AWS identified two vulnerabilities in specific versions of native clients for Amazon WorkSpaces, Amazon AppStream 2.0, and Amazon DCV. These issues could allow man-in-the-middle attacks, potentially giving attackers access to remote sessions. Affected versions include WorkSpaces clients 5.20.0 or earlier, AppStream 2.0 Windows client 1.1.1326 or earlier, and various DCV clients. AWS recommends upgrading to patched versions to address these security concerns.

Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) and the Task instance details
page in the Google Composer UI were not patched against CVE-2023-29247 (Stored XSS).
This meant that post-authentication, a threat actor could have exploited this
to store their JavaScript payload in the victim's managed Apache Airflow instance
and run JavaScript on behalf of the victim (who could be an admin or another
user with higher permissions than the threat actor, thereby leading to privilege escalation).
With JavaScript, threat actors could have run any operation in the session that the victim
is able to run — edit tasks, read jobs, run jobs, read plugins and configurations, 
list connections, add variables and more.

Azure Cognitive Search (ACS) is a full-text search engine service.
A new non-default feature allowed for a network control to bypassed, permitting an attacker to submit search queries to any other tenant's network-isolated ACS instance. However, abusing this required a valid API key 
to access the data plane of the target, along with a number of pieces of information about the target environment (such as the subscription ID and the name of the index to query).

Azure API Management is an API gateway service meant to help organizations to create, manage, secure,
and monitor APIs across all of their environments. Researchers found three high severity vulnerabilities
in the service, two of which are SSRF (Server Side Request Forgery) vulnerabilities, and the third is a
path traversal bug. The SSRF issues affected the Azure API Management CORS proxy (which handles schema
retrieval) and hosting proxy (which routes API requests to the correct server). An attacker successful
in exploiting each of these SSRF vulnerabilities could fake requests from these legitimate servers and
thereby gain access to internal Azure services. However, the researchers did not determine the effective
impact of this access level, and it's therefore possible that Azure had security measures in place which
would have blocked further lateral movement. The path-traversal vulnerability allowed for an unrestricted
file upload to the Azure developer portal server. The portal's authenticated mode allows users to upload
static files and images to be displayed within the portal website, but this vulnerability could have allowed
an attacker to upload code instead, and then potentially execute it on the server itself.

The @actions/core package had a delimiter injection vulnerability in the exportVariable function. Attackers could use a known delimiter to break out of a specific variable and assign values to other arbitrary variables. This may have allowed modification of path or environment variables without the intention of workflow or action authors.

Asset Key Thief was a Google Cloud 
privilege escalation vulnerability that enabled 
principals with the "Cloud Asset Viewer" role (or other roles 
with the `cloudasset.assets.searchAllResources` permission) on the 
Cloud Asset Inventory API, at the Project, Folder, or Organization level 
to view and exfiltrate any user-managed Service Account 
private key under a project within the same Google Cloud environment that 
had been created or rotated up to a maximum of 12 hours ago. 
Access to Service Account private keys enable the full assumption 
of that Service Account's identity and privileges, which would have given 
attackers with existing access to a Google Cloud environment a persistent and reliable
method of lateral movement and privilege escalation. Google has since fixed this 
vulnerability, but affected customers must rotate their keys manually.

3rd party vendors can (and sometimes do) incorrectly implement sts:ExternalId in their
AWS role trust policies, leading to confused deputy issues. These misconfigurations could
allow customers to access other customers' data. Although vendors are responsible for
ensuring their own configurations are correct, AWS could theoretically add mitigations
to prevent and detect this issue.

AWS identified an issue in the Amazon WorkSpaces Windows client which resulted in unintentionally logging
connection debugging information to a user's local system. This data could include usernames or passwords
if they contain specific characters: \ (backslash) or " (double quotes). If an attacker gained access to
an Amazon WorkSpaces user's machine, they could then compromise such credentials from the log.

The AWS Amplify service was found to be misconfiguring IAM roles associated 
with Amplify projects. This misconfiguration caused these roles to be assumable 
by any other AWS account. Both the Amplify Studio and the Amplify CLI 
exhibited this behavior. Any Amplify project created using the Amplify CLI
built between July 3, 2018 and August 8, 2019 had IAM roles that were assumable by
anyone in the world. The same was true if the authentication component was removed
from an Amplify project using the Amplify CLI or Amplify Studio built between
August 2019 and January 2024. AWS mitigated this vulnerability through backend changes to
STS and IAM, and also released a patch for the Amplify CLI to ensure that newly
created roles are properly configured in accordance with these changes.

