💼 [IAM.21] IAM customer managed policies that you create should not allow wildcard actions for services

• Contextual name: 💼 [IAM.21] IAM customer managed policies that you create should not allow wildcard actions for services

• ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/iam/21

• Located in: 💼 Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Description

When you assign permissions to AWS services, it is important to scope the allowed IAM actions in your IAM policies. You should restrict IAM actions to only those actions that are needed. This helps you to provision least privilege permissions. Overly permissive policies might lead to privilege escalation if the policies are attached to an IAM principal that might not require the permission.
