Mount local directory to AWS ECS Fargate Container - amazon-web-services

Goal
The goal is to mount a local version of a Github repository to an ECS Fargate container.
Background
Local Machine: MacOs Catalina v10.15.7
The container is configured to use the ECS Exec functionality so that IAM users can interactively run integration tests via the ECS Fargate container. The ECS service isn't constraint to using Fargate and can use EC2 if needed to solve this problem.
Here's the associated VPC configurations:
module "vpc" {
source = "terraform-aws-modules/vpc/aws"
name = local.mut_id
cidr = "10.0.0.0/16"
azs = ["us-west-2a", "us-west-2b", "us-west-2c", "us-west-2d"]
enable_dns_hostnames = true
public_subnets = local.public_subnets
database_subnets = local.database_subnets
}
Attempts
Mount an AWS EFS to the local machine directory then mount EFS onto the ECS container. As a prerequisite to mounting to the EFS, I created a client VPN endpoint associated within the VPC subnet that the ECS and EFS resources are hosted in.
EFS configurations:
resource "aws_efs_file_system" "testing" {
creation_token = local.mut_id
}
resource "aws_efs_mount_target" "testing" {
file_system_id = aws_efs_file_system.testing.id
subnet_id = module.vpc.public_subnets[0]
security_groups = [aws_security_group.testing_efs.id]
}
data "aws_iam_policy_document" "testing_efs" {
statement {
effect = "Allow"
actions = [
"elasticfilesystem:ClientMount",
"elasticfilesystem:ClientWrite",
"elasticfilesystem:ClientRootAccess"
]
principals {
type = "AWS"
identifiers = [data.aws_caller_identity.current.arn]
}
}
}
resource "aws_security_group" "testing_efs" {
name = "${local.mut_id}-integration-testing-efs"
description = "Allows inbound access from testing container"
vpc_id = module.vpc.vpc_id
ingress {
description = "Allows EFS mount point access from testing container"
from_port = 2049
to_port = 2049
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["${chomp(data.http.my_ip.body)}/32"]
}
}
data "http" "my_ip" {
url = "http://ipv4.icanhazip.com"
}
VPN config:
module "testing_vpn" {
source = "DNXLabs/client-vpn/aws"
version = "0.3.0"
cidr = "172.31.0.0/16"
name = local.mut_id
vpc_id = module.vpc.vpc_id
subnet_ids = module.vpc.public_subnets
security_group_id = aws_security_group.testing_vpn.id
split_tunnel = true
}
resource "aws_security_group" "testing_vpn" {
name = "${local.mut_id}-integration-testing-vpn"
description = "Allows inbound VPN connection"
vpc_id = module.vpc.vpc_id
ingress {
description = "Inbound VPN connection"
from_port = 443
protocol = "UDP"
to_port = 443
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
egress {
from_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
to_port = 0
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
}
Here's the related commands used to start the VPN and mount the EFS to the local directory:
client_cfg=$(aws ec2 export-client-vpn-client-configuration --client-vpn-endpoint-id "$vpn_endpoint" --output text)
client_cfg=$(cat <<EOT >> $PWD/client.ovpn
$client_cfg
<cert>
$vpn_cert
</cert>
<key>
$vpn_private_key
</key>
EOT
)
echo "Running OpenVPN"
sudo openvpn --config "$PWD/client.ovpn" --daemon
echo "Mounting to EFS: $local_mount"
mount -t nfs -o nfsvers=4,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,timeo=600,retrans=2,noresvport "$efs_dns":/ "$local_mount"
The command: mount -t nfs -o nfsvers=4,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,timeo=600,retrans=2,noresvport "$efs_dns":/ "$local_mount" results in the error even though the directory exists:
mount: realpath <$local_mount>: No such file or directory
I've also tried running sudo nfsd restart and using the IP address of the EFS mount target like so: mount -t nfs -o nfsvers=4,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,timeo=600,retrans=2,noresvport x.x.x.x:/ "$local_mount" which results in a timeout error.

