AWS EC2 network attack surface information error

[vo243]

Bug:

When running "scout aws", I'm unable to get the EC2 network attack surface information.

Scout throws the following error:

ERROR provider.py L273: Error completing EC2 network attack surface information: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable

I've tried this on an Ubuntu 22.04 system with python 3.10.12, and also on Ubuntu 24.04 with python 3.12.3.

Here's the relevant ouput section with the --debug run on Ubuntu 22.04/python 3.10.12:

To reproduce, I just run

python scout.py aws

Any guidance is very appreciated!
