How-To: Limit the secrets that can be read from secret stores

To limit the secrets to which the Dapr application has access, users can define secret scopes by augmenting existing configuration resource with restrictive permissions.

In addition to scoping which applications can access a given component, for example a secret store component (see Scoping components), a named secret store component itself can be scoped to one or more secrets for an application. By defining allowedSecrets and/or deniedSecrets list, applications can be restricted to access only specific secrets.

Follow these instructions to define a configuration resource.

Configure secrets access

The secrets section under the Configuration spec contains the following properties:

secrets:
  scopes:
    - storeName: kubernetes
      defaultAccess: allow
      allowedSecrets: ["redis-password"]
    - storeName: localstore
      defaultAccess: allow
      deniedSecrets: ["redis-password"]

The following table lists the properties for secret scopes:

Property Type Description
storeName string Name of the secret store component. storeName must be unique within the list
默认权限 string Access modifier. Accepted values “allow” (default) or “deny”
允许的密钥 list List of secret keys that can be accessed
被拒绝的密钥 list List of secret keys that cannot be accessed

When an allowedSecrets list is present with at least one element, only those secrets defined in the list can be accessed by the application.

权限优先级

The allowedSecrets and deniedSecrets list values take priorty over the defaultAccess.

Scenarios 默认权限 允许的密钥 被拒绝的密钥 权限
1 - 仅默认访问 拒绝/允许 为空 为空 拒绝/允许
2 - 默认为拒绝的允许列表 拒绝 [“s1”] 为空 只能访问"s1"
3 - Default allow with denied list 允许 为空 [“s1”] 仅限"s1"无法访问
4 - 默认允许的允许列表 允许 [“s1”] 为空 只能访问"s1"
5 - 默认拒绝的拒绝列表 拒绝 为空 [“s1”] 拒绝
6 - 默认拒绝/允许的两个列表 拒绝/允许 [“s1”] [“s2”] 只能访问"s1"

示例

场景1：拒绝访问密钥存储中的所有密钥

In Kubernetes cluster, the native Kubernetes secret store is added to Dapr application by default. In some scenarios it may be necessary to deny access to Dapr secrets for a given application. To add this configuration follow the steps below:

Define the following appconfig.yaml and apply it to the Kubernetes cluster using the command kubectl apply -f appconfig.yaml.

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Configuration
metadata:
  name: appconfig
spec:
  secrets:
    scopes:
      - storeName: kubernetes
        defaultAccess: deny

For applications that need to be denied access to the Kubernetes secret store, follow these instructions, and add the following annotation to the application pod.

dapr.io/config: appconfig

With this defined, the application no longer has access to Kubernetes secret store.

场景2：只允许访问密钥仓库中的某些密钥

To allow a Dapr application to have access to only certain secrets, define the following config.yaml:

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Configuration
metadata:
  name: appconfig
spec:
  secrets:
    scopes:
      - storeName: vault
        defaultAccess: deny
        allowedSecrets: ["secret1", "secret2"]

This example defines configuration for secret store named vault. The default access to the secret store is deny, whereas some secrets are accessible by the application based on the allowedSecrets list. Follow these instructions to apply configuration to the sidecar.

场景3：拒绝访问密钥仓库中的某些敏感密钥

定义以下 config.yaml:

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Configuration
metadata:
  name: appconfig
spec:
  secrets:
    scopes:
      - storeName: vault
        defaultAccess: allow # this is the default value, line can be omitted
        deniedSecrets: ["secret1", "secret2"]

The above configuration explicitly denies access to secret1 and secret2 from the secret store named vault while allowing access to all other secrets. Follow these instructions to apply configuration to the sidecar.
