InSpec for AWS

  • Project State: Maintained

For more information on project states and SLAs, see this documentation.

This InSpec resource pack uses the AWS Ruby SDK v3 and provides the required resources to write tests for resources in AWS.

Prerequisites

AWS Credentials

Valid AWS credentials are required, see AWS Documentation

There are multiple ways to set AWS credentials as shown below:

1) Environment Variables

Set your AWS credentials in an .envrc file or export them in your shell. (See example .envrc file)

    # Example configuration
    export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="AKIAJUMP347SLS66IGCQ"
    export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="vD2lfoNvPdwsofqyuO9jRuWUkZIMqisdfeFmkHTy7ON+w"
    export AWS_REGION="eu-west-3"
    export AWS_AVAILABILITY_ZONE="eu-west-3a"

2) Configuration File

Set your AWS credentials in ~/.aws/config and ~/.aws/credentials file. (See example aws configure credentials)

Example ~/.aws/credentials :

   [default]
   aws_access_key_id=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
   aws_secret_access_key=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
   
   [engineering]
   aws_access_key_id=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLF
   aws_secret_access_key=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY1

Example ~/.aws/config :

   [default]
   region=us-west-2
   
   [engineering]
   region=us-east-2

AWS SDK will select the default credentials unless aws_profile is set in an .envrc

    # Example configuration
    export AWS_PROFILE="engineering"
The credentials precedence is:
  1. Credentials set in .envrc OR as an Environment variable.
  2. Credentials set in ~/.aws/credentials AND ~/.aws/config AND AWS_PROFILE set as an Environment variable.
  3. Credentials set in ~/.aws/credentials AND ~/.aws/config AND AWS_PROFILE is NOT set as an Environment variable. Default credentials will be used.

AWS Region

The aws_region parameter can be provided to query resources in a specific region. If not provided, the AWS region set in environment variables or configuration files will be used.

Example:

describe aws_ec2_instances(aws_region: 'us-west-2') do
  its('count') { should eq 10 }
end

Assuming an IAM role

Assuming an IAM role allows an IAM user to gain additional/different permissions to perform actions in a different AWS account. (See example aws configure IAM role)

Example:

   [profile example_profile]
   role_arn = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/example_profile
   source_profile = user1

Permissions

Each resource will require specific permissions to perform the operations required for testing. For example, to test an AWS EC2 instance, your service principal will require the ec2:DescribeInstances and iam:GetInstanceProfile permissions. You can find a comprehensive list of each resource's required permissions in the documentation.

Use the Resources

Since this is an InSpec resource pack, it only defines InSpec resources. It includes example tests only. To easily use the AWS resources in your tests do the following:

$ inspec init profile --platform aws my-profile

The above command will generate a sample inspec.yml that depends on master. We recommend this is pinned to a release of the resource pack as follows:

name: my-profile
title: My own AWS profile
version: 0.1.0
inspec_version: '>= 4.6.9'
depends:
  - name: inspec-aws
    url: https://github.com/inspec/inspec-aws/archive/x.tar.gz
supports:
  - platform: aws

(For available inspec-aws versions, see this list of inspec-aws versions.)

Add some tests and run the profile via:

$ inspec exec my-profile -t aws://

Resource documentation

This resouce pack allows the testing of the following AWS resources. If a resource you wish to test is not listed, please feel free to open an Issue. As an open source project, we also welcome public contributions via Pull Request.

Examples

Ensure Security Groups Disallow FTP

For disallowing FTP we check that there is no ingress from 0.0.0.0/0 on port 21. The below sample control loops across all regions, checking all security groups for the account:

title 'Test AWS Security Groups Across All Regions For an Account Disallow FTP'

control 'aws-multi-region-security-group-ftp-1.0' do

  impact 1.0
  title 'Ensure AWS Security Groups disallow FTP ingress from 0.0.0.0/0.'

  aws_regions.region_names.each do |region|
    aws_security_groups(aws_region: region).group_ids.each do |security_group_id|
      describe aws_security_group(aws_region: region, group_id: security_group_id) do
        it { should exist }
        it { should_not allow_in(ipv4_range: '0.0.0.0/0', port: 21) }
      end
    end
  end
end

Test that an EC2 instance is running & using the correct AMI

    describe aws_ec2_instance(name: 'ProdWebApp') do
      it              { should be_running }
      its('image_id') { should eq 'ami-27a58d5c' }
    end

Ensure all AWS Users have MFA enabled

    describe aws_iam_users.where( has_mfa_enabled: false) do
      it { should_not exist }
    end

Properties Applying to All InSpec AWS Resources

aws_region

In order to provide multi-region support, the aws_region property may be specified to a resource. This will only have an effect on AWS resources that have a region dependency e.g. security groups. One special-case worth mentioning is the aws_s3_bucket resource that updates its region based on the location returned from S3.

