exportPdfWithCharts() decoded base64 data and wrote it to storage/app/temp/ with no content validation or authentication check
  • Fix 1: Added abort_unless(Auth::check(), 403) at the top of both export methods
  • Fix 2: Added decodeChartImage() helper that validates magic bytes — rejects anything that is not a PNG (\x89PNG) or JPEG (\xFF\xD8\xFF); uses base64_decode(..., strict: true) to reject malformed input
  • Rejected payloads are logged with Log::warning including profile context

Results:

  • ✅ All IDOR protections from January 2026 remain intact
  • ✅ AccountInfoModal now enforces ProfileAuthorizationHelper on open
  • ✅ Reports chart upload now requires authentication and validates image magic bytes
  • ✅ ExportProfileData authorization confirmed correct (regression tests added as Category 13)

Status: APPROVED FOR PRODUCTION ✅

See prior report: SECURITY_AUDIT_PRESENCE_2026-01-09.md

Test Results (2026-01-09)

See full report: SECURITY_AUDIT_PRESENCE_2026-01-09.md

Prerequisites

  • Deploy all security fixes to staging/test environment
  • Have access to browser DevTools (Chrome/Firefox)
  • Have at least 3 test accounts created:
    • User A (regular user account)
    • User B (regular user account - victim)
    • Organization A (with User A as member)
    • Organization B (separate organization)
    • Bank A (optional - for bank testing)

Session Manipulation Methods

All tests requiring session manipulation can use either of these methods:

Method 1: Browser DevTools (Manual)

  • Open Browser DevTools → Application → Session Storage
  • Locate and modify activeProfileId and activeProfileType keys
  • Refresh the page to apply changes

Method 2: PHP Script (Automated)

php manipulate-session.php <profile_id> <type>

# Examples:
php manipulate-session.php 5196 user    # Switch to User B
php manipulate-session.php 77 org       # Switch to Organization 77
php manipulate-session.php 1 bank       # Switch to Bank A
php manipulate-session.php 5195 user    # Reset to User A

Important: Always refresh your browser after using the script method.

Production Deployment Checklist

Before deploying to production:

  • All manual tests above completed
  • Critical tests (marked CRITICAL) have 100% pass rate
  • Logging verified working correctly
  • Performance impact acceptable
  • Database backup created
  • Rollback plan documented
  • Monitoring alerts configured for authorization failures

Post-Deployment Monitoring

First 24 Hours:

  • Monitor logs for authorization failures spike
  • Check for legitimate user access issues
  • Monitor performance metrics
  • Review error rate in production

First Week:

  • Review authorization failure logs for patterns
  • Investigate any repeated failures (may indicate attack attempts)
  • Gather user feedback on any access issues
  • Fine-tune logging if needed

Command for Monitoring:

# Count authorization failures per hour
tail -f storage/logs/laravel.log | grep "Unauthorized.*access attempt" | wc -l

# Alert if > 10 failures per hour (adjust threshold)

Test Category 12: Reports — Arbitrary File Write

Added: 2026-03-23 Component: app/Http/Livewire/Reports.php — exportPdfWithChart(), exportPdfWithCharts() Vulnerability: Base64 chart image data is decoded and written to storage/app/temp/ with no MIME type or content validation.
