Hot Take:

Oh, AWS, we trusted you! But now you’ve given hackers a free pass to rummage through our closets and steal our best secrets. Time to upgrade that SAM CLI before it turns into a real-life game of “Who Wants to Be an Intruder?”

Key Points:

  • AWS SAM CLI has two security vulnerabilities, CVE-2025-3047 and CVE-2025-3048.
  • CVE-2025-3047 allows unauthorized access to privileged files via symlinks in Docker environments.
  • CVE-2025-3048 exposes sensitive symlink content in the local workspace cache post-build.
  • The vulnerabilities affect AWS SAM CLI versions up to v1.133.0.
  • Users are urged to upgrade to versions 1.133.0 and 1.134.0 for fixes.
