In this module, we will tackle six hands-on challenges from the Flaws series, each simulating real-world AWS vulnerabilities. Starting with enumeration and weak S3 permissions, we will progress through advanced scenarios involving open repositories, unencrypted EBS volumes, and EC2 metadata exploitation. By the final challenge, we’ll address complex issues in IAM policies, Lambda, and REST APIs. These exercises are designed to build confidence and expertise in identifying and exploiting AWS-specific security flaws.

In this module, we will use CloudGoat, a hands-on AWS pentesting training resource, to explore realistic security scenarios. Starting with the configuration of CloudGoat, we’ll tackle specific challenges such as IAM privilege escalation via rollback and attachment, Lambda and EC2 misconfigurations, and S3 bucket breaches. Each scenario will enhance your understanding of AWS vulnerabilities and teach you the techniques necessary to identify and exploit these weaknesses in real-world environments.
