Hot Take:

Looks like AWS’s TEAM might need a coach! Who knew that managing temporary elevated access was like trying to keep a cat off the kitchen counter? It’s all fun and games until someone figures out how to spoof an approval. But worry not, folks, because version 1.2.2 is here to save the day – or at least, save your identity center from turning into a playground for rogue requests!

Key Points:

  • Improper request input validation in AWS TEAM for IAM Identity Center makes it vulnerable.
  • Users can modify requests and spoof approvals, creating security risks.
  • Version 1.2.2 of TEAM fixes this vulnerability.
  • Upgrade to the latest version is strongly recommended.
  • Redshift Cyber Security assisted in identifying this issue.
