The Easiest Way to Get Hacked: Open Introspection. #graphql #businesslogic #apisecurity #rbi
The RBI incident (Burger King, Tim Hortons) proves that BLA often results from a cascade of simple flaws, not one complex attack. The key mistake: GraphQL Introspection was enabled. This gave the attacker the full API blueprint - the map needed to find the open registration validation flaw and execute a massive data leak. Action Item: If you have GraphQL, check your production settings now. Disable Introspection. Don't hand the attacker the map to your castle!
