STS Lite provides access to a set of temporary credentials for +Identity and Access Management. + +STS authentication mechanism has been integrated with Keystone in Ceph Object +Gateway. A set of temporary security credentials is returned after authenticating +a set of AWS credentials with Keystone. These temporary credentials can be used +to make subsequent S3 calls which will be authenticated by the STS engine, +resulting in less load on the Keystone server. + +STS Lite REST APIs +================== + +The following STS Lite REST APIs have been implemented in Ceph Object Gateway: + +1. GetSessionToken: Returns a set of temporary credentials for a set of AWS +credentials. This API can be used for initial authentication with Keystone +and the temporary credentials returned can be used to make subsequent S3 +calls. The temporary credentials will have the same permission as that of the +AWS credentials. + +Parameters: + **DurationSeconds** (Integer/ Optional): The duration in seconds for which the + credentials should remain valid. Its default value is 3600. Its default max + value is 43200 which is can be configured using rgw sts max session duration. + + **SerialNumber** (String/ Optional): The Id number of the MFA device associated + with the user making the GetSessionToken call. + + **TokenCode** (String/ Optional): The value provided by the MFA device, if MFA is required. + +An end user needs to attach a policy to allow invocation of GetSessionToken API using its permanent +credentials and to allow subsequent s3 operations invocation using only the temporary credentials returned +by GetSessionToken. +The following is an example of attaching the policy to a user 'TESTER1':: + + s3curl.pl --debug --id admin -- -s -v -X POST "http://localhost:8000/?Action=PutUserPolicy&PolicyName=Policy1&UserName=TESTER1&PolicyDocument=\{\"Version\":\"2012-10-17\",\"Statement\":\[\{\"Effect\":\"Deny\",\"Action\":\"s3:*\",\"Resource\":\[\"*\"\],\"Condition\":\{\"BoolIfExists\":\{\"sts:authentication\":\"false\"\}\}\},\{\"Effect\":\"Allow\",\"Action\":\"sts:GetSessionToken\",\"Resource\":\"*\",\"Condition\":\{\"BoolIfExists\":\{\"sts:authentication\":\"false\"\}\}\}\]\}&Version=2010-05-08" + +The user attaching the policy needs to have admin caps. For example:: + + radosgw-admin caps add --uid="TESTER" --caps="user-policy=*" + +2. AssumeRole: Returns a set of temporary credentials that can be used for +cross-account access. The temporary credentials will have permissions that are +allowed by both - permission policies attached with the Role and policy attached +with the AssumeRole API. + +Parameters: + **RoleArn** (String/ Required): ARN of the Role to Assume. + + **RoleSessionName** (String/ Required): An Identifier for the assumed role + session. + + **Policy** (String/ Optional): An IAM Policy in JSON format. + + **DurationSeconds** (Integer/ Optional): The duration in seconds of the session. + Its default value is 3600. + + **ExternalId** (String/ Optional): A unique Id that might be used when a role is + assumed in another account. + + **SerialNumber** (String/ Optional): The Id number of the MFA device associated + with the user making the AssumeRole call. + + **TokenCode** (String/ Optional): The value provided by the MFA device, if the + trust policy of the role being assumed requires MFA. + + +STS Lite Configuration +====================== + +The following configurable options are available for STS Lite integration:: + + [client.radosgw.gateway] + rgw sts key = {sts key for encrypting the session token} + rgw s3 auth use sts = true + +The above STS configurables can be used with the Keystone configurables if one +needs to use STS Lite in conjunction with Keystone. The complete set of +configurable options will be:: + + [client.radosgw.gateway] + rgw sts key = {sts key for encrypting/ decrypting the session token} + rgw s3 auth use sts = true + + rgw keystone url = {keystone server url:keystone server admin port} + rgw keystone admin project = {keystone admin project name} + rgw keystone admin tenant = {keystone service tenant name} + rgw keystone admin domain = {keystone admin domain name} + rgw keystone api