QID 580523: Defined Enum Field Values Mismatch Schema

In this scenario fields of string type with enum values defined are tested. This test is skipped for all enum fields where values are not defined. All values in the array are used in testing iteratively. The string field is replaced by the defined enum values one at a time and sent to the server. The expectation is that APIs will treat the requests as happy path and the response would match the schema definition for valid response. The response from server for requests with current value being tested does not match the schema definition for valid request.
Based on the response using requests with valid values it is determined that the response to some valid enum values does not match schema definition for field being tested.

Enforcing handling all the defined enum values in swagger file as happy path will help provide clarity to the API users and avoid abuse of the API by hackers. API users might be confused with the response mismatch to valid values.

CVSS V3 rated as High - 7.3 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as High - 7.5 severity.
