The reported AWS S3 vulnerability was inherited from the go-getter module that Packer uses for downloading files from external sources. This vulnerability only impacts S3 uploads, therefore Packer is not vulnerable itself as go-getter only downloads such blobs. Since the change required to fix this advisory would be to bump the AWS SDK to v2, this being a major change, is not something to do lightly, so we opted to ignore this advisory for now so it doesn't block upcoming releases.
