We should also be able to parse the following:

Check for specific Policy ARNs

# Provider configuration
provider "aws" {
  region = "us-west-2"
}

# Create an IAM role
resource "aws_iam_role" "example_role" {
  name = "example-role"

  assume_role_policy = jsonencode({
    Version = "2012-10-17",
    Statement = [
      {
        Effect = "Allow",
        Principal = {
          Service = "ec2.amazonaws.com"
        },
        Action = "sts:AssumeRole"
      }
    ]
  })
}

# Attach the AmazonS3FullAccess policy to the IAM role
resource "aws_iam_role_policy_attachment" "example_role_policy_attachment" {
  role       = aws_iam_role.example_role.name
  policy_arn = "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AmazonS3FullAccess"
}

Here "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AmazonS3FullAccess" equates to the following:

{
  "Version" : "2012-10-17",
  "Statement" : [
    {
      "Effect" : "Allow",
      "Action" : [
        "s3:*",
        "s3-object-lambda:*"
      ],
      "Resource" : "*"
    }
  ]
}

Check for JSON Policy docs

just to confirm, is there any change needed in the check (AVD-AWS-0345) in order to leverage this?
also, please document the new feature

@nikpivkin in addition to checking for named IAM policies, we also need to check for conditions such as s3:get:*, s3:put:* etc or in general s3:<verb>:*. Today the check only checks for s3:*. Here's an input that we also need to validate and flag:

resource "aws_iam_role_policy" "ecs_task_role_s3_attachment_policy" {
  name = "${local.iam_task_role_policy_name}"
  role = "${aws_iam_role.stepfunction_ecs_task_role.id}"
  policy = <<EOF
{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
       {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "s3:put*",
                "s3:get*",
                "s3:list*"
            ],
            "Resource": "*"
        },
         {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "kinesis:DescribeStream",
                "kinesis:GetRecords",
                "kinesis:PutRecords"

            ],
            "Resource": [
                "${aws_kinesis_stream.stepfunction_ecs_kinesis_stream.arn}"
            ]
        }
    ]
}
EOF
}
