Permission required for create aws backup vault - amazon-iam

TableBackupVault:
Type: AWS::Backup::BackupVault
Properties:
BackupVaultName: tabel-vault
What permission are required for creating backup vault?
I tried these
- Sid: Backup
Effect: Allow
Action:
- backup:CreateBackupVault
- backup:CreateBackupPlan
- backup:CreateBackupSelection
- backup:TagResource
- backup:UntagResource
Resource:
- *
But I am getting
Error:
CREATE_FAILED: BackupVault (AWS::Backup::BackupVault)
Resource handler returned message: "Insufficient privileges to perform this action"

For anyone with this error, you have to add the following iam rule additionnaly:
backup-storage:MountCapsule
As it is required here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-backup/latest/devguide/access-control.html

How to refer autogenerated Role to attach to new IAM policy

I am creating a custom policy to attach it to the IAM role which has been autogenerated by AWS.
Below is the policy:-
rRotationLambdaDecryptPolicy:
Type: AWS::IAM::ManagedPolicy
DependsOn: rSecretRotationScheduleHostedRotationLambda
Properties:
Description: "Providing access to HostedLambda for decrypting KMS"
ManagedPolicyName: CustomedHostedLambdaKmsUserRolePolicy
PolicyDocument:
Version: '2012-10-17'
Statement:
- Sid: AllowLambdaDecryptKMS
Effect: Allow
Action:
- kms:Decrypt
- kms:CreateGrant
Resource:
- !Sub arn:aws:kms:*:${AWS::AccountId}:key/*
Condition:
ForAnyValue:StringLike:
kms:ResourceAliases: alias/SecretsManager_KMSKey
Roles: <friendly rolename>
In Roles parameter , as i am not fully aware of the Rolename, so have been trying to generate it from its arn.
Roles:
- !Select [!Split ["/", !Sub 'arn:aws:iam::${AWS::AccountId}:role/secret-rotat-SecretsManagerRDSPostgre-*']]
but once pushed to cloudformation, getting error as below:-
The specified value for roleName is invalid. It must contain only alphanumeric characters and/or the following: +=,.#_- (Service: AmazonIdentityManagement; Status Code: 400; Error Code: ValidationError; Request ID: fbd4b14e-8c0e-459f-867f-968052828620; Proxy: null)
Not sure what is wrong here, and how can i refer it!
You can't use a wildcard * in the role name.
You would need to save the role name somewhere you can retrieve it (e.g. in Systems Manager Parameter store), or pass it as a parameter in to the template and then !Ref it.
i looked out everywhere, and found that this will be part of next version release of SAM as it requires work to add more attributes to the HostedLambda.
Till the time i managed to retrieve it from jenkins using AWSCLI (by getting the Lambda attributes which has that autogenerated role attached) and then processing it.
aur_rolename=sh(script: """aws lambda get-function --function-name SecretsManager-research-creds-rotation-lambda --query Configuration.Role --output text""", returnStdout: true).trim().split('/')[1]
aur_policyarn="arn:aws:iam::${env.account}:policy/CustomedHostedLambdaKmsUserRolePolicy"
sh(script: """aws iam attach-role-policy --policy-arn ${aur_policyarn} --role-name ${aur_rolename}""", returnStdout: true)

Dynamodb is not authorised to perform dynamodb:PutItem

I'm getting this error while performing PutItem on dynamodb
AccessDeniedException: User: arn:aws:sts::8**************2:assumed-role/AmazonSSMRoleForInstancesQuickSetup/i-0**************2 is not authorized to perform: dynamodb:PutItem on resource: arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-2:8**************2:table/test-dynamodb-table
This is how my permissions.yml file look like.

- 'dynamodb:BatchWrite*'
- 'dynamodb:CreateTable'
- 'dynamodb:Delete*'
- 'dynamodb:Update*'
- 'dynamodb:PutItem'
Resource:
- 'arn:aws:dynamodb:*'
I've given all the required permissions but it's still failing. Any help on this??
According to documentation if you want to add permission for all DynamoDB tables in all regions for specific account you need to write it like this:
"arn:aws:dynamodb:*:123456789012:table/*/"
I assume that you can replace account number with * also, but if that is not working you can put your account number.

Create IAM account with CloudFormation

I want to create an AWS IAMS account that has various permissions with CloudFormation.
I understand there are policies that would let a user change his password and let him get his account to use MFA here
How could I enforce the user to use MFA at first log in time when he needs to change the default password?
This is what I have:
The flow I have so far is:
User account is created
When user tries to log in for the first time is asked to change the default password.
User is logged in the AWS console.
Expected behavior:
User account is created
When user tries to log in for the first time is asked to change the default password and set MFA using Authenticator app.
User is logged in the AWS console and has permissions.
A potential flow is shown here. Is there another way?
Update:
This blog explains the flow
Again, is there a better way? Like an automatic pop up that would enforce the user straight away?
Update2:
I might have not been explicit enough.
What we have so far it is an ok customer experience.
This flow would be fluid
User tries to log in
Console asks for password change
Colsole asks for scanning the code and introducing the codes
User logs in with new password and the code from authenticator
5.User is not able to deactivate MFA
Allow users to self manage MFA is the way to go, if you are using regular IAM. You can try AWS SSO, it's easier to manage and free.
Allowing users to login, change password, setup MFA and Denying everything other than these if MFA is not setup as listed here
We could create an IAM Group with an inline policy and assign users to that group.
This is CF for policy listed in the docs.

