Hands-on IDOR Lab in Node.js Teaches Access Control
A developer created an open-source Node.js lab to demonstrate Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerabilities. The lab lets users compare vulnerable and secure endpoints that either allow or block unauthorized document access. It highlights the difference between authentication and authorization in API security.

The lab is a practical teaching tool, but real-world IDOR prevention requires consistent authorization checks across all endpoints.
