## Episode Summary

## Episode Show Notes & Transcript

Last week in security news: CloudFlare had a Confused Deputy Vulnerability, Moving Away from IAM Identity Center, AWS KMS now supports importing asymmetric and HMAC keys, and more!  
  
**Links:**

- CloudFlare had a [Confused Deputy Vulnerability](https://albertpedersen.com/blog/cloudflare-casb-confused-deputy/)
- As I move away from IAM Identity Center, I find it interesting that a lot of [folks I respect](https://blog.beachgeek.co.uk/keycloak-on-aws-part-one/) are doing similar things.
- I was going to drag [this otherwise awesome article](https://garden.io/blog/aws-security-issue) disclosing the vulnerability they located within AWS CDK's eks.Cluster component.
- [AWS KMS now supports importing asymmetric and HMAC keys](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2023/06/aws-kms-importing-asymmetric-hmac-keys/)
- Tool/ Tip of the week: List of [documented and undocumented AWS API models](https://github.com/Frichetten/aws-api-models)