The aws_regions resource can be used to loop across all regions e.g.

  aws_regions.region_names.each do |region|
    <use region in other resources here>
  end

aws_endpoint

A custom endpoint URL can optionally be specified to resources for testing other compatible providers. This propagates to the AWS client configuration. An example is provided below for Minio S3 compatible buckets e.g.

title 'Test For  Minio Buckets Existing at a Custom Endpoint'

endpoint = input(:minio_server, value: 'http://127.0.0.1:9000', description: 'The Minio server custom endpoint.')

control 'minio-buckets-1.0' do
  impact 1.0
  title 'Ensure Minio buckets exist.'

  describe aws_s3_bucket(aws_endpoint: endpoint, bucket_name: 'miniobucket') do
    it { should exist }
  end

  describe aws_s3_bucket(aws_endpoint: endpoint, bucket_name: 'notthere') do
    it { should_not exist }
  end
end

Note that InSpec AWS assumes full compatibility with the underlying AWS SDK and unsupported operations will cause failures. Therefore, depending on the external provider implementation your mileage may vary!

aws_retry_limit and aws_retry_backoff

In certain cases AWS may implement rate limiting. In order to mitigate this issue the Retry Limit and Retry Backoff can be set in two ways:

1) Environment Variables

Setting AWS_RETRY_LIMIT and AWS_RETRY_BACKOFF environment variables will be implemented at session level.

   export AWS_RETRY_LMIIT=5
   export aws_retry_limit=5

Note environment variables are case insensitive.

2) InSpec Control

InSpec AWS resources now support setting the Retry Limit and Retry Backoff at control level as shown below.

  describe aws_config_recorder(recorder_name: aws_config_recorder_name, aws_retry_limit=5, aws_retry_backoff=5) do
    it { should exist }
    its('recorder_name') { should eq aws_config_recorder_name }
  end

#####The aws_retry_limit and aws_retry_backoff precedence:

  1. Set at Inspec control level.
  2. Set at Environment level.

Retry Limit and Retry Backoff documentation

NullResponse

InSpec AWS resources will return NullResponse when an undefined property is tested from version 1.24 onwards instead of raising a NoMethodError.

describe aws_ec2_instance(instance_id: 'i-12345678') do
  its('fake_property') { should be_nil }
end
# =>   EC2 Instance i-12345678
#          ✔  fake_property is expected to be nil

describe aws_ec2_instance(instance_id: 'i-12345678') do
  its('instance_ID') { should eq 'i-12345678' }
end
# =>  ×  instance_ID is expected to eq "i-12345678"    
#     expected: "i-12345678"
#          got: #<#<Class:0x00007ffc4aa24c68>::NullResponse:0x00007ffc39f16070>    
#     (compared using ==)

Prior to version 1.24.

describe aws_ec2_instance(instance_id: 'i-12345678') do
  its('fake_property') { should be_nil }
end
# => EC2 Instance i-12345678
#          ×  fake_property 
#          undefined method `fake_property' for EC2 Instance i-12345678

describe aws_ec2_instance(instance_id: 'i-12345678') do
  its('instance_ID') { should eq 'i-12345678' }
end
# => undefined method `instance_ID' for EC2 Instance i-12345678

Environment and Setup Notes

Train and InSpec Dependencies

InSpec AWS depends on version 3 of the AWS SDK that is provided via Train AWS. InSpec depends on Train AWS so this is not explicitly listed in the Gemfile here.

Running a Sample Profile Using Docker

A Dockerfile is provided in the root of this resource pack repository.

cd inspec-aws
docker build -t inspec-aws -f Dockerfile .
docker run -it inspec-aws /bin/bash
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your creds here>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your creds here>
bundle exec inspec exec sample_profile -t aws://

If successful, output similar to this should be seen:

# bundle exec inspec exec sample_profile -t aws://

To run the full suite of tests run

make doubly_sure

This will run the unit tests, create the target infrastructure and run the intergration tests. If successful, will automatically destroy everything. If it fails it will keep the environment up, testing then can be achieved by running:

make int_test

To keep things simple the aws credentials can either be supplied via environmental variables or files located on ./aws in this folder.

This just requires docker, docker-compose and make, see Three Musketeers Pattern for details

FAQ

Failure running "inspec exec" on my AWS profile

If an error such occurs when running "inspec exec" on a newly created AWS profile, check that the AWS transport is being specified as below:

$ inspec exec . -t aws://

If a method missing error occurs and all the steps documented above have been followed try running the following command within the profile directory:

inspec vendor --overwrite

Support

The InSpec AWS resources are community supported. For bugs and features, please open a github issue and label it appropriately.

Kudos

This work builds on the InSpec 2 AWS resources that were originally shipped as part of InSpec.
