Metabadger: Automating IMDS Protection at Scale in AWS

Presented at BSidesSF 2022 Rescheduled, June 5, 2022, 1:30 p.m. (25 minutes).

Metabadger is an open source tool that we built at Salesforce that can help you rapidly and safely upgrade your EC2 instances to use IMDSv2 and prevent SSRF-based theft of EC2 Metadata Credentials. In this talk, we'll walk through how we approached and automated this problem to prevent IMDS abuse.
