Amazon EKS Pod Identity Webhook

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

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.us-west-2.eks.amazonaws.com/624a142e-43fc-4a4e-9a65-0adbfe9d6a85"
       },
       "Action": "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity",
       "Condition": {
        "__doc_comment": "scope the role to the service account (optional)",
        "StringEquals": {
         "oidc.us-west-2.eks.amazonaws.com/624a142e-43fc-4a4e-9a65-0adbfe9d6a85:sub": "system:serviceaccount:default:my-serviceaccount"
        },
        "__doc_comment": "scope the role to a namespace (optional)",
        "StringLike": {
         "oidc.us-west-2.eks.amazonaws.com/624a142e-43fc-4a4e-9a65-0adbfe9d6a85: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"
  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
    spec:
      serviceAccountName: my-serviceaccount
      containers:
      - 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"
        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

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.

Installation

In-cluster

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

make cluster-up IMAGE=602401143452.dkr.ecr.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/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
