Business Logic Security Review for Product Teams
Business logic risk appears when code permits the wrong subject, state, amount, scope, or sequence. These issues often sit outside simple syntax patterns because they depend on how the product is meant to operate.
Review targets
A mature business logic review follows the sensitive objects in the product.
- Orders, invoices, refunds, balances, credits, subscriptions, and settlements
- Users, roles, tenants, organizations, projects, devices, and assets
- Approval states, paid states, fulfillment states, ownership transfer, and administrative actions
- Webhooks, callbacks, queues, jobs, cron tasks, and async compensation paths
Control questions
The review asks product-specific control questions.
- Is ownership checked at the operation boundary?
- Is the amount calculated by the server and bound to the settled object?
- Is idempotency enforced where callbacks or retries can arrive more than once?
- Can a user jump directly to a later state?
- Can an automation scope expand beyond the owner's resources?
Delivery
CodeHunter records these questions as reviewable findings. Personal exports the audit report. Team routes confirmed risk into owner review, tasking, verification, and release readiness.
