The Cloud Privilege Escalation Awesome Script Suite provides tools for enumerating permissions across major cloud platforms like Azure, GCP, and AWS, helping users identify potential privilege escalation pathways and sensitive information access. It includes specific modules such as AzurePEAS for Azure environments and GCPPEAS for Google Cloud, utilizing advanced techniques for thorough permission analysis without altering any resources. Users can run these tools with various authentication methods and options for enhanced enumeration.

A new privilege escalation technique in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) leverages IAM Conditions and tagBindings, allowing users with low-risk roles to gain elevated access by attaching specific tags to resources. This method exploits the oversight of tag permissions, which are often not considered sensitive, leading to unauthorized access without modifying IAM policies directly. The article highlights the risks associated with misconfigured trust boundaries in GCP's IAM setup.
