python3.13 Support: Amazon Inspector Lambda code scanning

0

Any idea when AWS will support the python3.13 runtime for Amazon Inspector Lambda code scanning? It's been over a year since that runtime has be supported for Lambda. Seems like they're lagging here.

Current Support: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/inspector/latest/user/supported.html#w2aac64c21

According to the documentation you provided, python3.13 is supported for Lambda. This is under "Supported runtimes" section.

Based on the current documentation, Amazon Inspector Lambda standard scanning does support Python 3.13 for scanning Lambda functions for vulnerabilities in third-party software packages. However, it's important to note that Python 3.13 was actually released much more recently than a year ago - it became available as a Lambda runtime in late 2024.

Amazon Inspector offers two types of Lambda scanning: Lambda standard scanning (which scans application dependencies for package vulnerabilities) and Lambda code scanning (which scans custom application code for code vulnerabilities). While Python 3.13 is listed as supported for Lambda standard scanning, the specific support status for Lambda code scanning with Python 3.13 is not explicitly detailed in the available information.

If you're specifically looking for Lambda code scanning support for Python 3.13 and it's not yet available, this would be a relatively recent gap given the runtime's recent release. AWS typically adds support for new runtimes across their services progressively. You may want to check the latest documentation or contact AWS Support for the most current information on Lambda code scanning support for Python 3.13, as service capabilities are continuously being updated.
