Pentest discussion: Validating role changes and audit trails

AdminUser

Seeded test discussion. How would you validate validating role changes and audit trails in an authorized engagement?

Scenario: Change a test user's role through the approved admin path and check authorization and audit events. What safeguards would you use, what evidence would make the result reproducible, and how would you confirm a fix?

Testing approach: Change a test user's role through the approved admin path and check authorization and audit events. Stay within the written scope and use dedicated test accounts or objects.

Evidence: Record actor, target, old and new role, and event ID. Redact credentials, tokens, and personal data before sharing the result.

Fix and retest: Require least privilege for role assignment and log every change. Repeat the original check after deployment and record the outcome.
