Summary

This is a test-only follow-up to #1782, covering the two CodeRabbit review threads that were resolved there with a promise of a follow-up. Part of #157.

  • logs:DescribeMetricFilters (monitoring_apply_test.go): it was an action-only (noResource) need. The SAR's service reference lists the log-group resource type for it, so the test now requires the grant to cover both monitoring log groups, Lambda and ECS. The three query-definition actions stay action-only. The current grant already covers both, so there is no grant change.
  • rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets (rds_scopes_test.go, requiredRDSProxyTypes): db is added to the required types. Unverified: the service reference lists cluster, db, proxy and target-group without required markers, and the SAR HTML page did not render. It is kept because db is required for RegisterDBProxyTargets and is the deregistered target. The table gates only the deferred proxy grants (owner decision A), so nothing is authorized differently today.

Validation

  • go test ./terraform/environments/aws/ci-cd-permissions/... passes at main plus this change.
  • Mutation probes in scratch copies:
    • narrowing the DescribeMetricFilters grant to the Lambda log group only fails TestDeployPolicyGrantsEveryActionTheMonitoringModuleNeeds on the ECS log group;
    • adding decision A's proxy statements with Deregister lacking db fails TestRDSProxyMutatingActionsNeedProxyARNs.
  • Every pre-commit hook ran.

Test files only; no applied resources change.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Tests

  • Updated AWS permission checks to verify metric-filter access across Lambda and ECS log groups.
  • Expanded database proxy permission coverage to include database resources when deregistering proxy targets.
  • These changes improve validation of cloud permission configurations; no end-user behavior changes are included.

…eregisterDBProxyTargets

Follow-up to #1782 (CodeRabbit review threads). Refs #157

DescribeMetricFilters lists the log-group resource type in the SAR
(servicereference logs.json), so the monitoring test now requires it on
both the Lambda and ECS log groups instead of treating it as action-only.

rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets gains "db" in requiredRDSProxyTypes.
servicereference rds.json lists cluster, db, proxy and target-group
without required markers and the SAR HTML page did not render, so db
being required is unverified; it is kept because db is required for
RegisterDBProxyTargets and is the deregistered target.

Walkthrough

Two AWS permission tests now require broader resource scopes: one for monitoring metric filters and one for deregistering RDS proxy targets.

Changes: Monitoring log-group scopes

Layer / File(s) Summary
Metric-filter resource scope
terraform/environments/aws/ci-cd-permissions/monitoring_apply_test.go
The test requires logs:DescribeMetricFilters grants for both Lambda and ECS log-group ARNs. The three query-definition actions remain in the no-resource list.

RDS proxy target scopes

Layer / File(s) Summary
Deregister target resource types
terraform/environments/aws/ci-cd-permissions/rds_scopes_test.go
The required resource types for rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets now include db alongside db-proxy and target-group.

Merge Risk: Low · up to aeefc

This test-only change leaves production permissions unchanged and is mergeable with a bounded follow-up: exercise the new RDS requirement with a synthetic grant so its removal cannot silently pass.

Test-only; no policy change.

  • go test ./terraform/environments/aws/ci-cd-permissions/ passes at the head.
  • monitoring_apply_test.go:37-38: narrowing logs:DescribeMetricFilters from "*" to the Lambda log group only fails the test at the head (no grant on the ECS log group). The same narrowing passes against the base test, so the new need is what catches it.
  • rds_scopes_test.go:126: a rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets statement on db-proxy and target-group only fails TestRDSProxyMutatingActionsNeedProxyARNs (db not granted); adding db:cudly-* makes it pass.
  • Both assertions are coverage checks: they fail when a grant stops covering a needed resource. Widening a scope still passes them (e.g. PutMetricFilter on log-group:* passes), as before this PR.
  • The db requirement for Deregister is marked unverified in the body; it is consistent with RegisterDBProxyTargets and only gates the deferred proxy grants.

Cold review (non-author). The change is test-only: 2 files, +5/-4, in terraform/environments/aws/ci-cd-permissions. I ran it offline, throttled, scoped to that package. That package has no integration-tagged files.

  • monitoring_apply_test.go: logs:DescribeMetricFilters moves from the "no resource-level permissions" list to the Lambda and ECS log-group needs. That matches the service authorization reference, which lists the log-group resource type for the action. The current grant (LogsReadAndQueries, Resource = "*") still satisfies it.
  • rds_scopes_test.go: rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets now requires db as well as db-proxy and target-group, the same as Register.
  • go test on the package: passes at this head.

Mutation probes, each in a scratch copy and reverted:

Probe This head main
DescribeMetricFilters removed from LogsReadAndQueries and granted only on /aws/lambda/cudly-* (no ECS group) fails: monitoring: no deploy policy statement grants logs:DescribeMetricFilters on ... passes (the gap)
DeregisterDBProxyTargets granted on db-proxy + target-group ARNs only (no db) fails (TestRDSProxyMutatingActionsNeedProxyARNs) passes (the gap)
The same grant including db passes —
Control: the same action on a non-RDS ARN fails as a dead grant, which proves the probe statement is parsed —

Note on scope: these are coverage assertions. They fail when a grant is missing or too narrow for a required resource, not when it is widened. A wider grant such as * still satisfies them by design; over-broad scopes are guarded elsewhere (the dead-grant and path-guard tests). Proxy actions stay ungranted today (enable_rds_proxy is pinned false by the tripwire), so the RDS change is a guard for when they are added.

Require "*" for action-only grants in grantedBy.

grantedBy returns true for a noResource need as soon as an action matches. It does not read Resource. A statement that grants logs:PutQueryDefinition, logs:DescribeQueryDefinitions, or logs:DeleteQueryDefinition only on a log-group ARN still passes the monitoring check. The helper should require "*" for these needs. The route53:CreateHostedZone need in optin_paths_test.go still passes, because policy_networking.tf grants that action on "*".

Suggested fix

 		if need.noResource {
-			return true
+			for _, r := range statementResources(stmt) {
+				if r == "*" {
+					return true
+				}
+			}
+			continue
 		}

Cover the db entry with a synthetic grant.

TestRDSProxyMutatingActionsNeedProxyARNs returns early for rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets because no deploy Allow statement holds it. The new db entry in requiredRDSProxyTypes is therefore never checked, and removing it leaves the test suite passing. Extract the holder-and-type check into a helper. Then add a test that passes a synthetic Allow statement granting rds:DeregisterDBProxyTargets on the db-proxy and target-group ARNs only. The helper should report db as ungranted.

The comment at rds_scopes_test.go:143 also needs correction. The tripwire pins the enable_rds_proxy literal and does not check grants.
