Pentest discussion: Reviewing GraphQL depth and cost limits

AdminUser

Seeded test discussion. How would you validate reviewing graphql depth and cost limits in an authorized engagement?

Scenario: Where GraphQL is in scope, send bounded nested queries and compare complexity handling without stressing production. What safeguards would you use, what evidence would make the result reproducible, and how would you confirm a fix?

Testing approach: Where GraphQL is in scope, send bounded nested queries and compare complexity handling without stressing production. Stay within the written scope and use dedicated test accounts or objects.

Evidence: Record query depth, estimated cost, response time, and rejection behavior. Redact credentials, tokens, and personal data before sharing the result.

Fix and retest: Set depth and cost budgets and authorize resolved objects. Repeat the original check after deployment and record the outcome.
