humilis-decrypt 0.0.1

Installation

pip install humilis-decrypt

To install the development version:

pip install git+https://github.com/humilis/humilis-decrypt

Development

Assuming you have virtualenv installed:

make develop

Configure humilis:

make configure

How does it work?

First create the Lambda function that backs the custom resource:

make create

The deployment will produce two artifacts:

• The ID of the KMS key associated with the custom resource.

• The ARN of the deployed Lambda function.

You can use the KMS key ID to encrypt your secrets locally, e.g. assuming you want to encrypt the dummy DB password dummy with key 3ea941bf-ee54-4941-8f77-f1dd417667cd:

aws kms encrypt --key-id 3ea941bf-ee54-4941-8f77-f1dd417667cd --plaintext 'dummy'

The output will be something like this:

{
    "CiphertextBlob": "AQICAHi2zdvZYfUQOQV8yX/HLdcIMqHHkubAYAei2Qo498KheQFDELPYHds8169cc9EqggEuAAAAZjBkBgkqhkiG9w0BBwagVzBVAgEAMFAGCSqGSIb3DQEHATAeBglghkgBZQMEAS4wEQQM+gDfP3DDVgbFYNidAgEQgCMrz1beR+s0XqWTVIuCbJ+E/cC7sqUzmPEB0weOhQ3GOE65rg==",
    "KeyId": "arn:aws:kms:eu-west-1:XXXXX:key/a86x4dd8-6b8e-41ce-aa65-4aa370d9ccbf"
}

Whenever you want to use your secret in a CF template you would do something like this:

---
resources:
  DbPasswordDecrypt:
    Type: "Custom::KMSDecrypt"
    Properties:
      ServiceToken: <lambda_function_arn>
      Ciphertext: "AQICAHi2zdvZYfUQOQV8yX/HLdcIMqHHkubAYAei2Qo498KheQFDELPYHds8169cc9EqggEuAAAAZjBkBgkqhkiG9w0BBwagVzBVAgEAMFAGCSqGSIb3DQEHATAeBglghkgBZQMEAS4wEQQM+gDfP3DDVgbFYNidAgEQgCMrz1beR+s0XqWTVIuCbJ+E/cC7sqUzmPEB0weOhQ3GOE65rg=="
  DbInstance:
    Type: "AWS::RDS::DBInstance"
    Properties:
      AllocatedStorage: "20"
      DBInstanceClass: "db.m1.small"
      Engine: "MySQL"
      EngineVersion: "5.5"
      MasterUsername: "admin"
      MasterUserPassword:
        Fn::Sub: ${DbPasswordDecrypt.Plaintext}

where you will need to replace <lambda_function_arn> with the ARN of the Lambda function that backs the custom CF resource that implements the decryption logic.
