US Patent 11258788 Protections against security vulnerabilities associated with temporary access tokens

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for automatically detecting and addressing security risks in code segments. Techniques include identifying a request from a network identity for an action involving a target network resource, wherein the action requires a temporary access token. Techniques further include performing, based on a security policy, at least one of: storing the temporary access token separate from the network identity and providing the network identity with a customized replacement token having an attribute different from the temporary access token; or creating a customized replacement role for the network identity, the customized replacement role having associated permissions that are customized for the network identity based on the request.
