LAB 345 – Defending Go Applications Against Incorrect Authorization

Course Overview

Incorrect Authorization vulnerabilities pose a significant risk by allowing attackers to gain unauthorized access due to missing or improperly implemented authorization controls. This Skill Lab offers hands-on experience identifying and mitigating such vulnerabilities within Go applications. By adding appropriate authorization checks to sensitive operations, developers can strengthen their applications against potential exploitation. The virtual environment provides a vulnerable application and its complete source code, facilitating practical training to address Incorrect Authorization concerns effectively.

After completing this lab, learners will understand how to defend Go applications against Incorrect Authorization vulnerabilities by implementing appropriate authorization controls and performing rigorous authorization checks in all sensitive operations.
