Issue while adding AWS Security Group via Terraform - amazon-web-services

I am adding security group via terraform, and after terraform apply the SG is successfully made but when i go and check on AWS portal only the ingress rule is updated and not the egress rule.
vpc_id = var.vpc_id
name = "${var.env_code}-testsg"
description = "Test SG"
ingress {
from_port = 8080
to_port = 8080
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["10.0.0.0/8"]
description = "Incoming traffic "
}
egress {
from_port = 8000
to_port = 8000
protocol = "tcp"
description = "Outbound traffic "
}
Any suggestions what can be done to resolve this ?

Your egress is missing a destination, such as cidr_blocks or security_groups, thus it is invalid. To fix that, you need some destination for the rule to apply, e.g.:
egress {
from_port = 8000
to_port = 8000
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
description = "Outbound traffic "
}

Unable to change 'Type' in security group rule

I am trying to update security group inbound rules with desired IPs and select 'Type' as 'MSSQL', with my terraform, the rules are getting added with 'Custom TCP' type. below is my tf sec grp construct
resource "aws_security_group" "global_protect_db" {
name = "${local.service_name}-vpn_${var.traffic_port_db}"
description = "HTTPS"
vpc_id = data.aws_vpc.systems-tools-vpc.id
egress {
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
from_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
to_port = 0
}
ingress {
cidr_blocks = concat(local.sg_split, formatlist(local.cidr))
description = "SQL"
from_port = 1443
protocol = "tcp"
to_port = 1443
}
ingress {
description = "SQL from service"
from_port = 1443
protocol = "tcp"
to_port = 1443
security_groups = [aws_security_group.service.id]
}
}
Both these ingress rules should add IPs with type as 'MSSQL'. What change should be done?
The default port for MSSQL is 1433, not 1443. This will explain why you have issues with the SG and possibly connections.

How to create an aws security group rule allowing RDP ports from anywhere using terraform?

I need to create aws security group rule resource aws_security_group_rule, attach it to AWS EC2 Windows instance and be able to RDP into it from anywhere.
sg.tf
resource "aws_security_group" "My_VPC_Security_Group" {
vpc_id = aws_vpc.My_VPC.id
name = "My VPC Security Group"
description = "My VPC Security Group"
}
You could use the following where 3389 is default RDP port:
resource "aws_security_group" "My_VPC_Security_Group" {
vpc_id = aws_vpc.My_VPC.id
name = "My VPC Security Group"
description = "My VPC Security Group"
ingress {
from_port = 3389
to_port = 3389
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
egress {
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
The below code worked for me, which creates security group rules using aws_security_group_rule as I wanted.
resource "aws_security_group" "My_VPC_Security_Group" {
vpc_id = aws_vpc.My_VPC.id
name = "My VPC Security Group"
description = "My VPC Security Group"
}
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "ingress_rule" {
type = "ingress"
from_port = 3389
to_port = 3389
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
security_group_id = aws_security_group.My_VPC_Security_Group.id
}
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "egress_rule" {
type = "egress"
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
security_group_id = aws_security_group.My_VPC_Security_Group.id
}

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.

AWS Account Bandwidth ussage getting high

I have creating t2.micro instance using following security group in terraform.
Allow 80 Port
resource "aws_security_group" "access-http" {
name = "Allow-80"
description = "Allow 80 inbound traffic"
ingress {
from_port = 80
to_port = 80
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
}
Allow 8080 Port
resource "aws_security_group" "access-http-web" {
name = ""
description = "Allow 8080 inbound traffic"
ingress {
from_port = 8080
to_port = 8080
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
}
Allow 22 Port
resource "aws_security_group" "access-ssh" {
name = "Access-ssh"
ingress {
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
ingress {
from_port = 1194
to_port = 1194
protocol = "udp"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
}
If any security issue came in due this security group. I have used Network(VPC) and Subnet option is default selected one. Please advise me.
If this was me I would terminate the instance and create a new one. When you create the "Allow 22 Port" security group you should make sure the source address is your current IP address. If your public (home/office) IP address is dynamic then you will need to check each time you connect and update it in the Security Group via the console if it has changed.

