## AWS Privilege Escalation
|
|
|
|
The way to escalate your privileges in AWS is to have enough permissions to be able to, somehow, access other roles/users/groups privileges. Chaining escalations until you have admin access over the organization.
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="warning" %}
|
|
AWS has **hundreds** (if not thousands) of **permissions** that an entity can be granted. In this book you can find **all the permissions that I know** that you can abuse to **escalate privileges**, but if you **know some path** not mentioned here, **please share it**.
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="danger" %}
|
|
If an IAM policy has `"Effect": "Allow"` and `"NotAction": "Someaction"` indicating a **resource**... that means that the **allowed principal** has **permission to do ANYTHING but that specified action**.\
|
|
So remember that this is another way to **grant privileged permissions** to a principal.
|
|

|
|
|
**The pages of this section are ordered by AWS service. In there you will be able to find permissions that will allow you to escalate privileges.**
