Insecure service configuration - IAM
Description
In compliance with the different security standards for cloud computing such as ISO 27017 and NIST SP 800-144, no sensitive information should be stored among the information that is uploaded to the cloud, as this may result in data leakage, as in the case of AWS IAM passwords.
Impact
Generate data leakage within the sensitive information that is uploaded to the cloud, for example, the case of how through the credentials that were stored in the code can be obtained data from the buckets and AWS services.
Recommendation
Do not store credentials in the code, it is necessary to use environment variables and protected secret sources.
Threat
Internal attacker with access to services configurations.
Expected Remediation Time
⌚ 45 minutes.