Reffering the IP of an EC2 Instance to a Inbound Rule Using Terraform

I'm new to Terraform.
I'm trying to create a Security Group that within it's Inbounds Rules one of then grand access to the Bastion Host (located at a public subnet) to Access the NGINX server (located at a private subnet).
Objective: So I can SSH from my machine to the Bastion and then from the Bastion to the NGINX Server
I don't know what method to use, because technically the IP of the Bastion Host will be "created" after I do the Terraform Init.
I was thinking I could user Variables, but honestly I don't know how, do you think I would have to grant an Static IP for the Bastion? So I could "write" the IP at the ingress part of the Security Group HCL code?
I've made some coments on the code bellow. I hope it helps to understand my question.
resource "aws_security_group" "public_sg" {
vpc_id = aws_vpc.vpc_server_nginx.id
ingress { # SSH from my machine Inbound Rule
protocol = "tcp"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
cidr_blocks = ["187.74.121.76/32"]
}
ingress { # SSH from Bastion to NGINX Server Inbound Rule
protocol = "tcp"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
cidr_blocks = [] # How to reffer the IP of the Bastion Host?
}
egress {
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
tags = {
Name = "Segurity Group Name"
}
}
You should use separate security groups for the Nginx server and the Bastion server. Then in the Nginx server's security group, allow access from the Bastion host's security group by specifying the security group ID instead of an IP address in the security group rule.

Unable to connect through SSH

I was trying to deploy an aws ubuntu instance via terraform and I am not able to access it. I want only my ip to be able to access it so this is the code I used for the security group:
resource "aws_security_group" "security" {
name = "security"
description = "Allow TLS inbound traffic"
vpc_id = aws_vpc.my-vpc.id
ingress {
description = "This is SSH"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["here is my ip/32"]}
egress {
description = "Any"
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]}}
The error I get is " Connection timed out"
I tried doing the same thing in AWS Console and still have the same issue.
I have the .pem key and aws credidentials configured.
I tried putty, aws console and <<ssh -i "Main-Key.pem" ubuntu#ec2-3-91-208-57.compute-1.amazonaws.com>> after I did <<chmod 400 Main-Key.pem>> into my WSL Terminal.
Is it possible to show the error output?
are you getting any error for
vpc_id = aws_vpc.my-vpc.id
and
cidr_blocks = ["here is my ip/32"]}

Why is ping timing out from WebServer01 to DBServer?

I have created a Custom VPC using the Terraform code below.
I have applied the Terraform module below, which:
Adds Public and Private Subnets
Configures IGW
Adds NAT Gateway
Adds SGs for both Web and DB Servers
After applying this, I am not able to ping/ssh from public ec2 instance to the private ec2 instance.
Not sure what is missing.

