Business Logic Vulnerability
A class of vulnerability that exploits design flaws in a program's business logic, permission checks or state management. It does not depend on a specific memory layout and can bypass memory mitigation mechanisms.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Business logic vulnerabilities do not stem from erroneous code at the syntax level but from inconsistencies between the code implementation and business expectations.
Business logic vulnerabilities can account for up to 50% of vulnerabilities reported on SRC platforms.
Business logic vulnerabilities cannot be identified by general-purpose security devices such as WAFs, because WAFs rely on matching known attack signatures, while the requests involved in logic vulnerabilities are completely legitimate at the syntactic level.
With the widespread adoption of ORM frameworks and the promotion of parameterized queries, pure SQL injection points are becoming increasingly rare, making logic vulnerabilities relatively more opportunistic.
The most fatal vulnerabilities are often not vulnerabilities in underlying components (such as Nginx or the operating system), but business logic vulnerabilities embedded by developers when writing business code.
The root cause of business logic vulnerabilities is that developers focus only on functional implementation and their own preferences, without thinking from an attacker's perspective about the possibility of exploitation.
