Autorize

Summary: Autorize is a Burp Suite extension, authored by Barak Tawily of AppSec Labs and listed at version 1.9.4 with a last update of 24 February 2026, that detects authorization and authentication enforcement gaps in web applications. It monitors traffic from a high-privileged user, replays those requests with low-privileged or unauthenticated credentials, and analyzes the responses to identify authorization bypasses and authentication weaknesses.

What's compelling: The tool exists because access control flaws are found by replaying a privileged user's own requests as a low-privileged or anonymous one - the same test an attacker runs after landing a single valid account. PortSwigger states the extension is written by a third party and carries no warranty of quality or usefulness, so the finding still rests on how your team reads the responses.
