Where does one go to learn how to not cause this one day?


OWASP Top 10 list. OWASP's website is kind of a mess in my opinion, but there are numerous external write-ups about the top vulnerability types.

Also this github repo maintained by OWASP seems pretty exhaustive. The cheatsheets directory has a lot of different vulnerability classes.

This "Insecure Direct Object Reference" was recently combined into the "Broken Access Control" category with a few others.


Thanks!
