Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.

You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.

What is this endpoint?

api/v1/tokens

API Token Management Endpoint

What an attacker could do

An exposed token-management endpoint can let an attacker mint, list, or revoke API tokens, achieving persistent authenticated access or denying service by revoking legitimate keys.

How to defend it

Require strong authentication and per-action authorization on token endpoints, rate-limit them, and audit token creation and revocation events.
