Aws Not Protected With Waf

Category: Functionality Abuse

Detection Strategy

    • Scans all CloudFront distributions in the AWS account

    • Reports a vulnerability when a CloudFront distribution's WebACLId field is empty or missing

    • Each vulnerable distribution is reported individually with its specific ARN
