title: AWS Secrets Manager Bulk Secret Retrieval Via BatchGetSecretValue
id: 190abfbe-11dd-4851-942e-527883460358
status: test
description: |
Detects use of the AWS Secrets Manager BatchGetSecretValue API, which returns the values of multiple secrets in a single call.
Adversaries abuse this to harvest many secrets at once, frequently with a catch-all filter, lowering the API call volume compared to iterating GetSecretValue per secret.