version = {keystone api version} + rgw keystone implicit tenants = {true for private tenant for each new user} + rgw keystone admin password = {keystone service tenant user name} + rgw keystone admin user = keystone service tenant user password} + rgw keystone accepted roles = {accepted user roles} + rgw keystone token cache size = {number of tokens to cache} + rgw keystone revocation interval = {number of seconds before checking revoked tickets} + rgw s3 auth use keystone = true + rgw nss db path = {path to nss db} + +Note: By default, STS and S3 APIs co-exist in the same namespace, and both S3 +and STS APIs can be accessed via the same endpoint in Ceph Object Gateway. + +Example showing how to Use STS Lite with Keystone +================================================= + +The following are the steps needed to use STS Lite with Keystone. Boto 3.x has +been used to write an example code to show the integration of STS Lite with +Keystone. + +1. Generate EC2 credentials : + +.. code-block:: javascript + + openstack ec2 credentials create + +------------+--------------------------------------------------------+ + | Field | Value | + +------------+--------------------------------------------------------+ + | access | b924dfc87d454d15896691182fdeb0ef | + | links | {u'self': u'http://192.168.0.15/identity/v3/users/ | + | | 40a7140e424f493d8165abc652dc731c/credentials/ | + | | OS-EC2/b924dfc87d454d15896691182fdeb0ef'} | + | project_id | c703801dccaf4a0aaa39bec8c481e25a | + | secret | 6a2142613c504c42a94ba2b82147dc28 | + | trust_id | None | + | user_id | 40a7140e424f493d8165abc652dc731c | + +------------+--------------------------------------------------------+ + +2. Use the credentials created in the step 1. to get back a set of temporary + credentials using GetSessionToken API. + +.. code-block:: python + + import boto3 + + access_key = <ec2 access key> + secret_key = <ec2 secret key> + + client = boto3.client('sts', + aws_access_key_id=access_key, + aws_secret_access_key=secret_key, + endpoint_url=<STS URL>, + region_name='', + ) + + response = client.get_session_token( + DurationSeconds=43200 + ) + +3. The temporary credentials obtained in step 2. can be used for making S3 calls: + +.. code-block:: python + + s3client = boto3.client('s3', + aws_access_key_id = response['Credentials']['AccessKeyId'], + aws_secret_access_key = response['Credentials']['SecretAccessKey'], + aws_session_token = response['Credentials']['SessionToken'], + endpoint_url=<S3 URL>, + region_name='') + + bucket = s3client.create_bucket(Bucket='my-new-shiny-bucket') + response = s3client.list_buckets() + for bucket in response["Buckets"]: + print "{name}\t{created}".format( + name = bucket['Name'], + created = bucket['CreationDate'], + ) + +4. The following is an example of AssumeRole API call: + +.. code-block:: python + + import boto3 + + access_key = <ec2 access key> + secret_key = <ec2 secret key> + + client = boto3.client('sts', + aws_access_key_id=access_key, + aws_secret_access_key=secret_key, + endpoint_url=<STS URL>, + region_name='', + ) + + response = client.assume_role( + RoleArn='arn:aws:iam:::role/application_abc/component_xyz/S3Access', + RoleSessionName='Bob', + DurationSeconds=3600 + ) + + +Note: A role 'S3Access', needs to be created before calling the AssumeRole API. + +Limitations and Workarounds +=========================== + +1. Keystone currently supports only S3 requests, hence in order to successfully +authenticate an STS request, the following workaround needs to be added to boto +to the following file - botocore/auth.py + +Lines 13-16 have been added as a workaround in the code block below: + +.. code-block:: python + + class SigV4Auth(BaseSigner): + """ + Sign a request with Signature V4. + """ + REQUIRES_REGION = True + + def __init__(self, credentials, service_name, region_name): + self.credentials = credentials + # We initialize these value here so the unit tests can have + # valid values. But these will get overriden in ``add_auth`` + # later for real requests. + self._region_name = region_name + if service_name == 'sts': + self._service_name = 's3' + else: + self._service_name = service_name + |
