 ### `codestar:CreateProjectFromTemplate`
 
-1. Use **`codestar:CreateProjectFromTemplate`** to create a new project.
-   1. You will be granted access to **`cloudformation:UpdateStack`** on a stack that has the “CodeStarWorker-\<project name>-CloudFormation” IAM role passed to it.
-2. Use the CloudFormation permissions to update the target stack with a CloudFormation template of your choice.
-   1. The name of the stack that needs to be updated will be “awscodestar-\<project name>-infrastructure” or “awscodestar-\<project name>-lambda”, depending on what template is used (in the example exploit script, at least).
-
-At this point, you would now have **full access** to the permissions granted to the **CloudFormation IAM role**. You won’t be able to get full administrator with this alone; you’ll need other misconfigured resources in the environment to help you do that.
+1. **Create a New Project:**
+   - Utilize the **`codestar:CreateProjectFromTemplate`** action to initiate the creation of a new project.
+     - Upon successful creation, access is automatically granted for **`cloudformation:UpdateStack`**.
+     - This access specifically targets a stack associated with the `CodeStarWorker-<generic project name>-CloudFormation` IAM role.
+
+2. **Update the Target Stack:**
+   - With the granted CloudFormation permissions, proceed to update the specified stack.
+     - The stack's name will typically conform to one of two patterns:
+       - `awscodestar-<generic project name>-infrastructure`
+       - `awscodestar-<generic project name>-lambda`
+       - The exact name depends on the chosen template (referencing the example exploit script).
+
+3. **Access and Permissions:**
+   - Post-update, you obtain the capabilities assigned to the **CloudFormation IAM role** linked with the stack.
+   - Note: This does not inherently provide full administrator privileges. Additional misconfigured resources within the environment might be required to elevate privileges further.

 ### Gathering credentials from Identity Pool
 
 As Cognito can grant **IAM role credentials** to both **authenticated** an **unauthenticated** **users**, if you locate the **Identity Pool ID** of an application (should be hardcoded on it) you can obtain new credentials and therefore privesc (inside an AWS account where you probably didn't even have any credential previously).

 An attacker could also use these permissions to **enroll himself to a Cognito stream that publish changes** on these datases or a **lambda that triggers on cognito events**. I haven't seen this being used, and I wouldn't expect sensitive information here, but it isn't impossible.
