The endpoint uses an email parameter as a direct reference to user subscriptions without verifying object ownership. While authentication is required, there is no authorization check to verify if the authenticated user owns the referenced subscription.\n\nVulnerable code in `/api/subscription`:\n```python\n@subscription_router.patch(\"\")\n@requires([\"authenticated\"])\nasync def update_subscription(request: Request, email: str, operation: str):\n    # IDOR: email parameter directly references user subscriptions without ownership verification\n    customers = stripe.Customer.list(email=email).auto_paging_iter()\n    customer = next(customers, None)\n    \n    if operation == \"cancel\":\n        # Any authenticated user can modify any subscription referenced by email\n        customer_id = customer.id\n        for subscription in stripe.Subscription.list(customer=customer_id):\n            stripe.Subscription.modify(subscription.id, cancel_at_period_end=True)\n```\n\n### PoC\n1. Create a customer account in stripe:\n   - Customer A: `adventure8812@zeropath.com` (attacker)\n\n2. Log in as any user.\n\n3.
