vault-manager

vault-manager is a CLI which allows to keep all your Hashicorp Vault configuration in a directory.

How does it works

vault-manager is a CLI which use modules to interact with Vault. Each module is and should be designed to interact woth a Vault part ('policies' module allows to manage policies, 'auth' module allows to manage authentication methods etc...)

Installation and usage

Using pip

Prerequisite

vault-manager has been developed using python 3.6.5 and works fine with this version. Some modules may not work using python 2.

Be sure there's a pypi source containing vaultmanager setup on your computer

Installation

$> pip install vaultmanager

And you're now ready to go !

From source

Prerequisite

vault-manager has been developed using python 3.6.5 and works fine with this version. Some modules may not work using python 2.

vault-manager is using pbr to build its package. First, you need to install pbr

$> pip install pbr

Installation

Once pbr installed, you'll be able to create the python package

$> python setup.py sdist

this will create the python package in a newly created dist folder in the project root folder.

You can now install the python package

pip install dist/vaultmanager-2.0.0.tar.gz

And you're now ready to go !

How to use it

Once the vaultmanager installed, you can now use the following command

$> vault-manager -h
usage: vault-manager [-h] [-V] [-v] [-d] [-s] [--vault-addr [VAULT_ADDR]]
                     [--vault-target-addr [VAULT_TARGET_ADDR]] [--vault-token]
                     [--vault-target-token] [--vault-config [VAULT_CONFIG]]
                     {ldap,policies,kv} ...

Vault configuration manager

positional arguments:
  {ldap,policies,kv}
    ldap                ldap management
    policies            policies management
    kv                  kv management

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -V, --version         display version and exit
  -v, --verbose         enable verbose mode
  -d, --dry-run         run in dry mode: No API calls
  -s, --skip-tls        disable TLS verification
  --vault-addr [VAULT_ADDR]
                        Vault address (https://<URL>:<PORT>)
  --vault-target-addr [VAULT_TARGET_ADDR]
                        Vault target address (https://<URL>:<PORT>)
  --vault-token         Prompt for Vault token
  --vault-target-token  Prompt for Vault target token
  --vault-config [VAULT_CONFIG]
                        Specify location of vault_config folder

You can print the help for each module by typing

vault-manager <module> -h

Each module can be run with --dry-run, --verbose or --skip-tls args

Argument -v, --verbose is quantitative:

no -v flag will produce a standard output with an INFO log level
-v flag enhance the log output but stays in INFO level
-vv flag enhance the log output comparing to -v and change the log level to DEBUG

e.g.

$> vault-manager -vv -d -s ldap --list-groups

Modules

There's 3 vaultmanager modules:

kv: K/V store management. Contains different operations on the Vault K/V store
ldap: LDAP management. Allows to create groups/users Vault policies from a LDAP and configure them into Vault
policies: Vault policies management. Allows to push/pull policies created with ldap module from/to Vault instance

For each Needed arguments sections below, arguments can be specified in two ways:

as a command line argument
as an environment variable

Here is the correspondence table:

Command line argument	Environment variable
--vault-addr	VAULT_ADDR
--vault-target-addr	VAULT_TARGET_ADDR
--vault-token	VAULT_TOKEN
--vault-target-token	VAULT_TARGET_TOKEN
--vault-config	VAULT_CONFIG

If --vault-token or --vault-target are present, you will be prompted for tokens

kv

kv modules allows to perform actions on the key/value store

$> vault-manager kv -h
usage: vault-manager kv [-h] [--copy-path COPY_FROM_PATH COPY_TO_PATH]
                        [--copy-secret SECRET_TO_COPY SECRET_TARGET]

Configuration file

There is no configuration file needed by this module

--copy-path

vault-manager kv --copy-path COPY_FROM_PATH COPY_TO_PATH

Arguments needed

vault-addr
vault-target-addr
vault-token
vault-target-token

copy-path will copy k/v tree at COPY_FROM_PATH to COPY_TO_PATH.

copy-path should be used only to copy secrets folders. To copy a single secret instead, use copy-secret

