# Authentic integration event applied to the wrong tenant or object

A valid provider event is misbound to a local tenant, installation, mode or resource the event is not authorized to modify.

**Candidate CWE:** [CWE-863](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/863.html)

## Test hypothesis

Use two controlled provider accounts/installations and local tenants. Deliver valid sandbox events through their normal route and compare trusted account mapping with any user-controlled routing metadata. Inspect a single reversible effect on the other controlled tenant.

## Evidence required

Signature verification result, authenticated provider identity, local mapping, attacker-controlled input, before/after state, and why the event lacks authority for the affected object. A valid signature alone is not the ownership check.

## Rule out false positives

An administrator deliberately sharing one integration across tenants, an intended account-wide event, or a mock event whose meaningful fields the real attacker cannot control is not a demonstrated cross-tenant flaw.

## Report checklist

- [ ] Capture the affected version, configuration, identities, and object ownership.
- [ ] Preserve a valid baseline and a negative control.
- [ ] Reproduce the forbidden data access, action, or state change on controlled fixtures.
- [ ] Explain the intended security rule and why the observed behavior violates it.
- [ ] State prerequisites, uncertainty, cleanup, and the smallest demonstrated impact.

## Conditional ATT&CK mapping

No direct ATT&CK mapping selected. Record the weakness and demonstrated impact without forcing an adversary-behavior classification. See the [mapping guide](https://bug-bounty-field-manual.kmahshooq.chatgpt.site/attack.html).
