For real-world, complicated applications, that's virtually always a game-over vulnerability no matter what cloud you're deployed on. Be extraordinarily careful with backend code that generates HTTP requests based on user inputs.

Pentesters have been using this trick to pivot from unexpected backend web proxies to (e.g.) management consoles, LOM servers, JBoss interfaces, &c for 15 years or so already.
