If you can get access to them (by reading `/proc/self/environ` or using the vulnerable function itself), you can use them yourself. They live in the default variable names `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN`, `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, and `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`. + +By default, these will have access to write to a cloudwatch log group (the name of which is stored in `AWS_LAMBDA_LOG_GROUP_NAME`), as well as to create arbitrary log groups, however lambda functions frequently have more permissions assigned based on their intended use. + ### Steal Others Lambda URL Requests If an attacker somehow manage to get RCE inside a Lambda he will be able to steal other users HTTP requests to the lambda. If the requests contain sensitive information (cookies, credentials...) he will be able to steal them.
