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
Can launch resources that run as a more privileged role
Grants the actions of 2 documented escalation paths, but only on named resources or under a condition. Review that scope before trusting it.
- glue-003iam:PassRole + glue:CreateJob + glue:StartJobRunscoped
  - iam:PassRole: condition iam:PassedToService, on arn:aws:iam::*:role/datazone*
  - glue:StartJobRun: condition aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneEnvironment
- glue-005iam:PassRole + glue:UpdateJob + glue:StartJobRunscoped
  - iam:PassRole: condition iam:PassedToService, on arn:aws:iam::*:role/datazone*
  - glue:UpdateJob: condition aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneEnvironment
  - glue:StartJobRun: condition aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneEnvironment
Use with caution: Check which roles, users or policies fall inside the scope shown above. Within it the escalation works as documented, so keep privileged principals out of it.
Medium
Can read secrets
Reads Glue connection passwords, on any resource with no condition.
glue:GetConnection
Use with caution: Where the holder needs only some secrets, write your own policy scoped to their ARNs or tags, and limit decryption in the KMS key policies.
Medium
Can rewrite resource policies and sharing
Grants 4 permissions management actions across 1 service (datazone) on any resource, enough to share resources outside the account.
datazone:addpolicygrantdatazone:deletedomainsharingpolicydatazone:putdomainsharingpolicydatazone:removepolicygrant
Use with caution: Turn on IAM Access Analyzer external access findings, and keep account-level guards like S3 Block Public Access enabled.
Medium
Full access to 2 services on every resource
Uses datazone:*, sqlworkbench:* with Resource "*" and no condition, so every action AWS adds to those services later is granted too.
datazone:*sqlworkbench:*
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.

IAM Access Analyzer (4)

Warning / POLICY_SIZE_EXCEEDS_IDENTITY_POLICY_QUOTA
The 11830 characters in the identity policy, excluding whitespace, exceed the 10240 character maximum for inline and managed policies. We recommend that you use multiple granular policies. AWS docs
Suggestion / REDUNDANT_ACTION
The 2 action(s) are redundant because they provide similar permissions. Update the policy to remove the redundant action such as: logs:DescribeMetricFilters. AWS docs
Suggestion / EQUIVALENT_TO_NULL_FALSE
We recommend replacing the key aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneDomain in the condition block of StringLike with {aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneDomain: false} to ensure better enforcement of the condition. AWS docs
Suggestion / EQUIVALENT_TO_NULL_FALSE
We recommend replacing the key aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneProject in the condition block of StringLike with {aws:ResourceTag/AmazonDataZoneProject: false} to ensure better enforcement of the condition. AWS docs
