AWS Security Tool Introduces Privilege Escalation Risk
AWS's Account Assessment for AWS Organizations tool, designed to audit cross-account access, inadvertently introduced privilege escalation risks due to flawed deployment instructions. Customers were encouraged to deploy the tool in lower-sensitivity accounts, creating risky trust paths from insecure environments into highly sensitive ones. This could allow attackers to pivot from compromised development accounts into production and management accounts.
