Use AWS Config to detect outdated access keys

In the following page, Introduction to AWS Config, we showed you how to audit the logging settings of S3 buckets.

This page shows how to detect old access keys that have not been rotated using a similar technique.

Environment

Diagram of using AWS Config to detect outdated access keys.

Create a rule in AWS Config to audit access keys.

If a key is detected that is past a certain number of days, it will be non-compliant.
This time the deadline is 90 days.

Create one S3 bucket.
This bucket is used for AWS Config to work.
This bucket stores data about the configuration and modification status of AWS resources.

CloudFormation template files

The above configuration is built with CloudFormation.
The CloudFormation templates are placed at the following URL

Explanation of key points of template files

This page focuses on how to use AWS Config to detect old, non-rotated access keys.

For more information on how to audit resources using AWS Config, please see the following page.

S3

Resources:
  ConfigBucket:
    Type: AWS::S3::Bucket
    Properties:
      BucketName: !Ref Prefix
      AccessControl: Private
        
  ConfigBucketPolicy:
    Type: AWS::S3::BucketPolicy
    Properties:
      Bucket: !Ref ConfigBucket
      PolicyDocument:
        Statement:
          - Principal:
              Service: config.amazonaws.com
            Action: s3:GetBucketAcl
            Effect: Allow
            Resource: !Sub "arn:aws:s3:::${ConfigBucket}"
            Condition:
              StringLike:
                AWS:SourceAccount: !Ref AWS::AccountId
          - Principal:
              Service: config.amazonaws.com
            Action: s3:ListBucket
            Effect: Allow
            Resource: !Sub "arn:aws:s3:::${ConfigBucket}"
            Condition:
              StringLike:
                AWS:SourceAccount: !Ref AWS::AccountId
          - Principal:
              Service: config.amazonaws.com
            Action: s3:PutObject
            Effect: Allow
            Resource: !Sub "arn:aws:s3:::${ConfigBucket}/*"
            Condition:
              StringLike:
                s3:x-amz-acl: bucket-owner-full-control
                AWS:SourceAccount: !Ref AWS::AccountId
Code language: YAML (yaml)

Bucket for AWS Config delivery channel.

No special configuration is required for the bucket. On the other hand, you can define a bucket policy to allow various accesses from AWS Config.

AWS Config

Delivery Channel

Resources:
  DeliveryChannel:
    Type: AWS::Config::DeliveryChannel
    Properties: 
      Name: !Sub "${Prefix}-DeliveryChannel"
      S3BucketName: !Ref ConfigBucket
Code language: YAML (yaml)

Designate the aforementioned bucket as the delivery channel.

Configuration Recorder

Resources:
  ConfigurationRecorder:
    Type: AWS::Config::ConfigurationRecorder
    Properties: 
      Name: !Sub "${Prefix}-ConfigurationRecorder"
      RecordingGroup: 
        AllSupported: true
        IncludeGlobalResourceTypes: true
      RoleARN: !Sub "arn:aws:iam::${AWS::AccountId}:role/aws-service-role/config.amazonaws.com/${AWSServiceRoleForConfig}"
        
  AWSServiceRoleForConfig:
    Type: AWS::IAM::ServiceLinkedRole
    DeletionPolicy: Delete
    Properties: 
      AWSServiceName: config.amazonaws.com
Code language: YAML (yaml)

When auditing against a global resource such as an access key, the AllSupported/IncludeGlobalResourceTypes property is key, as in the following quote

Specifies whether AWS Config includes all supported types of global resources (for example, IAM resources) with the resources that it records.

Before you can set this option to true, you must set the AllSupported option to true.

AWS::Config::ConfigurationRecorder RecordingGroup

Set both properties to “true” according to the above.

AWS Config Rule

Resources:
  ConfigRule:
    Type: AWS::Config::ConfigRule
    DependsOn:
      - ConfigurationRecorder
    Properties: 
      ConfigRuleName: !Sub "${Prefix}-IAM-Access-Keys-Rotated"
      InputParameters:
        maxAccessKeyAge: 90
      Source: 
        Owner: AWS
        SourceIdentifier: ACCESS_KEYS_ROTATED
Code language: YAML (yaml)

The managed rule access-key-rotated can be used to detect old access keys that have not been rotated.

access-keys-rotated - AWS Config
Checks whether the active access keys are rotated within the number of days specified in maxAccessKeyAge. The rule is non-compliant if the access keys have not ...

Specify “ACCESS_KEYS_ROTATED” for the SourceIdentifier property.

This rule also takes the following parameters

maxAccessKeyAge

Type: int

Default: 90

Maximum number of days without rotation.

access-keys-rotated

Set the InputParameters property in the format “maxAccessKeyAge: 90”.

Architecting

Use CloudFormation to build this environment and check its actual behavior.

Create CloudFormation stacks and check the resources in the stacks

Create CloudFormation stacks.
For information on how to create stacks and check each stack, please see the following page.

After reviewing the resources in each stack, information on the main resources created in this case is as follows

  • AWS Config rule: fa-131-IAM-Access-Keys-Rotated

Check the created resource from the AWS Management Console.

Check the basic settings in AWS Config.

Detail of AWS Config 1.

We can see that all resources, including global resources, are targeted by the recorder.
We also see that the aforementioned S3 bucket is specified as the destination.

Operation Check

Now that you are ready, check the audit results of the AWS Config rules.

Detail of AWS Config 2.

You can confirm that the rule has been successfully created.

One IAM user is listed as non-compliant with this rule.

Check this user’s details.

Detail of AWS Config 3.

It is true that the access key is past due (90 days).

Thus, AWS Config can be used to detect old access keys that have not been rotated.

Summary

We have identified a way to detect old access keys that have not been rotated.
