Enumerate IAM Permissions
Enumerate IAM Permissions is a security assessment tool designed to identify and map the permissions associated with AWS credentials through systematic API call enumeration. The tool operates by performing brute-force testing against AWS APIs to determine which actions are permitted by a given IAM policy. It focuses primarily on non-destructive operations, specifically targeting get* and list* API calls to avoid causing any modifications or damage to the AWS environment during testing. The enumeration process helps security professionals and administrators understand the actual scope of permissions granted to specific AWS credentials, which may differ from the intended or documented permissions. This capability is particularly useful for security audits, privilege escalation assessments, and identifying potential over-privileged accounts. The tool provides visibility into the effective permissions of IAM policies by testing real API calls rather than relying solely on policy document analysis. This approach can reveal permissions that might be granted through complex policy combinations, inheritance, or service-linked roles that may not be immediately apparent from static policy review.
