New attack technique: SES enumeration activities (#501)
* New attack technique: ses enumeration activities Co-authored-by: Alessandro Brucato <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Susini <[email protected]> * Add missing dependency * Cosmetic code enhancements * Don't use an additional IAM role, and enumerate additional things * Only use SES (not SESv2) API calls following recommendation from an IR practitioner * Generate docs --------- Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Susini <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: Alessandro Brucato <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: Christophe Tafani-Dereeper <[email protected]>

# Enumerate SES | ||

<span class="smallcaps w3-badge w3-blue w3-round w3-text-white" title="This attack technique can be detonated multiple times">idempotent</span> | ||

## MITRE ATT&CK Tactics | ||
|
||
|
||
- Discovery | ||
|
||
## Description | ||
|
||
|
||
Simulates an attacker enumerating SES. Attackers frequently use this enumeration technique after having compromised an access key, to use it to launch phishing campaigns or further resell stolen credentials. | ||
|
||
<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">Warm-up</span>: None. | ||

|
||
- Perform <code>ses:GetAccountSendingEnabled</code> to check if SES sending is enabled. | ||
- Perform <code>ses:GetSendQuota</code> to discover the current [email sending quotas](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/APIReference/API_GetSendQuota.html). | ||
- Perform <code>ses:ListIdentities</code> to discover the list of [identities](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/APIReference/API_ListIdentities.html) in the account. | ||
- If identities are found, use <code>ses:GetIdentityVerificationAttributes</code> (only once) to discover [verification status](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/APIReference/API_GetIdentityVerificationAttributes.html) of each identity. | ||

## Instructions | ||
|
||
```bash title="Detonate with Stratus Red Team" | ||
stratus detonate aws.discovery.ses-enumerate | ||
``` | ||
## Detection | ||
|
||
|
||
Through CloudTrail's <code>GetAccountSendingEnabled</code>, <code>GetSendQuota</code> and <code>ListIdentities</code> events. | ||
These can be considered suspicious especially when performed by a long-lived access key, or when the calls span across multiple regions. | ||
