2. Do not sign-on system, directly try to download the file from the available download url, such as the input http://url/download?name=file and check if the systems restrict you to download the file.

6. Manually change the parameter value in the URL to check if you can access special pages. For example, suppose in a web system If ordinary users access the corresponding url in the parameters l = e and the corresponding url for advanced users in the parameters l = s. Now if a user manually change the value from e to s it should not allow you to access the page.
