[ Cloud Computing ] security issue at AWS

As Colin says, "The important bit first:"

"If you are making Query (aka REST) requests to Amazon SimpleDB, to Amazon
Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), or to Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) over HTTP,
and there is any way for an attacker to provide you with data which you use to
construct your request, switch to HTTPS or start using AWS signature version 2
now."

AWS signature version 1 is insecure
