- Prevalence: उच्च बार-बार शोषित
- Impact: उच्च 3 उच्च गंभीरता वाले नियम
- Prevention: प्रलेखित 3 फिक्स उदाहरण

**OWASP:** Broken Access Control (A01:2021-Broken Access Control) - #1

## Description

Assuming a user with a given identity, authorization is the process of determining whether that user can access a given resource. When authorization checks are completely missing, any authenticated user can access protected resources.

### Go

Require human approval for sensitive operations and limit agent loop iterations

## Warning Signs

- [HIGH] Excessive LLM agency detected: ...
- [HIGH] LLM implementations with excessive autonomy allowing destructive operations without human approval

## Consequences

- एप्लिकेशन डेटा पढ़ना
- एप्लिकेशन डेटा संशोधित करना
- विशेषाधिकार प्राप्त करना

## Mitigations

- सभी संरक्षित संसाधनों के लिए प्राधिकरण जाँचें लागू करें
- केंद्रीकृत प्राधिकरण तंत्र का उपयोग करें
- deny by default के सिद्धांत का पालन करें

## Detection

- Total rules: 3
- Languages: go, javascript, typescript, python

## Rules by Language

### Go (1 rules)

- **LLM Excessive Agency** [HIGH]: Detects LLM implementations with excessive autonomy allowing destructive operations without human approval.
  - Remediation: Require human approval for sensitive operations and add iteration limits.

```go
if sensitiveOperations[toolName] {
    queueForApproval(toolCall)
}
```

### Javascript (1 rules)

- **LLM Excessive Agency** [HIGH]: Detects LLM implementations with excessive autonomy that can lead to unintended
consequences. OWASP LLM08 - Excessive Agency.

Excessive agency occurs when LLMs are granted:
- Ability to perform destructive operations without confirmation
- Auto-execution of LLM-generated code or commands
- Direct database modifications without approval
- Financial transactions without human oversight
- Email/communication sending without review

This rule detects:
- Auto-execution of tool calls without human ap
  - Remediation: Require human approval for sensitive operations and set iteration limits on agent loops.

```javascript
if (SENSITIVE_OPERATIONS.has(toolName)) {
  await queueForApproval(toolCall);
} else {
  await executeSafeToolCall(toolCall);
}
```

### Python (1 rules)

- **LLM Excessive Agency** [HIGH]: Detects LLM implementations with excessive autonomy that can lead to unintended
consequences. OWASP LLM08 - Excessive Agency.

Excessive agency occurs when LLMs are granted:
- Ability to perform destructive operations without confirmation
- Auto-execution of LLM-generated code or commands
- Direct database modifications without approval
- Financial transactions without human oversight
  - Remediation: Require human approval for sensitive operations and set iteration limits.

```python

MAX_ITERATIONS = 10

for tool_call in response.choices[0].message.tool_calls:
    if tool_call.function.name in SENSITIVE_OPERATIONS:
        await queue_for_approval(tool_call)
    else:
        await execute_safe_tool_call(tool_call)
