Documentation

README

Excerpt

Ensure there are no Lambda functions with admin privileges within your AWS account

Description

Ensure that your Amazon Lambda functions don't have administrative permissions potentially giving the function access to all AWS cloud services and resources.

In order to promote the Principle of Least Privilege (POLP) and provide your functions the minimal amount of access required to perform their tasks the right IAM execution role associated with the function should be used. Instead of providing administrative permissions you should grant the role the necessary permissions that the function really needs.

Impact

Removing admin privileges from Lambda execution roles may break functions that rely on broad permissions. Functions should be tested after permission changes.
