We've covered a lot of material involving attacking Lambda functions, but in this section, we will discuss pivoting from access to a Lambda function to access to the internal network of a virtual private cloud (VPC). This is made possible because Lambda functions can be launched into VPCs for a variety of reasons. This provides us attackers with Lambda access with the ability to interact with internal hosts and services that we may not otherwise be able to gain access to.
Again, we can approach this from two different angles. If we have the required privileges, we can launch a new Lambda function into a VPC of our choice, or we can modify the code of a Lambda function that has already been launched into ...
