How it was found

Hi Team,

I hope this report finds you well.

While going through the disclosed report (██████████) I found that the coupon code for free shipping is not redacted and can be used multiple times on any numbers of order on AWS merch store. (██████)

Free Shipping Promo Code (pick one):
United ████: ████████
International: ███

Disclosed Coupon in █████ -

█████

Validation of Coupon -

Before applying coupon ██████████

After applying coupon (██████) ████████

As you can see the shipping is now free, and if it wasnt free it would have cost ~ $43

Looks like the system only validates whether the coupon string exists and is active. Each time the coupon is applied, the system accepts it and recalculates shipping cost as ₹0.

This results in a persistent ability to bypass shipping charges on every future order, with no expiration, tracking, or redemption log.

This is a classic business logic flaw where a missing server-side usage validation check leads to direct monetary loss.

Please help take look.

Kind regards
