Release Notes

5.13.0 (2023-05-31)

What's new?

  • Resource's metadata will now also include createdBy details in Turbot CMDB.

5.12.2 (2023-03-17)

Bug fixes

  • The AWS > SQS > Queue > Encryption at Rest control would sometimes go into an error state if the KmsMasterKeyId of the KMS Key used to encrypt the Queue had an arn format of the Key's Alias. This is fixed and the control will now work as expected.

5.12.1 (2022-07-13)

Bug fixes

  • The lambda functions for certain controls/actions would re-run unnecessarily whenever the mod version was updated. This has now been fixed.

5.12.0 (2022-07-12)

What's new?

  • Users can now perform quick actions on resources to remediate cloud configuration issues or skip Turbot alarms for issues that they want to come back to later. To get started, click on the Actions button, which will reveal a dropdown menu with available actions, and select one. See Quick Actions for more information.
  • README.md file is now available for users to check details about the resource types and service permissions that the mod covers.

Action Types

Added

  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Delete from AWS
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Set Tags
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Active control
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Active control [90 days]
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Approved control
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Approved control [90 days]
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Encryption at Rest control
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Encryption at Rest control [90 days]
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Tags control
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Skip alarm for Tags control [90 days]

5.11.1 (2022-03-15)

Bug fixes

  • The Trusted Access control did not evaluate a resource policy correctly if the policy statement had a Condition to match aws:SourceArn and the Trusted Access > Accounts policy was set to *. This is now fixed.

5.11.0 (2022-02-15)

What's new?

  • Users can now create their own custom checks against resource attributes in the Approved control using the Approved > Custom policy. These custom checks would be a part of the evaluation of the Approved control. Custom messages can also be added which are then displayed in the control details table. See Custom Checks for more information.

Bug fixes

  • We've improved the process of deleting resources from Turbot if their CMDB policy was set to Enforce: Disabled. The CMDB controls will now not look to resolve credentials via Turbot's IAM role while deleting resources from Turbot. This will allow the CMDB controls to process resource deletions from Turbot more reliably than before.

Policy Types

Added

  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Approved > Custom

5.10.5 (2022-01-25)

Bug fixes

  • We've made a few improvements in the GraphQL query for AWS > SQS > Queue > Encryption At Rest control. You won't notice any difference, but things should run lighter and quicker than before.

5.10.4 (2022-01-24)

Bug fixes

  • The AWS > SQS > Queue > Encryption at Rest control would sometimes evaluate the outcome incorrectly if the key in AWS > SQS > Queue > Encryption at Rest > Customer Managed Key policy was in an id format. This is fixed and the control now works as expected.

5.10.3 (2021-09-15)

Bug fixes

  • In several recent versions, we had released changes that we thought had fixed errors while evaluating the outcome of the AWS > SQS > Queue > Policy > Trusted Access control. Turns out we were wrong and the control still went into an error state for an empty policy statement. Now, we've included another fix that really should resolve the error and get the control running smoothly again.

5.10.2 (2021-08-24)

Bug fixes

  • The AWS > SQS > Queue > Policy > Trusted Access control would go into an error state if a policy statement had an empty aws:SourceArn condition. This is now fixed.

5.10.1 (2021-07-22)

Bug fixes

  • The AWS > SQS > Queue > Policy > Trusted Access control would go into an error state if the policy statement did not contain Principal. This is now fixed.

5.10.0 (2021-07-16)

Control Types

Added

  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Configured
  • AWS > SQS > Stack

Policy Types

Added

  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Configured
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Configured > Claim Precedence
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Configured > Source
  • AWS > SQS > Stack
  • AWS > SQS > Stack > Secret Variables
  • AWS > SQS > Stack > Source
  • AWS > SQS > Stack > Terraform Version
  • AWS > SQS > Stack > Variables

5.9.0 (2021-07-08)

What's new?

  • We've improved the details tables in the Tags controls to be more helpful, especially when a resource's tags are not set correctly as expected. Previously, to understand why the Tags controls were in an Alarm state, you would need to find and read the control's process logs. This felt like too much work for a simple task, so now these details are visible directly from the control page.

Bug fixes

  • We’ve made a few improvements in the GraphQL queries for various controls, policies, and actions. You won’t notice any difference, but things should run lighter and quicker than before.

5.8.1 (2021-04-06)

Bug fixes

  • We've updated the description of the AWS > SQS > Queue > Trusted Access policy and control to include more information about its working and scope.

5.8.0 (2021-03-31)

What's new?

  • We've improved the state reasons and details tables in various Approved and Active controls to be more helpful, especially when a resource is unapproved or inactive. Previously, to understand why one of these controls is in Alarm state, you would need to find and read the control's process logs. This felt like too much work for a simple task, so now these details are visible directly from the control page.

Bug fixes

  • Users can now manage tags on queues in the us-gov-west-1 region via the AWS > SQS > Queue > Tags control.

5.7.3 (2021-01-19)

Bug fixes

  • The AWS > SQS > Queue > Discovery control would fail to upsert more than a 1000 queues in a region due to lack of paging support. This is now fixed.

5.7.2 (2021-01-07)

Bug fixes

  • Controls run faster now when in the tbd and skipped states thanks to the new Turbot Precheck feature (not to be confused with TSA PreCheck). With Turbot Precheck, controls avoid running GraphQL input queries when in tbd and skipped, resulting in faster and lighter control runs.

5.7.1 (2020-09-28)

Bug fixes

  • We've made some improvements to our real-time event handling that reduces the risk of creating resources in CMDB with malformed AKAs. There's no noticeable difference, but things should run more reliably now.

5.7.0 (2020-09-18)

What's new?

  • Cross-account trust is not only important for complex enterprise and application scenarios but is also a critical area for security controls. We now support controlling cross-account access for queues to provide automatic protection against unexpected cross-account access.

    A common set of trusted AWS account IDs can be defined in the AWS > Account > Trusted Accounts [Default] policy. Trusted accounts can also be defined at any level, even down to the specific queue resource.

    To get started with these new controls, please see the AWS > SQS > Queue > Policy > Trusted Access policy.

Control Types

Added

  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Policy
  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Policy > Trusted Access

Action Types

  • AWS > SQS > Queue > Set Policy Trusted Access

5.6.0 (2020-09-02)

What's new?

  • Discovery controls now have their own control category, CMDB > Discovery, to allow for easier filtering separately from other CMDB controls.
  • We've renamed the service's default regions policy from Regions [Default] to Regions to be consistent with our other regions policies.

5.5.2 (2020-08-13)

Bug fixes

  • In various Active controls, we were outputting log messages that did not properly show how many days were left until we'd delete the inactive resources (we were still deleting them after the correct number of days). These log messages have been fixed and now contain the correct number of days.
  • Whenever a policy attached to a queue was removed from the AWS console, it's corresponding CMDB control did not get updated. This issue has now been fixed.

5.5.1 (2020-07-23)

  • AWS/SQS/Admin now includes permissions for managing access to queues.

Bug fixes
