QID 570085: Ambiguous Paths

Paths are considered ambiguous if we get an identical path when we replace the curly braces and the string in it with a constant. Analysis of your swagger file resulted in detection of ambiguity. For example: The following paths are considered identical and invalid: /pets/{petId}
/pets/{name}
The following may lead to ambiguous resolution: /{entity}/me
/books/{id}

Path specified in the swagger specification must be unique to avoid ambiguity. When the uniqueness is missing there is no clarity to API users and could result in requests making to the wrong end point.

CVSS V3 rated as Medium - 5.3 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as Medium - 3.6 severity.

Solution

Avoid ambiguous paths by ensuring the uniqueness of all the end points.
