Lab Walkthrough Video:


Serverless Architecture is said to be more secure compared to traditional architectures. However, this does not mean attacks cannot be performed on it. 

In this lab, we will learn how a vulnerable lambda function can be leveraged to perform an SSRF attack and read files from the running container

Objective: Exploit the Server Side Request Forgery vulnerability and retrieve the Role's access key, secret and session token.

Technical Support for this Lab:

There is a reason we provide unlimited lab time: you can take as much time as you need to solve a lab. However, we realize that sometimes hints might be necessary to keep you motivated!

We currently provide technical support limited to:

  • Giving hints for a lab exercise
  • In rare circumstances, if you have totally given up (NO!!!) then tell you how to solve it. This will be limited to sharing the solution video or lab report
  • A lab exercise fails to load or has errors in it

If you need technical support, please email  attackdefense@pentesteracademy.com  clearly mention the name and link of the lab exercise and other essential details. The more descriptive you are, the faster we can help you. We will get back to you within 24 hours or less.
