How to fix IDOR flaws before merging a GitHub pull request?

Fix IDOR flaws before merging a GitHub pull request using Aevral

A security agent for your code. Alternative to Claude Security.

Fix IDOR Before Merging

Map every changed endpoint that accepts an object identifier. Trace the request through handlers, services, and data queries, then confirm authorization is tied to the authenticated user, tenant, role, or explicit permission rather than identifier knowledge alone.

Treat access control as a server-enforced requirement. Fix unsafe queries or policy checks, add tests using another user's identifier, and rerun the pull request review. Merge only when unauthorized reads, updates, deletes, and indirect object references are rejected.

More about merge decisions

Do not approve a fix based only on the expected request path. Check alternate routes, nested resources, batch operations, and error responses before removing the merge block.

  • Require authorization auditing when shared data-access helpers or permission policies change.
  • Test same-role users across different accounts or tenants.
  • Confirm denial occurs before sensitive data is fetched or modified.