MyIamGroup:

- sts:GetSessionToken
Condition:
BoolIfExists:
aws:MultiFactorAuthPresent: "false"
Effect: Deny
Resource: "*"
PolicyName: My-Group-Policy
Groups:
- Ref: MyIamGroup
I think this is the way to go and one could extract the knowledge of creating users with whatever permissions he wants after the user sets up the MFA.
The policy template it is useful.

AWS ALB Ingress Controller with IRSA authorization error

I am trying to setup an AWS ALB Ingress Controller using the IRSA method instead of kube2iam. There is however some lack of documentation so I came to a dead end.
What I did so far:
Configured the OIDC provider for my cluster
eksctl utils associate-iam-oidc-provider --cluster devops --approve
Created the proper policy by using the template
Created the IAM service account that will be used by the Ingress Controller and associated the policy
eksctl create iamserviceaccount --name alb-ingress --namespace default --cluster devops --attach-policy-arn arn:aws:iam::112233445566:policy/eks-ingressController-iam-policy-IngressControllerPolicy-1111111111 --approve
Deployed required rbac rules provided
kubectl apply -f rbac-role.yaml
Deployed the AWS Ingress Controller by using this template. Payed attention so the ServiceAccount matches the service account I created previously.
Everything up to here is deployed fine. Now I try to deploy my Ingress service but I get this error (in the controller logs)
kubebuilder/controller "msg"="Reconciler error" "error"="failed to build LoadBalancer configuration due to failed to get AWS tags. Error: AccessDeniedException: User: arn:aws:sts::1122334455:assumed-role/eksctl-devops-nodegroup-ng-1-work-NodeInstanceRole-J08FDJHIWPI7/i-000000000000 is not authorized to perform: tag:GetResources\n\tstatus code: 400, request id: 94d614a1-c05d-4b92-8ad6-86b450407f6a" "Controller"="alb-ingress-controller" "Request"={"Namespace":"superset","Name":"superset-ingress"}
Obviously the node doesn't have the proper permissions for the ALB creation, and I guess that if I attached my policy to the role stated in the log it would work. But that defeats the whole purpose of doing the IRSA method right?
What I would expect is for the Ingress Controller pod to need the appropriate permissions -by using the service account- to create the ALB and not the Node. Am I missing something here?
I've got a similar error (not identical) when using version v1.1.8 of this controller:
kubebuilder/controller "msg"="Reconciler
error"="failed get
WAFv2 webACL for load balancer arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:...:
AccessDeniedException: User:
arn:aws:sts:::assumed-role/eks-node-group-role/
is not authorized to perform: wafv2:GetWebACLForResource on resource:
arn:aws:wafv2:us-east-2::regional/webacl/*\n\tstatus code:
400, request id: ..."
"controller"="alb-ingress-controller"
"request"={"Namespace":"default","Name":"aws-alb-ingress"}
I'll add it because I think it can help people which search under the same error message.
The reason for the error described above was the fact that version v1.1.7 of this controller needs new IAM permissions in the nodegroup role's *PolicyALBIngress policy.
(!) Be aware that the new IAM permission is required even no wafv2 annotation is used.
Solution 1
Adding the section of wafv2 allow actions to the policy:
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"wafv2:GetWebACL",
"wafv2:GetWebACLForResource",
"wafv2:AssociateWebACL",
"wafv2:DisassociateWebACL"
],
"Resource": "*"
}
Solution 2
WAFV2 support can be disabled by controller flags as mentioned here.
A) If you install it via kubectl, add - --feature-gates=waf=false to the spec -> containers -> args section.
B) If you install it via helm, add --set extraArgs."feature-gates"='waf=false' in helm upgrade command.
Notice that this requirment was already being updated in the eksctl tool (Review also in here).
Additional reference.
So, in case someone comes up to the same problem.
The solution is, when creating the rbac roles, to comment out from the rbac-role.yaml (as provided here) the last part which creates the service account.
Since we already created a service account with eksctl and attached to it the aws policy, we can attach to this service account the rbac permissions also. Then this service account can be used normally in the ingress controller pod to do its magic.
According to the documentation need the permission to CRUD an ALB. You could if you wanted to try giving just the ALB driver Pod a role with permissions create the ALB but I have not tested it and I am not sure it matters, if your entire scheduler has been given access to to use the ALB driver/pod to create these objects on AWS.
I am not using EKS's 3.0's cluster creation tool, instead I have my own CFT that I use to create workers due to my orgs additional security requirements.
I have have created and attached the bellow managed policy to workers that need to create ALB's and it just works.