All secrets under COPY_FROM_PATH on vault-addr will be copied to COPY_TO_PATH on vault-target-addr. (vault-addr and vault-target-addr can be identical if you want to duplicate a secret tree on the same Vault instance)

Example

with the following command

vault-manager kv --copy-path path/to/tree path/to/new-tree

The secret path/to/tree/this/is/secret will be copied at path/to/new-tree/this/is/secret

WARNING: All secrets already existing on vault-target-addr will be overwritten

NOTE: Secrets already existing on vault-target-addr but not existing on vault-addr will not be deleted

Description

copy-secret will copy a single secret at SECRET_TO_COPY to SECRET_TARGET.

copy-secret should be used only to copy single secrets. To copy a path instead, use --copy-path

All secrets under COPY_FROM_PATH on vault-addr will be copied to COPY_TO_PATH on vault-target-addr. (vault-addr and vault-target-addr can be identical if you want to duplicate a secret tree on the same Vault instance)

Example

with the following command

vault-manager kv --copy-secret this/is/secret this/is/new-secret

The secret this/is/secret will be copied at this/is/new-secret

WARNING: The secret already existing on vault-target-addr will be overwritten

--delete

vault-manager kv --delete PATHS_TO_DELETE [PATHS_TO_DELETE ...]

Arguments needed

vault-addr
vault-target-addr

vault-manager kv --count SECRET_PATHS [SECRET_PATHS ...] --exclude SECRET_PATHS [SECRET_PATHS ...]

Arguments needed

vault-addr
vault-token

Description

This command will count all secrets under each path of SECRET_PATHS

If one or several path(s) is/are specified after --exclude, these paths will be excluded from the count

Example

$> vault-manager kv --count services apps
{

    "0": [
        "apps/path/to/secret:key",
        "services/another/path/anothersecret:otherkey"
    ],
    "1": [
        "apps/hello/credentials:username",
        "apps/accounts/user1:password"
    ]
}

This means:

The value of the secret apps/path/to/secret at key key is the same than the secret services/another/path/anothersecret at the key otherkey
The value of the secret apps/hello/credentials at key username is the same than the secret apps/accounts/user1 at the key password

                        Create a folder for each user in
                        <users_secrets_folder>

Configuration file

Three files are needed by this module

$VAULT_CONFIG/ldap.yml
$VAULT_CONFIG/policies/policies.yml
$VAULT_CONFIG/policies/group_policy.hcl
$VAULT_CONFIG/policies/user_policy.hcl

ldap.yml is the configuration file of the ldap module

ldap:
  server: ldap://<URL>
  username: <LDAP_username>
  password: <LDAP_password_Vault_path>
  group_dn: OU=<group1>,OU=<group2>,DC=<company>
  user_dn: OU=<users1>,OU=<users2>,DC=<company>

policies.yml is used by ldap module.

e.g. policies.yml

general:
  group:
    # Policy used to generate groups policies
    default_policy: group_policy.hcl
    # The root policy will be applied to the following groups
    # in addition of their own policy
    root: [root_group_1, root_group_2]
  user:
    # Policy used to generate users policies
    default_policy: user_policy.hcl
    # The root policy will be applied to the following users
    # in addition of their own policy
    root: [root_user_1, root_user_2]

# By default no groups are added
# All have to be specified
groups:
  groups_to_add:
    - <LDAP_group_name_1>
    - <LDAP_group_name_2>

# By default all users are added
# Each user to exclude have to be listed below
users:
  users_to_exclude:
    - <user_1>
    - <user_2>

group_policy.hcl contains the default policy for groups. The pattern {{GROUP_NAME}} will be replaced by the group name.

e.g. group_policy.hcl

# Groups default policy
path "groups/" {
  capabilities = ["list"]
}

path "groups/{{GROUP_NAME}}/*"  {
  capabilities = ["read", "create", "update", "delete", "list"]
}

user_policy.hcl contains the default policy for users. The pattern {{USER_NAME}} will be replaced by the user name.

e.g. user_policy.hcl

# Default policy for user
path "users/" {
  capabilities = ["list"]
}

path "users/{{USER_NAME}}/*" {
  capabilities = ["read", "create", "update", "delete", "list"]
}

arguments

list-groups

vault-manager ldap --list-groups

list-groups will display found LDAP groups

WARNING: The env var specified in ldap.yml under ldap.password must be set. It should be the password the LDAP account specified in ldap.yml under ldap.username.

create-policies

vault-manager ldap --create-policies

create-policies will create all policies.

