Description

This rule pertains to the specification of principals in the policy of S3 buckets in AWS. The principal is a crucial aspect of any AWS policy as it defines who is allowed to access the resource, in this case, the S3 bucket. It is important because specifying a broad principal such as ‘*’ opens the bucket to access from any AWS account, which can be a serious security risk.

Non-compliance with this rule can lead to unauthorized access to your S3 buckets and potential data breaches. You should always specify a principal that is as narrow as possible to limit access to only those entities that absolutely need it.

To adhere to this rule, ensure that you specify a specific AWS Amazon Resource Name (ARN) instead of using a wildcard (’*’). This way, you grant access only to the specified AWS account or user. For instance, instead of Principal = { AWS = "*" }, use Principal = { AWS = ["arn:aws:iam::something:user"] }. This helps you maintain the security of your AWS resources while ensuring that only authorized entities have access.

Non-Compliant Code Examples

resource "aws_s3_bucket_policy" "mypolicy" {
  bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mybucket.id
  policy = jsonencode({
    Id = "something"
    Version = "2012-10-17"
    Statement = [{
            Effect = "Allow"
            Principal = {
                AWS = "*"
            }
            Action = [
                "s3:PutObject"
            ]
            Resource: "${aws_s3_bucket.mybucket.arn}/*"
        }
    ]
  })
}

Compliant Code Examples

resource "aws_s3_bucket_policy" "mypolicy" {
  bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mybucket.id
  policy = jsonencode({
    Id = "something"
    Version = "2012-10-17"
    Statement = [{
            Effect = "Allow"
            Principal = {
                AWS = [
                    "arn:aws:iam::something:user"
                ]
            }
            Action = [
                "s3:PutObject"
            ]
            Resource: "${aws_s3_bucket.mybucket.arn}/*"
        }
    ]
  })
}
