The Global Namespace Risk: Universal Bucket Hijacking Technique for Cloud Data Exfiltration
High
Summary
This report details a newly discovered bucket hijacking technique impacting major cloud service providers (CSPs) like Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft Azure. The vulnerability exploits a shared namespace design where globally unique bucket names are used, allowing attackers to silently redirect data streams by deleting and recreating buckets with the same name. This enables data exfiltration and poses a significant risk to organizations relying on automated data streams for logging and retention.
