MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).

  • Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.80). The nested stack example uses a TemplateURL (https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/vpc.yaml) which CloudFormation fetches at stack-creation time and thus would execute remote template content that directly controls deployed resources, constituting a runtime external dependency.
