A security toolkit for Amazon S3
Another day, another leaky Amazon S3 bucket
— The Register, 12 Jul 2017
Don’t be the... next... big... data... leak
:tangerine: Battle-tested at Instacart
Run:
pip install s3tk
You can use the AWS CLI or AWS Vault to set up your AWS credentials:
pip install awscli
aws configure
See IAM policies needed for each command.
Scan your buckets for:
s3tk scan
Only run on specific buckets
s3tk scan my-bucket my-bucket-2
Also works with wildcards
s3tk scan "my-bucket*"
Confirm correct log bucket(s) and prefix
s3tk scan --log-bucket my-s3-logs --log-bucket other-region-logs --log-prefix "{bucket}/"
Check CloudTrail object-level logging [experimental]
s3tk scan --object-level-logging
Skip logging, versioning, or default encryption
s3tk scan --skip-logging --skip-versioning --skip-default-encryption
Get email notifications of failures (via SNS)
s3tk scan --sns-topic arn:aws:sns:...
List bucket policies
s3tk list-policy
Only run on specific buckets
s3tk list-policy my-bucket my-bucket-2
Show named statements
s3tk list-policy --named
Note: This replaces the previous policy
Only private uploads
s3tk set-policy my-bucket --no-object-acl
Delete policy
s3tk delete-policy my-bucket
Block public access on specific buckets
s3tk block-public-access my-bucket my-bucket-2
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
Enable logging on all buckets
s3tk enable-logging --log-bucket my-s3-logs
Only on specific buckets
s3tk enable-logging my-bucket my-bucket-2 --log-bucket my-s3-logs
Set log prefix ({bucket}/
by default)
s3tk enable-logging --log-bucket my-s3-logs --log-prefix "logs/{bucket}/"
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
A few notes about logging:
Enable versioning on all buckets
s3tk enable-versioning
Only on specific buckets
s3tk enable-versioning my-bucket my-bucket-2
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
Enable default encryption on all buckets
s3tk enable-default-encryption
Only on specific buckets
s3tk enable-default-encryption my-bucket my-bucket-2
This does not encrypt existing objects - use the encrypt
command for this
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
Scan ACL on all objects in a bucket
s3tk scan-object-acl my-bucket
Only certain objects
s3tk scan-object-acl my-bucket --only "*.pdf"
Except certain objects
s3tk scan-object-acl my-bucket --except "*.jpg"
Reset ACL on all objects in a bucket
s3tk reset-object-acl my-bucket
This makes all objects private. See bucket policies for how to enforce going forward.
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
Specify certain objects the same way as scan-object-acl
Encrypt all objects in a bucket with server-side encryption
s3tk encrypt my-bucket
Use S3-managed keys by default. For KMS-managed keys, use:
s3tk encrypt my-bucket --kms-key-id arn:aws:kms:...
For customer-provided keys, use:
s3tk encrypt my-bucket --customer-key secret-key
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
Specify certain objects the same way as scan-object-acl
Note: Objects will lose any custom ACL
Delete all unencrypted versions of objects in a bucket
s3tk delete-unencrypted-versions my-bucket
For safety, this will not delete any current versions of objects
Use the --dry-run
flag to test
Specify certain objects the same way as scan-object-acl
Scan Route 53 for buckets to make sure you own them
s3tk scan-dns
Otherwise, you may be susceptible to subdomain takeover
Credentials can be specified in ~/.aws/credentials
or with environment variables. See this guide for an explanation of environment variables.
You can specify a profile to use with:
AWS_PROFILE=your-profile s3tk
Here are the permissions needed for each command. Only include statements you need.

Amazon Athena is great for querying S3 logs. Create a table (thanks to this post for the table structure) with:
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE my_bucket (
bucket_owner string,
bucket string,
time string,
remote_ip string,
requester string,
request_id string,
operation string,
key string,
request_verb string,
request_url string,
request_proto string,
status_code string,
error_code string,
bytes_sent string,
object_size string,
total_time string,
turn_around_time string,
referrer string,
user_agent string,
version_id string
)
ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.RegexSerDe'
WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
'serialization.format' = '1',
'input.regex' = '([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) \\[(.*?)\\] ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) \\\"([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) (- |[^ ]*)\\\" (-|[0-9]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) ([^ ]*) (\"[^\"]*\\") ([^ ]*)$'
) LOCATION 's3://my-s3-logs/my-bucket/';
Change the last line to point to your log bucket (and prefix) and query away
SELECT
date_parse(time, '%d/%b/%Y:%H:%i:%S +0000') AS time,
request_url,
remote_ip,
user_agent
FROM
my_bucket
WHERE
requester = '-'
AND status_code LIKE '2%'
AND request_url LIKE '/some-keys%'
ORDER BY 1
Amazon Athena is also great for querying CloudTrail logs. Create a table (thanks to this post for the table structure) with:
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE cloudtrail_logs (
eventversion STRING,
userIdentity STRUCT<
type:STRING,
principalid:STRING,
arn:STRING,
accountid:STRING,
invokedby:STRING,
accesskeyid:STRING,
userName:String,
sessioncontext:STRUCT<
attributes:STRUCT<
mfaauthenticated:STRING,
creationdate:STRING>,
sessionIssuer:STRUCT<
type:STRING,
principalId:STRING,
arn:STRING,
accountId:STRING,
userName:STRING>>>,
eventTime STRING,
eventSource STRING,
eventName STRING,
awsRegion STRING,
sourceIpAddress STRING,
userAgent STRING,
errorCode STRING,
errorMessage STRING,
requestId STRING,
eventId STRING,
resources ARRAY<STRUCT<
ARN:STRING,
accountId:STRING,
type:STRING>>,
eventType STRING,
apiVersion STRING,
readOnly BOOLEAN,
recipientAccountId STRING,
sharedEventID STRING,
vpcEndpointId STRING,
requestParameters STRING,
responseElements STRING,
additionalEventData STRING,
serviceEventDetails STRING
)
ROW FORMAT SERDE 'com.amazon.emr.hive.serde.CloudTrailSerde'
STORED AS INPUTFORMAT 'com.amazon.emr.cloudtrail.CloudTrailInputFormat'
OUTPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveIgnoreKeyTextOutputFormat'
LOCATION 's3://my-cloudtrail-logs/'
Change the last line to point to your CloudTrail log bucket and query away
SELECT
eventTime,
eventName,
userIdentity.userName,
requestParameters
FROM
cloudtrail_logs
WHERE
eventName LIKE '%Bucket%'
ORDER BY 1
Keep things simple and follow the principle of least privilege to reduce the chance of mistakes.

For commands that iterate over bucket objects (scan-object-acl
, reset-object-acl
, encrypt
, and delete-unencrypted-versions
), run s3tk on an EC2 server for minimum latency.
The set-policy
, block-public-access
, enable-logging
, enable-versioning
, and enable-default-encryption
commands are provided for convenience. We recommend Terraform for managing your buckets.