Why is ping timing out from WebServer01 to DBServer?
There are no specific NACLs and the default NACLs are wide open, so they should not be relevant here.
For this to work the security group on DBServer needs to allow egress to the security group of DBServer or to a CIDR that includes it.
aws_instance.DBServer uses aws_security_group.MyDBSG.
aws_instance.WebServer01 uses aws_security_group.WebDMZ.
The egress rules on aws_security_group.WebDMZ are as follows:
egress {
description = "Allows SSH requests for VPC: IPV4"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"] # SSH restricted to my laptop public IP <My PUBLIC IP>/32
}
egress {
description = "Allows HTTP requests for VPC: IPV4"
from_port = 80
to_port = 80
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
egress {
description = "Allows HTTP requests for VPC: IPV6"
from_port = 80
to_port = 80
protocol = "tcp"
ipv6_cidr_blocks = ["::/0"]
}
Those egress rules mean:
Allow SSH to all IPv4 hosts
Allow HTTP to all IPv4 and IPv6 hosts
ICMP isn't listed, so the ICMP echo request will be dropped before it leaves aws_security_group.WebDMZ. This should be visible as a REJECT in the VPC FlowLog for the ENI of aws_instance.WebServer01.
Adding this egress rule to aws_security_group.WebDMZ should fix that:
egress {
description = "Allows ICMP requests: IPV4" # For ping,communication, error reporting etc
from_port = -1
to_port = -1
protocol = "icmp"
cidr_blocks = ["10.0.2.0/24"]
}
DBServer may NOT respond to ICMP, so you may still see timeouts after making this change. Referencing the VPC FlowLog will help determine the difference. If you see ACCEPTs in the VPC FlowLog for the ICMP flows, then the issue is that DBServer doesn't respond to ICMP.
Nothing in aws_security_group.WebDMZ prevents SSH, so the problem with that must be elsewhere.
The ingress rules on aws_security_group.MyDBSG are as follows.
ingress {
description = "Allows ICMP requests: IPV4" # For ping,communication, error reporting etc
from_port = -1
to_port = -1
protocol = "icmp"
cidr_blocks = ["10.0.1.0/24"] # Public Subnet CIDR block, can be "WebDMZ" security group id too as below
security_groups = [aws_security_group.WebDMZ.id] # Tried this as above was not working, but still doesn't work
}
ingress {
description = "Allows SSH requests: IPV4" # You can SSH from WebServer01 to DBServer, using DBServer private ip address and copying private key to WebServer
from_port = 22 # ssh ec2-user#Private Ip Address -i MyPvKey.pem Private Key pasted in MyPvKey.pem
to_port = 22 # Not a good practise to use store private key on WebServer, instead use Bastion Host (Hardened Image, Secure) to connect to Private DB
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["10.0.1.0/24"]
}
Those egress rules mean:
Allow all ICMP from the Public Subnet (10.0.1.0/24)
Allow SSH from the Public Subnet (10.0.1.0/24)
SSH should be working. DBServer likely does not accept SSH connections.
Assuming your DBServer is 10.0.2.123, then if SSH is not running it would look like this from WebServer01 running ssh -v 10.0.2.123:
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 47: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to 10.0.2.123 [10.0.2.123] port 22.
debug1: connect to address 10.0.2.123 port 22: Operation timed out
ssh: connect to host 10.0.2.123 port 22: Operation timed out
Referencing the VPC FlowLog will help determine the difference. If you see ACCEPTs in the VPC FlowLog for the SSH flows, then the issue is that DBServer doesn't accept SSH connections.
Enabling VPC Flow Logs
Since this has changed a few times over the years, I will point you to AWS' own maintained, step by step guide for creating a flow log that publishes to CloudWatch Logs.
I recommend CloudWatch over S3 at the moment since querying using CloudWatch Logs Insights is pretty easy compared to setting up and querying S3 with Athena. You just pick the CloudWatch Log Stream you used for your Flow Log and search for the IPs or ports of interest.
This example CloudWatch Logs Insights query will get the most recent 20 rejects on eni-0123456789abcdef0 (not a real ENI, use the actual ENI ID you are debugging):
fields #timestamp,#message
| sort #timestamp desc
| filter #message like 'eni-0123456789abcdef0'
| filter #message like 'REJECT'
| limit 20
In the VPC Flow Log a missing egress rule shows up as a REJECT on the source ENI.
In the VPC Flow Log a missing ingress rule shows up as a REJECT on the destination ENI.
Security Groups are stateful
Stateless packet filters require you to handle arcane things like the fact that most (not all) OSes use ports 32767-65535 for reply traffic in TCP flows. That's a pain, and it makes NACLs (which a stateless) a huge pain.
A stateful firewall like Security Groups tracks connections (the state in stateful) automatically, so you just need to allow the service port to the destination's SG or IP CIDR block in the source SG's egress rules and from the source SG or IP CIDR block in the destination SG's ingress rules.
Even though Security Groups (SGs) are stateful, they are default deny. This includes the outbound initiated traffic from a source. If a source SG does not allow traffic outbound to a destination, it's not allowed even if the destination has an SG that allows it. This is a common misconception. SG rules are not transitive, they need to be made on both sides.
AWS's Protecting Your Instance with Security Groups video explains this very well and visually.
Aside: Style recommendation
You should use aws_security_group_rule resources instead of inline egress and ingress rules.
NOTE on Security Groups and Security Group Rules: Terraform currently provides both a standalone Security Group Rule resource (a single ingress or egress rule), and a Security Group resource with ingress and egress rules defined in-line. At this time you cannot use a Security Group with in-line rules in conjunction with any Security Group Rule resources. Doing so will cause a conflict of rule settings and will overwrite rules.
Take this old-style aws_security_group with inline rules:
resource "aws_security_group" "WebDMZ" {
name = "WebDMZ"
description = "Allows SSH & HTTP requests"
vpc_id = aws_vpc.MyVPC.id
ingress {
description = "Allows HTTP requests for VPC: IPV4"
from_port = 80
to_port = 80
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"] # You can use Load Balancer
}
egress {
description = "Allows SSH requests for VPC: IPV4"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
}
And replace it with this modern-style aws_security_group with aws_security_group_rule resources for each rule:
resource "aws_security_group" "WebDMZ" {
name = "WebDMZ"
description = "Allows SSH & HTTP requests"
vpc_id = aws_vpc.MyVPC.id
}
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "WebDMZ_HTTP_in" {
security_group_id = aws_security_group.WebDMZ.id
type = "ingress"
description = "Allows HTTP requests for VPC: IPV4"
from_port = 80
to_port = 80
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "WebDMZ_SSH_out" {
security_group_id = aws_security_group.WebDMZ.id
type = "egress"
description = "Allows SSH requests for VPC: IPV4"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
Allowing all outbound rules from "WebDMZ" security group as pasted below resolves the issue.
egress { # Allow allow traffic outbound, THIS WAS THE REASON YOU WAS NOT ABLE TO PING FROM WebServer to DBServer
description = "Allows All Traffic Outbound from Web Server"
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = -1
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}

