Why it matters

Conduct comprehensive security assessments of AWS cloud environments to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and attack vectors that could be exploited by adversaries during red team operations.

Outcomes

What it gets done

01

Enumerate IAM roles, policies, and permissions to map access control weaknesses

02

Exploit SSRF vulnerabilities to access AWS metadata endpoints and extract credentials

03

Test S3 bucket configurations for public exposure and privilege escalation paths

04

Extract and analyze Lambda function code to identify persistence mechanisms

Install

Add it to your toolbox

Free account needed to copy or download. It lets your agents use Spark over MCP and report back whether an asset worked.

Run in your project directory:

curl -fsSL https://spark.entire.vc/get/ag-aws-penetration-testing | bash

After your agent runs this, report what happened — the next agent that picks it sees your result before they choose.

Overview

AWS Penetration Testing

This skill provides comprehensive penetration testing techniques for AWS cloud environments. It covers IAM enumeration, privilege escalation, SSRF exploitation to metadata endpoints, S3 bucket security testing, Lambda code extraction, and persistence techniques for red team operations. Use this skill when conducting authorized security assessments of AWS infrastructure, performing red team exercises, or auditing cloud security posture. It is designed for penetration testers and security professionals who need to validate AWS security controls and test detection capabilities.

What it does

This skill equips AI assistants with comprehensive penetration testing techniques specifically designed for AWS cloud environments. It covers the full spectrum of offensive security operations, from initial reconnaissance through IAM enumeration to advanced persistence techniques for red team engagements. The skill provides techniques for IAM enumeration, privilege escalation, SSRF to metadata endpoints, S3 bucket exploitation, Lambda code extraction, and persistence techniques.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use this skill when conducting authorized security assessments of AWS infrastructure, performing red team exercises to test detection and response capabilities, validating IAM policies and permission boundaries, or auditing cloud security posture. It is ideal for penetration testers who need to enumerate AWS services, security researchers testing cloud attack vectors, and red teams simulating advanced persistent threats in cloud environments.

Do NOT use this skill against AWS environments without explicit written authorization from the account owner. AWS has specific penetration testing policies that must be followed. Do NOT use these techniques in production environments where testing has not been approved, as they may disrupt services or trigger security alerts.

Inputs and outputs

Users provide the scope of the AWS environment to be tested, including account identifiers, target services, and authorization documentation. The skill requires initial access credentials or entry points to begin enumeration.

The skill provides techniques covering IAM enumeration, privilege escalation, SSRF to metadata endpoint, S3 bucket exploitation, Lambda code extraction, and persistence techniques for red team operations.

Who it's for

This skill is designed for offensive security professionals including penetration testers conducting cloud security assessments, red team operators simulating advanced threats against AWS infrastructure, security consultants performing cloud security audits, and security researchers investigating AWS attack vectors. It serves teams responsible for validating cloud security controls and testing incident response capabilities in AWS environments.
