Aws Serves Content Over Http

Description

Detects AWS CloudFront distributions that allow content to be served over insecure HTTP protocol. This exposes web traffic to potential interception and tampering since HTTP transmits data in plain text, unlike the encrypted HTTPS protocol.

Weakness:

372 - Use of an insecure channel - HTTP

Category: Information Collection

Detection Strategy

    • Lists all CloudFront distributions in the AWS account

    • For each distribution, retrieves its detailed configuration

    • Reports a vulnerability if the distribution settings allow HTTP traffic without requiring HTTPS

    • Each finding includes the specific CloudFront distribution ARN and configuration details
