There are some steps can be done during that phase.

EC2 Privilege Escalation

Get Information about user identity / role identity :

aws sts get-caller-identity

Lists all managed policies that are attached to the specified IAM user:

aws iam list-attached-user-policies --user-name user-name

Retrieves information about the specified version of the specified managed policy :

aws iam get-policy-version --policy-arnpolicy-arn--version-id version-id

Get-Information about instance id :

curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id