Researchers at Omegapoint identified two issues in AWS API Gateway authorizers: 1) A header rewrite feature could be abused to bypass authorization by overwriting headers after the authorizer lambda processed them. 2) Caching of authorization policies could be exploited to reuse cached policies with modified identification sources, bypassing the authorizer.


AWS API Gateway Header Smuggling and Cache Confusion

A flaw in AWS API Gateway enabled hiding HTTP request headers. Tampering
with HTTP requests visibility enabled bypassing IP restrictions, cache poisoning
and request smuggling.

AppFlow had an undocumented service called sandstoneconfigurationservicelambda. 
An undocumented field (awsOwnedManagedAppCredentialsArn) could be used during
connector registration and connector updates. Specifying a victim's Secret ARN
as that field disclosed the clientId and clientSecret, so long as the victim
Secret ARN belonged to a connection profile which is of the type 
OAuth or contains clientId and clientSecret.

The AppFlow WooCommerce connector allowed specification of a full URL.
The connector included details of response content when the URL
offered an unexpected response. This means you could make arbitrary
GET requests to any URL from the WooCommerce connector, and view the 
response content. The response in the error was truncated to 500 characters.

The AWS AppSync service could be coerced to assume arbitrary roles in
other customers' accounts which trusted the AppSync service. This was
due to insufficient validation of a serviceRoleArn parameter (caused by
a case-sensitivity parsing issue). With this vulnerability, if an adversary
knew the ARN of the role associated with AppSync in the target account,
they could use it invoke arbitrary AWS API calls.

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) uses IAM to provide authentication to the cluster
through the AWS IAM Authenticator for Kubernetes (aws-iam-authenticator). Multiple issues
were identified in the authenticator that could have allowed exploitation, namely (1) a
lax regular expression used to verify presigned URLs; (2) HTTP client redirect follow
(due to using Golang HTTP client in its default configuration); (3) use of the Golang URL.Query
function (which silently drops parameters that Go considers invalid, rather than raising
an error and rejecting invalid tokens); and (4) no verification that the cluster uses Go
versions newer than 1.12 (as older versions are vulnerable to request smuggling).


Multiple issues in AWS IAM Authenticator for Kubernetes

AWS identified a security issue in the AWS CDK CLI versions 2.172.0-2.178.1 where temporary credentials from custom credential plugins could be printed to console output. This potentially exposes sensitive information to users with access to the console. The issue affects plugins that include an expiration property when returning temporary credentials.

The AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) is a way of deploying infrastructure-as-code. The vulnerability involves AWS CDK’s use of a predictable S3 bucket name format
(cdk-{Qualifier}-assets-{Account-ID}-{Region}), where the default “random” qualifier (hnb659fds) is common and easily guessed. If an AWS customer deletes this bucket and reuses CDK, 
an attacker who claims the bucket can inject malicious CloudFormation templates, potentially gaining admin access. Attackers supposedly only need the AWS account ID to prepare the bucket 
in various regions, exploiting the default naming convention. However, it is important to note that the additional conditions greatly lower the likelihood of exploitation. 
The victim must use the CDK, having deleted the bucket, and then subsequently attempt to deploy with the CDK. Making it so that even if there is a vulnerable account, it could be months, 
if ever for the attack to work.


AWS CDK Bucket Squatting Risk

The AWS Client VPN service was found to be affected by two
vulnerabilities which could potentially allow malicious actors with access to
a user’s device to execute arbitrary commands with elevated privileges,
including escalating to root access. Both vulnerabilities stem from buffer
overflow issues, a common programming error that can be exploited to overwrite
memory and gain unauthorized control over a system. The impact of these
vulnerabilities is severe, as successful exploitation could lead to complete
compromise of an affected device. Attackers could gain access to sensitive
data, install malware, or disrupt system operations. Given the widespread use
of AWS Client VPN for secure remote access, the potential for widespread
exploitation is a significant concern. AWS has acted swiftly to address these
vulnerabilities, releasing updated versions of the Client VPN software for all
supported platforms. However, the onus is on users to promptly apply these
updates to mitigate the risk.

An attacker with elevated permissions in CodeBuild could leak 
the configured credentials for Github/Bitbucket. This was possible by 
configuring the http_proxy and https_proxy variables, which would allow 
you to capture the credentials via MITM.
