  name: CloudFront Insecure Origin SSL Protocols
  author: DhiyaneshDK
  severity: medium
  description: |
    Ensure that your Amazon CloudFront Content Delivery Network (CDN) distributions are not using insecure SSL protocols (i.e. SSLv3) for HTTPS communication between CloudFront edge locations and custom origins.
  impact: |
    Insecure SSL protocols for CloudFront origins can expose sensitive data to interception and compromise, increasing the risk of man-in-the-middle attacks.
  remediation: |
    Configure your CloudFront distribution to enforce the use of secure SSL/TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or higher) for all origins and disable support for outdated protocols like SSLv3 and TLS 1.0/1.1.