Cycle error when trying to create AWS VPC security groups using Terraform

I want to create 2 VPC security groups.
One for the Bastion host of the VPC and one for the Private subnet.
# BASTION #
resource "aws_security_group" "VPC-BastionSG" {
name = "VPC-BastionSG"
description = "The sec group for the Bastion instance"
vpc_id = "aws_vpc.VPC.id"
ingress {
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
cidr_blocks = ["my.super.ip/32"]
}
egress {
# Access to the Private subnet from the bastion host[ssh]
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-PrivateSG.id}"]
}
egress {
# Access to the Private subnet from the bastion host[jenkins]
from_port = 8686
to_port = 8686
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-PrivateSG.id}"]
}
tags = {
Name = "VPC-BastionSG"
}
}
# PRIVATE #
resource "aws_security_group" "VPC-PrivateSG" {
name = "VPC-PrivateSG"
description = "The sec group for the private subnet"
vpc_id = "aws_vpc.VPC.id"
ingress {
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-BastionSG.id}"]
}
ingress {
from_port = 80
to_port = 80
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-PublicSG.id}"]
}
ingress {
from_port = 443
to_port = 443
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-PublicSG.id}"]
}
ingress {
from_port = 3306
to_port = 3306
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-PublicSG.id}"]
}
ingress {
from_port = 8686
to_port = 8686
protocol = "tcp"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.VPC-BastionSG.id}"]
}
ingress {
# ALL TRAFFIC from the same subnet
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
self = true
}
egress {
# ALL TRAFFIC to outside world
from_port = 0
to_port = 0
protocol = "-1"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
tags = {
Name = "VPC-PrivateSG"
}
}
When I terraform plan it, this error is returned:
**`Error configuring: 1 error(s) occurred:
* Cycle: aws_security_group.VPC-BastionSG, aws_security_group.VPC-PrivateSG`**
If I comment out the ingress rules for the BastionSG from the PrivateSG the plan executes fine.
Also, if I comment out the egress rules for the PrivateSG from the BastionSG it also executes fine.
The AWS Scenario 2 for building a VPC with Public/Private subnets and Bastion host describes the architecture I am trying to setup.
I have the exact same settings configured via the AWS console and it plays fine.
Why isn't Terraform accepting it?
Is there another way to connect the Bastion security group with the Private security group?
EDIT
As I understand there is a circular reference between the two sec groups that somehow needs to break even though in AWS it is valid.
So, I thought of allowing all outbound traffic (0.0.0.0/0) from the Bastion sec group and not specifying it to individual security groups.
Would it have a bad security impact?
Terraform attempts to build a dependency chain for all of the resources defined in the folder that it is working on. Doing this enables it to work out if it needs to build things in a specific order and is pretty key to how it all works.
Your example is going to fail because you have a cyclic dependency (as Terraform helpfully points out) where each security group is dependent on the other one being created already.
Sometimes these can be tricky to solve and may mean you need to rethink what you're trying to do (as you mention, one option would be to simply allow all egress traffic out from the bastion host and only restrict the ingress traffic on the private instances) but in this case you have the option of using the aws_security_group_rule resource in combination with the aws_security_group resource.
This means we can define empty security groups with no rules in them at first which we can then use as targets for the security group rules we create for the groups.
A quick example might look something like this:
resource "aws_security_group" "bastion" {
name = "bastion"
description = "Bastion security group"
}
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "bastion-to-private-ssh-egress" {
type = "egress"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
security_group_id = "${aws_security_group.bastion.id}"
source_security_group_id = "${aws_security_group.private.id}"
}
resource "aws_security_group" "private" {
name = "private"
description = "Private security group"
}
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "private-from-bastion-ssh-ingress" {
type = "ingress"
from_port = 22
to_port = 22
protocol = "tcp"
security_group_id = "${aws_security_group.private.id}"
source_security_group_id = "${aws_security_group.bastion.id}"
}
Now, Terraform can see that the dependency chain says that both security groups must be created before either of those security group rules as both of them are dependent on the groups already having been created.
