6. © 2019 Puma Security, LLC | All Rights Reserved BREAKING NEWS On July 29, 2019, Capital One announced a data breach affecting resources hosted in AWS: • 106 million credit card applicants • 140,000 credit card holder social security numbers • 80,000 credit card linked bank account numbers • https://www.capitalone.com/facts2019/

8. © 2019 Puma Security, LLC | All Rights Reserved ARREST AFFIDAVIT Paige Thompson arrest affidavit reveals the story - March 22, 2019 • Recon: IAM role ****-WAF-Role runs the list-buckets command • Exfiltration: IAM role ****WAF-Role runs the sync command

9. © 2019 Puma Security, LLC | All Rights Reserved ARREST AFFIDAVIT CONTINUED • Thompson hid her identity during the attack using Tor and IPredator (VPN) • A Slack conversation revealed that she admitted to dumping data • Data published to a public GitHub Gist July 17, 2019 user reported Gist to Capital One’s responsible disclosure inbox

13. © 2019 Puma Security, LLC | All Rights Reserved WEB APPLICATION FIREWALL FAIL • The affidavit made it very clear an instance running a firewall was involved • Remember me? IAM role ****-WAF-Role • AWS WAF ruled out based on the fact it doesn’t run under an IAM role • August 2nd: Krebs report calls out Apache and ModSecurity • https://bit.ly/2T7cQNW

14. © 2019 Puma Security, LLC | All Rights Reserved EXACT MISCONFIGURATION UNKNOWN Speculation continues…maybe a combination of Apache, ModSecurity and ModProxy? https://twitter.com/ChrFolini/status/1157533808402620416

34. © 2019 Puma Security, LLC | All Rights Reserved MITIGATING CONTROL #0 | AWS METADATA ENHANCEMENT AWS should (and probably will given the high publicity surrounding this breach) make the following enhancements to better protect the metadata endpoint: 1. Follow the pattern used by Azure and Google Cloud Platform 2. Reject requests without a custom header 3. Automatically deny requests signed with the metadata credentials originating from a different resource / source IP address 1 2 Metadata-Flavor: Google Metadata: true
