description: This search looks for AWS CloudTrail events where a user A who has already
|
|
permission to create access keys, makes an API call to create access keys for another
|
|
user B. Attackers have been know to use this technique for Privilege Escalation
|
|
in case new victim(user B) has more permissions than old victim(user B)
|
|
data_source: []
|
|
search: '`cloudtrail` eventName = CreateAccessKey userAgent !=console.amazonaws.com
|
|
errorCode = success | eval match=if(match(userIdentity.userName,requestParameters.userName),1,0)
|
|
| search match=0 | stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime by
|
|
requestParameters.userName src eventName eventSource aws_account_id errorCode userAgent
|
|
eventID awsRegion userIdentity.principalId user_arn | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
|
|
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` |`aws_createaccesskey_filter`'
|
|
how_to_implement: You must install splunk AWS add on and Splunk App for AWS. This
|
|
search works with AWS CloudTrail logs.
|
|
known_false_positives: While this search has no known false positives, it is possible
|
|
that an AWS admin has legitimately created keys for another user.
