Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.
You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.
What is this endpoint?
lambda/api/v1/invoke
AWS Lambda Invocation Endpoint
What an attacker could do
A directly invokable Lambda endpoint without authorization lets an attacker execute the function with arbitrary input, potentially abusing its IAM role to reach other AWS resources or run up costs.
How to defend it
Front Lambda with API Gateway authorizers or IAM auth, apply least-privilege execution roles, and validate all event input within the function.
