Overview

KeywhizFs is a client for Keywhiz which represents accessible secrets as a userland filesystem (using FUSE). This client will mount a directory which contains files for each secret that is accessible.

Exposing secrets as a filesystem has many benefits.

  1. Consumers of secrets require no special libraries or code.
  2. Unix user and group permissions restrict which processes can read a secret.

Transparently, authentication is performed with a Keywhiz server using mutually-authenticated TLS. A client certificate, trusted by Keywhiz, is required and used to authenticate KeywhizFs. Refer to the Keywhiz documentation for generating and managing client access.

Directory structure

KeywhizFs will display all secrets under the top level directory of the mountpoint. Secrets may not begin with the '.' character, which is reserved for special control "files".

Control files

  • .running
  • This "file" contains the PID of the owner process.
  • .clear_cache
  • Deleting this empty "file" will cause the internal cache of KeywhizFs to be cleared. This should seldom be necessary in practice but has been useful at times.
  • .json/
  • This sub-directory mimics the REST API of Keywhiz. Reading files will directly communicate with the backend server and display the unparsed JSON response.

Filesystem permissions

Building

Run go build keywhizfs/main.go.

Testing

Simply run go test ./....

Running

/etc/fuse.conf

In order to allow keywhiz-fs to expose its filesystems to other users besides the owner of the process, fuse must be configured with the 'user_allow_other' option. Put the following snippet in /etc/fuse.conf.

# The following line was added by keywhiz-fs
user_allow_other

fusermount setuid permissions

The fusermount progam is used within the go-fuse library. Generally, it is installed setuid root, with group read/execute permissions for group 'fuse'. For KeywhizFs to work, the running user must be a member of the 'fuse' group.

CAP_IPC_LOCK capability

To prevent secrets from ending up in swap, KeywhizFs will attempt to mlockall memory. This is not required, but is beneficial. On Linux, set the proper capability on the KeywhizFs binary so memory can be locked without running as root. Example assumes your binary is at /sbin/keywhiz-fs.

setcap 'cap_ipc_lock=+ep' /sbin/keywhiz-fs

Usage

Usage: ./keywhiz-fs [options] url mountpoint
Options:
  -asuser="keywhiz": Default user to own files
  -ca="cacert.crt": PEM-encoded CA certificates file
  -cert="": PEM-encoded certificate file
  -debug=false: Enable debugging output
  -group="keywhiz": Default group to own files
  -key="client.key": PEM-encoded private key file
  -ping=false: Enable startup ping to server
  -timeout=20: Timeout for communication with server in seconds

The -cert option may be omitted if the -key option contains both a PEM-encoded certificate and key.

Types

type Cache 

type Cache struct {
	*log.Logger
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Cache contains necessary state to return secrets, using previously cached content or retrieving from a server if necessary.

func NewCache 

func NewCache(backend SecretBackend, timeouts Timeouts, logConfig log.Config) *Cache

NewCache initializes a Cache.

func (*Cache) Add 

func (c *Cache) Add(s Secret)

Add inserts a secret into the cache. If a secret is already in the cache with a matching identifier, it will be overridden This method is most useful for testing since lookups may add data to the cache.

func (*Cache) Clear 

func (c *Cache) Clear()

Clear empties the internal cache.

func (*Cache) Len 

func (c *Cache) Len() int

Len returns the number of values stored in the cache. This method is most useful for testing.

func (*Cache) Secret 

func (c *Cache) Secret(name string) (*Secret, bool)

Secret retrieves a Secret by name from cache or a server.

Cache logic:

  • If cache hit and very recent: return cache entry
  • Ask backend w/ timeout
  • If backend returns fast: update cache, return
  • If timeout_backend_deadline AND cache hit: return cache entry, background update cache when backend returns
  • If timeout_max_wait: log error and pretend file doesn't exist

func (*Cache) SecretList 

func (c *Cache) SecretList() []Secret

SecretList returns a listing of Secrets from cache or a server.

Cache logic:

  • Ask backend w/ timeout
  • If backend returns fast: update cache, return
  • If timeout_backend_deadline: return cache entries, background update cache when backend returns
  • If timeout_max_wait: log error and pretend no files

type Client 

type Client struct {
	*klog.Logger
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Client basic struct.

func NewClient 

func NewClient(certFile, keyFile, caFile, serverURL string, timeout time.Duration, logConfig klog.Config, ping bool) (client Client)

NewClient produces a read-to-use client struct given PEM-encoded certificate file, key file, and ca file with the list of trusted certificate authorities.

func (Client) RawSecret 

func (c Client) RawSecret(name string) (data []byte, ok bool)

RawSecret returns raw JSON from requesting a secret.

func (Client) RawSecretList 

func (c Client) RawSecretList() (data []byte, ok bool)

RawSecretList returns raw JSON from requesting a listing of secrets.

func (Client) Secret 

func (c Client) Secret(name string) (secret *Secret, ok bool)

Secret returns an unmarshalled Secret struct after requesting a secret.

func (Client) SecretList 

func (c Client) SecretList() (secrets []Secret, ok bool)

SecretList returns a slice of unmarshalled Secret structs after requesting a listing of secrets.

type KeywhizFs 

type KeywhizFs struct {
	pathfs.FileSystem
	*log.Logger
	Client    *Client
	Cache     *Cache
	StartTime time.Time
	Ownership Ownership

KeywhizFs is the central struct for dispatching filesystem operations.

func NewKeywhizFs 

func NewKeywhizFs(client *Client, ownership Ownership, timeouts Timeouts, logConfig log.Config) (kwfs *KeywhizFs, root nodefs.Node, err error)

NewKeywhizFs readies a KeywhizFs struct and its parent filesystem objects.
