The Hunt: nine simulated Base44 security leaks and a bonus

LEVEL 6 / 100/9

Core hunt 1–6 · Level-up pack 7–9 · ★ Bonus

Level 6A general security lesson, not from Base44's docs

A guessable id is not a lock

The scenario

PetPals sends customers a “private” link to their booking that relies on the record id being secret.

But the ids are consecutive, so a neighbour's id is easy to find.

Guided hint · Beginner mode

Look at the link itself. If the number at the end simply counts up (…/1014, …/1015), what actually stops a stranger changing it to their neighbour's number?

Leak Hunt is a free, simulated security guide for Base44 builders. Everything here is fake.
