Lambda Looter

Presented at DEF CON 31 (2023), Aug. 12, 2023, 10 a.m. (115 minutes)

Organizations can have thousands of lines of code that are stored in Lambda on AWS. This application was built to help reduce the amount of time it takes to review that code. On our last Pen Test, we had so much Lambda code to review it was impossible to parse through all of it in the short amount of time assigned to our test. This lack of time created a necessity to automate the review of that lambda code for secrets. Lambda Looter will take a list of profiles and scan through them and download the code you have access to and then process that code for secrets, outputting any potential secrets to a loot directory. Even though this tool can generate a number of false positives it makes looking for secrets much faster than scanning the code manually.
