Risk

Medium

The same capabilities in a scoped form, resource policy writes, reads across all data, or full access to a whole service. Read from this policy document alone: trust policies, boundaries and SCPs in your account still decide what actually succeeds. How this is assessed

Medium
Full a4b access on every resource
Uses a4b:* with Resource "*" and no condition, so every action AWS adds to that service later is granted too.
a4b:*
Use with caution: The grant grows every time the service does. For long-lived access, prefer a policy that lists the actions you actually need.

Warning / CREATE_SLR_WITH_STAR_IN_RESOURCE
Using the iam:CreateServiceLinkedRole action with wildcards (*) in the resource can allow creation of unintended service-linked roles. We recommend that you specify resource ARNs instead. AWS docs