ALB Health checks Targets Unhealthy

I am trying to provision an ECS cluster using Terraform along with an ALB. The targets come up as Unhealthy. The error code is 502 in the console Health checks failed with these codes: [502]
I checked through the AWS Troubleshooting guide and nothing helped there.
EDIT: I have no services/tasks running on the EC2 containers. Its a vanilla ECS cluster.
Here is my relevant code for the ALB:
# Target Group declaration
resource "aws_alb_target_group" "lb_target_group_somm" {
name = "${var.alb_name}-default"
port = 80
protocol = "HTTP"
vpc_id = "${var.vpc_id}"
deregistration_delay = "${var.deregistration_delay}"
health_check {
path = "/"
port = 80
protocol = "HTTP"
}
lifecycle {
create_before_destroy = true
}
tags = {
Environment = "${var.environment}"
}
depends_on = ["aws_alb.alb"]
}
# ALB Listener with default forward rule
resource "aws_alb_listener" "https_listener" {
load_balancer_arn = "${aws_alb.alb.id}"
port = "80"
protocol = "HTTP"
default_action {
target_group_arn = "${aws_alb_target_group.lb_target_group_somm.arn}"
type = "forward"
}
}
# The ALB has a security group with ingress rules on TCP port 80 and egress rules to anywhere.
# There is a security group rule for the EC2 instances that allows ingress traffic to the ECS cluster from the ALB:
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "alb_to_ecs" {
type = "ingress"
/*from_port = 32768 */
from_port = 80
to_port = 65535
protocol = "TCP"
source_security_group_id = "${module.alb.alb_security_group_id}"
security_group_id = "${module.ecs_cluster.ecs_instance_security_group_id}"
}
Has anyone hit this error and know how to debug/fix this ?
It looks like you're trying to be register the ECS cluster instances with the ALB target group. This isn't how you're meant to send traffic to an ECS service via an ALB.
Instead you should have your service join the tasks to the target group. This will mean that if you are using host networking then only the instances with the task deployed will be registered. If you are using bridge networking then it will add the ephemeral ports used by your task to your target group (including allowing for there to be multiple targets on a single instance). And if you are using awsvpc networking then it will register the ENIs of every task that the service spins up.
To do this you should use the load_balancer block in the aws_ecs_service resource. An example might look something like this:
resource "aws_ecs_service" "mongo" {
name = "mongodb"
cluster = "${aws_ecs_cluster.foo.id}"
task_definition = "${aws_ecs_task_definition.mongo.arn}"
desired_count = 3
iam_role = "${aws_iam_role.foo.arn}"
load_balancer {
target_group_arn = "${aws_lb_target_group.lb_target_group_somm.arn}"
container_name = "mongo"
container_port = 8080
}
}
If you were using bridge networking this would mean that the tasks are accessible on the ephemeral port range on the instances so your security group rule would need to look like this:
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "alb_to_ecs" {
type = "ingress"
from_port = 32768 # ephemeral port range for bridge networking tasks
to_port = 60999 # cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
protocol = "TCP"
source_security_group_id = "${module.alb.alb_security_group_id}"
security_group_id = "${module.ecs_cluster.ecs_instance_security_group_id}"
}
it looks like the http://ecsInstanceIp:80 is not returning HTTP 200 OK. I would check that first. It would be easy to check if the instance is public. It wont be the case most of the times. Otherwise I would create an EC2 instance and make a curl request to confirm that.
You may also check the container logs to see if its logging the health check response.
Hope this helps. good luck.

terraform aws ec2 ssh

I have this terraform script:
provider "aws" {
region = "us-weast-1"
}
resource "aws_security_group" "allow_all" {
name = "allow_all"
description = "Allow all inbound traffic"
ingress {
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
egress {
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
vpc_id = "vpc-154c1701"
}
resource "aws_instance" "wso2-testing" {
ami = "ami-0f9cf087c1f27d9b1"
instance_type = "t2.small"
key_name = "mykeypair"
vpc_security_group_ids = ["${aws_security_group.allow_all.id}"]
}
The machine is created correctly, but i canĀ“t connect to ec2 instance using my key pair with ssh.
Always i have the error:
ssh: connect to host x.x.x.x port 22: Operation timed out

You can add your own IP to security group using below snippet:
data "http" "myip"{
url = "https://ipv4.icanhazip.com"
}
ingress {
# TCP (change to whatever ports you need)
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
# Please restrict your ingress to only necessary IPs and ports.
# Opening to 0.0.0.0/0 can lead to security vulnerabilities.
cidr_blocks = ["${chomp(data.http.myip.body)}/32"]
}
egress {
# Outbound traffic is set to all
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
You need to add your own IP into inbound rule of your security group.
