Known SSRF vulnerabilities that exploit and use this attack as a pivot into your environment. The famous attacks you have heard about, some of which involved this method of gaining access via a vulnerable web app with access to the instance metadata service. Attacker could take said credentials from metadata service and use them outside of that particular instance. IMDSv2 and why it should be used: Ensuring that instances are configured to use IMDSv2. This is the recommended configuration for new instances. It is also recommended to disable the instance metadata service where it is not needed. This is to reduce the attack surface.
