Description

### Name of the resource

AWS::KMS::Key

### Resource name

_No response_

### Description

The AWS::KMS:Key resource have a defect. There is tag propogation inconsistency with most other CloudFormation resources where the stack-level tags are not propagated as expected although the KMS resource supports the Tags property.

The ability to trace a resource created by a Stack back to the Stack that created via the automatically created Stack tags, i.e. the tags with pattern "aws:cloudformation:*" is critical for avoiding making drift causing changes directly to resources because it points those looking such changes back to the orginating Stack to make the changes in the Stack template instead, thereby avoiding the Stack drift.

Any indication of an ETA for a fix for this defect would be greatly appreciated.

Research direction

The issue identifies AWS::KMS::Key and its Tags property, but provides no repository files, tests, or code entry points. Start by investigating how CloudFormation stack-level tags are propagated to this resource; done means confirming consistent propagation of the automatically generated aws:cloudformation:* tags or documenting the blocking upstream behavior.
