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 1 documented escalation path, but only on named resources or under a condition. Review that scope before trusting it.
- ec2-001iam:PassRole + ec2:RunInstancesscoped
  - iam:PassRole: condition aws:PrincipalTag/AmazonDataZoneEnvironment, aws:PrincipalTag/AmazonDataZoneProject, aws:ResourceAccount, iam:PassedToService, on arn:aws:iam::*:role/datazone_emr_ec2_instance_role_${aws:PrincipalTag/AmazonDataZoneProject}_${aws:PrincipalTag/AmazonDataZoneEnvironment}
  - ec2:RunInstances: condition ec2:Vpc
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.
