Do not expose the AWS role external id in the logs

Open iul1an opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Description

This change conceals the AWS ExternalId from application logs to mitigate security risks, as exposing this identifier could enable attackers to exploit it for unauthorized cross-account access or privilege escalation.

Fixes https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/external-dns/issues/4277

Checklist

  • [ ] Unit tests updated
  • [ ] End user documentation updated

Hi @iul1an. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.

debug logs enable the user to figure out if the role id is wrong or something like that, so seems fine. Thanks for the contribution
