Checks for inbound rules in Amazon EC2 security groups allowing unrestricted access (0.0.0.0/0 or ::/0) on TCP port 445, used for CIFS/SMB file sharing, posing a high security risk.
impact:|
Unrestricted CIFS access can expose EC2 instances to unwanted external access, increasing the risk of data breaches and unauthorized control over resources.
remediation:|
Restrict inbound access on TCP port 445 to known IPs or ranges. Regularly review security group configurations to ensure compliance with security policies.
