Amazon EKS Pod Identity Webhook

This webhook is for mutating pods that will require AWS IAM access.

Note

After version v0.3.0, --in-cluster=true no longer works and is deprecated. Please use --in-cluster=false and manage the cluster certificate with cert-manager or some other external certificate provisioning system. This is because certificates using the legacy-unknown signer are no longer signed when using the v1 certificates API.

EKS Walkthrough

  1. Create an OIDC provider in IAM for your cluster. You can find the OIDC discovery endpoint by describing your EKS cluster.
    aws eks describe-cluster --name $CLUSTER_NAME --query cluster.identity.oidc
    And enter "sts.amazonaws.com" as the client-id
  2. Create an IAM role for your pods and modify the trust policy to allow your pod's service account to use the role:
    {
     "Version": "2012-10-17",
     "Statement": [
      {
       "Effect": "Allow",
       "Principal": {
        "Federated": "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:oidc-provider/oidc.REGION.eks.amazonaws.com/CLUSTER_ID"
       },
       "Action": "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity",
       "Condition": {
        "__doc_comment": "scope the role to the service account (optional)",
        "StringEquals": {
         "oidc.REGION.eks.amazonaws.com/CLUSTER_ID:sub": "system:serviceaccount:default:my-serviceaccount"
        },
        "__doc_comment": "scope the role to a namespace (optional)",
        "StringLike": {
         "oidc.REGION.eks.amazonaws.com/CLUSTER_ID:sub": "system:serviceaccount:default:*"
        }
       }
      }
     ]
    }
  3. Modify your pod's service account to be annotated with the ARN of the role you want the pod to use
    apiVersion: v1
    kind: ServiceAccount
    metadata:
      name: my-serviceaccount
      namespace: default
      annotations:
        eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/s3-reader"
        # optional: Defaults to "sts.amazonaws.com" if not set
        eks.amazonaws.com/audience: "sts.amazonaws.com"
        # optional: When set to "true", adds AWS_STS_REGIONAL_ENDPOINTS env var
        #   to containers
        eks.amazonaws.com/sts-regional-endpoints: "true"
        # optional: Defaults to 86400 for expirationSeconds if not set
        #   Note: This value can be overwritten if specified in the pod 
        #         annotation as shown in the next step.
        eks.amazonaws.com/token-expiration: "86400"
  4. All new pod pods launched using this Service Account will be modified to use IAM for pods. Below is an example pod spec with the environment variables and volume fields added by the webhook.
    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Pod
    metadata:
      name: my-pod
      namespace: default
      annotations:
        # optional: A comma-separated list of initContainers and container names
        #   to skip adding volumes and environment variables
        eks.amazonaws.com/skip-containers: "init-first,sidecar"
        # optional: Defaults to 86400, or value specified in ServiceAccount
        #   annotation as shown in previous step, for expirationSeconds if not set
        eks.amazonaws.com/token-expiration: "86400"
    spec:
      serviceAccountName: my-serviceaccount
      initContainers:
      - name: init-first
        image: container-image:version
      containers:
      - name: sidecar
        image: container-image:version
      - name: container-name
        image: container-image:version
    ### Everything below is added by the webhook ###
        env:
        - name: AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
          value: us-west-2
        - name: AWS_REGION
          value: us-west-2
        - name: AWS_ROLE_ARN
          value: "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/s3-reader"
        - name: AWS_WEB_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE
          value: "/var/run/secrets/eks.amazonaws.com/serviceaccount/token"
        - name: AWS_STS_REGIONAL_ENDPOINTS
          value: "regional"
        volumeMounts:
        - mountPath: "/var/run/secrets/eks.amazonaws.com/serviceaccount/"
          name: aws-token
      volumes:
      - name: aws-token
        projected:
          sources:
          - serviceAccountToken:
              audience: "sts.amazonaws.com"
              expirationSeconds: 86400
              path: token

Usage with Windows container workloads

To ensure workloads are scheduled on windows nodes have the right environment variables, they must have a nodeSelector targeting windows it must run on. Workloads targeting windows nodes using nodeAffinity are currently not supported.

  nodeSelector:
    beta.kubernetes.io/os: windows

Or for Kubernetes 1.14+

  nodeSelector:
    kubernetes.io/os: windows

Usage with non-root container user

When running a container with a non-root user, you need to give the container access to the token file by setting the fsGroup field in the securityContext object.

AWS_DEFAULT_REGION Injection

When the aws-default-region flag is set this webhook will inject AWS_DEFAULT_REGION and AWS_REGION in mutated containers if AWS_DEFAULT_REGION and AWS_REGION are not already set.

AWS_STS_REGIONAL_ENDPOINTS Injection

When the sts-regional-endpoint flag is set to true, the webhook will inject the environment variable AWS_STS_REGIONAL_ENDPOINTS with the value set to regional. This environment variable will configure the AWS SDKs to perform the sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity call to get credentials from the regional endpoint, instead of the global endpoint in us-east-1. This is desirable in almost all cases, unless the STS regional endpoint is disabled in your account.

You can also enable this per-service account with the annotation eks.amazonaws.com/sts-regional-endpoints set to "true".

Container Images

Container images for amazon-eks-pod-identity-webhook can be found on Docker Hub.

Installation

In-cluster

You can use the provided configuration files in the deploy directory, along with the provided Makefile

make cluster-up IMAGE=amazon/amazon-eks-pod-identity-webhook:latest

This will:

  • Create a service account, role, cluster-role, role-binding, and cluster-role-binding that will the deployment requires
  • Create the deployment, service, and mutating webhook in the cluster
  • Approve the CSR that the deployment created for its TLS serving certificate

For self-hosted API server configuration, see see SELF_HOSTED_SETUP.md

On API server

TODO

Notes

With the upgrade to client-go 1.18, certificate_manager_server_expiration_seconds metric has been removed by an upstream commit kubernetes/kubernetes#85874. A new metric certificate_manager_server_rotation_seconds is added which tracks the time a certificate was valid before getting rotated.
