SSRF the cloud metadata

Cloud Security Difficulty Medium ~5 min +10 XP

This image proxy fetches whatever URL you hand it and returns the body - with no allow-list of where it may go. It runs on a cloud server that exposes an internal metadata service at 169.254.169.254. Point the proxy at that service's IAM credentials path, send it, and read the name of the IAM role it leaks.
