S3 bucket should not be world-writable from anonymous users

Risk Level: Critical
Cloud Entity: Simple Storage Service (S3)
CloudGuard Rule ID: D9.AWS.IAM.30
Category: Storage

GSL LOGIC

S3Bucket should not have acl.grants contain [uri = 'http://acs.amazonaws.com/groups/global/AuthenticatedUsers' and (premission = 'FULL_CONTROL' or premission = 'WRITE')]

REMEDIATION

From Portal:

1. Go to Amazon S3 console
2. Select the desired S3 bucket you want to change.
3. Select the Permissions tab, and then go to Bucket Policy.
4. Remove policies for s3:Put actions for principals ''. If necessary, modify the policy instead, to limit the access to specific principals.
   Then, select Access Control List, and remove any grants to Write objects to Public (everyone) users.

From TF:

resource "aws_s3_bucket" "test" {
	bucket = "mybucket"
	grant {
		type        = "Group"
		+   permissions = [...] #  not "WRITE" or "FULL_CONTROL" or "READ_ACP"
		uri         = "http://acs.amazonaws.com/groups/global/AuthenticatedUsers"
	}
}

From Command Line:

1. Get and put a bucket policy. The following example shows how to download an Amazon S3 bucket policy, make modifications to the file, and then use put-bucket-policy to apply the modified bucket policy. Run following command to download the bucket policy to a file.

aws s3api get-bucket-policy --bucket BUCKET_NAME --query Policy --output text > policy.json

2. You can then modify the policy.json file as needed. Finally you can apply this modified policy back to the S3 bucket by running:

aws s3api put-bucket-policy --bucket BUCKET_NAME --policy POLICY.JSON

Note: Use action as s3:Put and Effect:Deny for user principals . Follow reference links for more details on json policy.
