Terraform InSpec Provisioner Plugin

InSpec Terraform Provisioner

The InSpec provisioner executes InSpec during the terraform apply run. It supports verifying:

• instances
• cloud platforms like azure, aws, digitalocean or gcp

Note: This is an early project and is not working on Windows environments yet. Coming soon.

Installation

One-Liner Install (Linux)

mkdir -p ~/.terraform.d/plugins/
curl -L -s https://api.github.com/repos/inspec/terraform-provisioner-inspec/releases/latest \
  | grep --color=none browser_download_url \
  | grep --color=none Linux_x86_64 \
  | cut -d '"' -f 4 \

Linux

mkdir -p ~/.terraform.d/plugins/
curl -L https://github.com/inspec/terraform-provisioner-inspec/releases/download/0.1.0/terraform-provisioner-inspec_0.1.0_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz -o terraform-provisioner-inspec.tar.gz
tar -xvzf terraform-provisioner-inspec.tar.gz -C ~/.terraform.d/plugins/

Mac

mkdir -p ~/.terraform.d/plugins/
curl -L https://github.com/inspec/terraform-provisioner-inspec/releases/download/0.1.0/terraform-provisioner-inspec_0.1.0_Darwin_x86_64.tar.gz -o terraform-provisioner-inspec.tar.gz
tar -xvzf terraform-provisioner-inspec.tar.gz -C ~/.terraform.d/plugins/

Build the provisioner plugin

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/inspec/terraform-provisioner-inspec

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/inspec; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/inspec
$ git clone [email protected]:inspec/terraform-provisioner-inspec

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/inspec/terraform-provisioner-inspec
$ dep ensure
# build on linux
$ make build/linux
# build on macos
$ make build/darwin

Targets

The provisionier can be uses with any instance. E.g for AWS the following runs InSpec and verifies the security with the DevSec baselines.

Instances

resource "aws_instance" "web" {
  connection {
    user = "ubuntu"
  }

  instance_type = "t2.micro"
  ami = "${lookup(var.aws_amis, var.aws_region)}"
  key_name = "chartmann"
  vpc_security_group_ids = ["${aws_security_group.default.id}"]
  subnet_id = "${aws_subnet.default.id}"

  # installs inspec and executes the profiles
  provisioner "inspec" {
    profiles = [
      "supermarket://dev-sec/linux-baseline",
      "supermarket://dev-sec/ssh-baseline",
    ]

    # allow pass if compliance errors happen
    on_failure = "continue"
  }
}

Cloud Platform

InSpec has a wide-support for cloud-platforms. This allows us to verify configuration like security groups. See InSpec AWS, Azure and GCP documentation

resource "null_resource" "inspec_aws" {
  // runs inspec profile against aws services
  provisioner "inspec" {
    profiles = [
      "https://github.com/chris-rock/aws-baseline",
    ]

    target {
      backend      = "aws"
      access_key = "${var.aws_access_key}"
      secret_key = "${var.aws_secret_key}"
      region     = "us-east-1"
    }

    reporter {
      name = "json"
    }

    on_failure = "continue"
  }
}
