aws-cdk-libTL;DR
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to incorrect permission assignment when using Aspects with the default execution order. An attacker can assign DEFAULT permissions to a custom Aspect, which may be overridden by a built-in CDK method using MUTATING permissions. This can cause the custom Aspect to have either fewer or, in permissive environments, more permissions than expected.

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
