boto3 (AWS SDK)
PyPIboto3boto3 is the official AWS SDK for Python, used to interact with S3, EC2, Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, and virtually every other AWS service. It reads credentials from environment variables, `~/.aws/credentials`, or IAM instance metadata, and is present in nearly every Python application deployed on AWS.

}Why this package is monitored
boto3 resolves IAM credentials from env vars, ~/.aws/credentials, or instance metadata during client init. Stolen keys inherit whatever S3, DynamoDB, Lambda, or other permissions the role grants.
Attestd monitors boto3 using the following detection sources:
registryManually curated advisories in the Attestd registry, verified by a human analyst. Confidence 1.0.
osvOSV.dev malicious-package advisories with IDs prefixed MAL-. Confidence 0.95.
pypi_yankVersions yanked on PyPI with a security-related yanked_reason annotation. Confidence 0.80.