Groups policies for groups specified in the policies.yml under groups_to_add
Users policies for all users members of the groups specified in policies.yml under groups_to_add except users specified in users_to_exclude

Two subfolders will be created in $VAULT_CONFIG/policies

users under which will be created users policies
groups under which will be created groups policies

Each user policy will be created with the following file name <user_name>.hcl

Each group policy will be created with the following file name <group_name>.hcl

NOTE: If a policy file already exists, it will not be overwritten

WARNING: If a group or user previously included in policies.yml is removed, all associated policies will be deleted

manage-ldap-groups

vault-manager ldap --manage-ldap-groups [LDAP_mount_point]

manage-ldap-groups will create groups found in LDAP under the LDAP_mount_point Vault configuration. See Vault documentation for more details create-update-ldap-group The correct policy for the group will be applied

manage-ldap-users

vault-manager ldap --manage-ldap-users [LDAP_mount_point]

manage-ldap-users will create users found in LDAP under the LDAP_mount_point Vault configuration. See Vault documentation for more details create-update-ldap-user The correct policy for the group will be applied

create-groups-secrets

vault-manager ldap --create-groups-secrets [groups_secrets_folder]

create-groups-secrets will create/delete a secret 'folder' for each LDAP group at groups_secrets_folder/{{GROUP_NAME}}.

NOTE: If the folder already exists, it will not be modified

WARNING: If secrets 'folder' have to be deleted (because the group doesn't exists in configuration anymore), all secrets in this 'folder' will be lost

create-users-secrets

vault-manager ldap --create-users-secrets [users_secrets_folder]

create-users-secrets will create/delete a secret 'folder' for each LDAP user at users_secrets_folder/{{USER_NAME}}.

NOTE: If the folder already exists, it will not be modified

WARNING: If secrets 'folder' have to be deleted (because the user doesn't exists in configuration anymore), all secrets in this 'folder' will be lost

policies

The policies module allows to manage policies in Vault

$> vault-manager policies -h
usage: vault-manager policies [-h] [--pull] [--push]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --pull      Pull distant policies from Vault
  --push      Push local policies to Vault

arguments

pull

vault-manager policies --pull

pull will fetch all policies in Vault and create policy files in $VAULT_CONFIG/policies

IMPORTANT: Every policy in Vault have to match the following naming convention <keyword>_<policy_name>_policy. e.g. user_<policy_name>_policy, service_<policy_name>_policy If a policy does not match this naming pattern, it will not be pulled

NOTE: Policies already in Vault by default default and root will never be pulled

A subfolder for each keyword found in policies will be created and associated policies files will be created under it. e.g. Following policies in Vault

$> vault policy list
default
user_bob_policy
group_admins_policy
service_jenkins_policy
service_concourse_policy
root

will create the following folders tree in the $VAULT_CONFIG/policies folder

policies
├── user
│   └── bob.hcl
├── group
│    └── admins.hcl
└── service
    ├── jenkins.hcl
    └── concourse.hcl

push

vault-manager policies --push

push will push all policies found in $VAULT_CONFIG/policies to Vault. Policies naming works the same way than describe above

NOTE: Policies already in Vault by default default and root will never be deleted/modified

Only policies in subfolders will be pushed to Vault e.g. Following folders tree

policies
├── user
│   └── bob.hcl
├── group
│    └── admins.hcl
└── service
    ├── jenkins.hcl
    └── concourse.hcl

will create the following policies in vault

$> vault policy list
default
user_bob_policy
group_admins_policy
service_jenkins_policy
service_concourse_policy
root
