testing-mobile-api-authentication
Tests authentication and authorization mechanisms in mobile application APIs to identify broken authentication, insecure token management, session fixation, privilege escalation, and IDOR vulnerabilities. Use when performing API security assessments against mobile app backends, testing JWT implementations, evaluating OAuth flows, or assessing session management. Activates for requests involving mobile API auth testing, token security assessment, OAuth mobile flow testing, or API authorization bypass.

# Testing Mobile API Authentication
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- Assessing mobile app backend API authentication during penetration tests
- Testing JWT token implementation for common vulnerabilities (none algorithm, weak signing)
- Evaluating OAuth 2.0 / OIDC flows in mobile applications for redirect, PKCE, and scope issues
- Testing for broken object-level authorization (BOLA/IDOR) in API endpoints
**Do not use** this skill against production APIs without explicit authorization and rate-limiting awareness.
## Prerequisites
- Burp Suite or mitmproxy configured as mobile device proxy
