AWS VDP · Report #3426839
Unlimited Reuse of Coupon Code Allows Free Shipping on All Orders on ██████████
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
