# Missing Authentication for Critical Function (CWE-306)

The product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources.

**Stack:** Python

- Prevalence: 高 频繁被利用
- Impact: 高 6 条严重级别为高的规则
- Prevention: 已记录 6 个修复示例

**OWASP:** Identification and Authentication Failures (A07:2021-Identification and Authentication Failures) - #7

## Description

As data traverses trust boundaries, the data should be validated before being processed. When authentication is not applied to critical functions, attackers can invoke these functions without proving their identity.

## Prevention

### Python

Add @login_required or @permission_required decorator to all protected views

Add authentication using FastAPI Depends() dependency injection

## Warning Signs

- [HIGH] View handles sensitive operations without authentication decorator
- [HIGH] Django views that should require authentication but lack
@login_required, @permission_required, or o
- [HIGH] Endpoint performs sensitive operations without Depends(get_current_user) or similar auth
- [HIGH] FastAPI endpoints that perform sensitive operations without
authentication via Depends() dependency 

## Consequences

- 获取权限
- 读取应用程序数据
- 修改应用程序数据
- 执行未授权代码

## Mitigations

- 将软件划分为具有不同信任级别的组件
- 识别所有具有安全关键功能的区域,并对这些区域全部要求身份验证
- 确保实施了适当的访问控制

## Detection

## Rules by Language

### Python (2 rules)

- **Django View Missing Authentication** [HIGH]: Detects Django views that should require authentication but lack
@login_required, @permission_required, or other authentication decorators.
  - Remediation: Add authentication:

```python
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required, permission_required

@login_required
def protected_view(request):
    # Only authenticated users can access
    pass

@permission_required('app.change_model')
def admin_view(request):
    # Only users with permission can access
    pass
```
- **FastAPI Endpoint Missing Authentication** [HIGH]: Detects FastAPI endpoints that perform sensitive operations without
authentication via Depends() dependency injection.
  - Remediation: Add authentication via dependency injection:

```python
from fastapi import Depends, FastAPI
from fastapi.security import OAuth2PasswordBearer

oauth2_scheme = OAuth2PasswordBearer(tokenUrl="token")

async def get_current_user(token: str = Depends(oauth2_scheme)):
    # Verify token and return user
    return user

@app.delete("/users/{user_id}")
async def delete_user(
    user_id: int,
    current_user: User = Depends(get_current_user)  # Required auth
):
    # Only authenticated users can delete
    pass
```
