Wiz researchers disclosed a new class of AWS cross-account vulnerabilities in CloudTrail, AWS Config, and Serverless Repository that could let an attacker cause AWS services to perform actions on the attacker’s behalf, enabling unauthorized read/write access into other customers’ accounts (including private S3 buckets). AWS added policy conditions to mitigate the issue, but because customers must update their resource policies, Wiz’s survey found many environments remain vulnerable—Wiz warns this exposure could permit data exfiltration and that similar issues may exist in other AWS services.
