2Cloud SQL instance accepts public authorized network access
gcp-cloud-sql-public-authorized-networkgoogle_sql_database_instance.app has a public Cloud SQL IPv4 endpoint and an authorized network that allows internet-wide client sources. That weakens the database trust boundary even when database authentication is still required.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- internet-to-service:internet->google_sql_database_instance.app
- Resources
- google_sql_database_instance.app
Evidence
- authorized networks: anywhere (0.0.0.0/0)
- public exposure reasons: authorized network `anywhere` allows 0.0.0.0/0
Sensitive GCP resource IAM binding allows broad or external access
gcp-sensitive-resource-iam-external-accessgoogle_secret_manager_secret.api_key grants `roles/secretmanager.secretAccessor` to `allAuthenticatedUsers` through GCP IAM. Public, broad-domain, or foreign-project principals can access sensitive secrets or cryptographic key operations outside the expected project trust boundary.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- not-applicable
- Resources
- google_secret_manager_secret.api_key, google_secret_manager_secret_iam_member.public_accessor
Evidence
- iam binding: source=google_secret_manager_secret_iam_member.public_accessor; role=roles/secretmanager.secretAccessor; member=allAuthenticatedUsers
- trust scope: member is public GCP principal `allAuthenticatedUsers`
- resource policy sources: google_secret_manager_secret_iam_member.public_accessor
Medium
10Cloud SQL automated backups are disabled
gcp-cloud-sql-backup-disabledgoogle_sql_database_instance.app does not have Cloud SQL automated backups enabled. A destructive change, operator error, or data corruption event would have fewer managed recovery points.
- Category
- Denial of Service
- Boundary
- not-applicable
- Resources
- google_sql_database_instance.app
Evidence
- backup posture: backup_configuration.enabled is false; point_in_time_recovery_enabled is false; engine is POSTGRES_15
Cloud SQL deletion protection is disabled
gcp-cloud-sql-deletion-protection-disabledgoogle_sql_database_instance.app has Cloud SQL deletion protection disabled. Accidental or unauthorized infrastructure changes could destroy the managed database instance without this provider-level guardrail.
- Category
- Denial of Service
- Boundary
- not-applicable
- Resources
- google_sql_database_instance.app
Evidence
- lifecycle posture: deletion_protection is false
Cloud SQL public IPv4 is enabled without private network access
gcp-cloud-sql-public-ip-without-private-networkgoogle_sql_database_instance.app has Cloud SQL public IPv4 enabled without a private network attachment. That keeps database client access on a public endpoint instead of an internal VPC path.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- internet-to-service:internet->google_sql_database_instance.app
- Resources
- google_sql_database_instance.app
Evidence
- network posture: ipv4_enabled is true; private_network is unset; authorized_networks configured: 1
- public access reasons: Cloud SQL public IPv4 access is enabled
Cloud SQL public client access does not require SSL
gcp-cloud-sql-ssl-not-requiredgoogle_sql_database_instance.app allows Cloud SQL public IPv4 client access without requiring encrypted client connections. Credentials and database traffic should not depend on client-side optional TLS behavior.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- internet-to-service:internet->google_sql_database_instance.app
- Resources
- google_sql_database_instance.app
Evidence
- ssl posture: require_ssl is false; ssl_mode is unset; ipv4_enabled is true
GCS bucket does not enforce Public Access Prevention
gcp-gcs-public-access-prevention-not-enforcedgoogle_storage_bucket.logs does not enforce GCS Public Access Prevention. Public principals can still be introduced through bucket IAM unless an organization-level policy blocks them.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- internet-to-service:internet->google_storage_bucket.logs
- Resources
- google_storage_bucket.logs
Evidence
- access control posture: public_access_prevention is unset
- public exposure reasons: google_storage_bucket_iam_member.public_logs_reader grants roles/storage.objectViewer to allUsers
GCS bucket is publicly accessible
gcp-gcs-public-accessgoogle_storage_bucket.logs is publicly reachable through GCS IAM grants. Public bucket access is a common source of unintended object disclosure.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- internet-to-service:internet->google_storage_bucket.logs
- Resources
- google_storage_bucket.logs
Evidence
- public exposure reasons: google_storage_bucket_iam_member.public_logs_reader grants roles/storage.objectViewer to allUsers
GCS sensitive bucket does not use customer-managed encryption
gcp-gcs-customer-managed-encryption-missinggoogle_storage_bucket.logs relies on default GCS encryption rather than a customer-managed KMS key. Sensitive buckets lose key ownership, rotation, and separation-of-duties controls that a CMEK can provide.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- not-applicable
- Resources
- google_storage_bucket.logs
Evidence
- encryption posture: default_kms_key_name is unset; customer_managed_encryption is false
GCS sensitive bucket versioning is disabled
gcp-gcs-versioning-disabledgoogle_storage_bucket.logs stores sensitive GCS data without bucket versioning. Accidental overwrites, deletes, or destructive changes have fewer object-level recovery options.
- Category
- Denial of Service
- Boundary
- not-applicable
- Resources
- google_storage_bucket.logs
Evidence
- data protection posture: versioning.enabled is false; data_sensitivity is sensitive
Internet-exposed GCP compute instance permits broad ingress
gcp-public-compute-broad-ingressgoogle_compute_instance.web has an external access config and matching GCP firewall rules allow administrative access or all ports from the public internet. That broad ingress raises the chance of unauthenticated probing and credential attacks.
- Category
- Spoofing
- Boundary
- internet-to-service:internet->google_compute_instance.web
- Resources
- google_compute_instance.web, google_compute_firewall.public_ssh
Evidence
- firewall rules: google_compute_firewall.public_ssh ingress tcp 22 from 0.0.0.0/0
- network tags: web
- public exposure reasons: compute instance has an external access config and matching firewall rules allow internet ingress
Sensitive GCP resource IAM binding allows broad or external access
gcp-sensitive-resource-iam-external-accessgoogle_kms_crypto_key.customer grants `roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyDecrypter` to `serviceAccount:decryptor@partner-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com` through GCP IAM. Public, broad-domain, or foreign-project principals can access sensitive secrets or cryptographic key operations outside the expected project trust boundary.
- Category
- Information Disclosure
- Boundary
- not-applicable
- Resources
- google_kms_crypto_key.customer, google_kms_crypto_key_iam_member.partner_decrypter
Evidence
- iam binding: source=google_kms_crypto_key_iam_member.partner_decrypter; role=roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyDecrypter; member=serviceAccount:decryptor@partner-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com
- trust scope: service account belongs to project `partner-project`, outside resource project `tfstride-demo`

## Findings
### High
#### Cloud SQL instance accepts public authorized network access
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Trust boundary: `internet-to-service:internet->google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +1, blast_radius +1, final_score 6 => high
- Rationale: google_sql_database_instance.app has a public Cloud SQL IPv4 endpoint and an authorized network that allows internet-wide client sources. That weakens the database trust boundary even when database authentication is still required.
- Recommended mitigation: Disable public IPv4 access where possible, use private IP connectivity or the Cloud SQL Auth Proxy, and restrict authorized networks to narrow CIDRs when public client access is required.
- Evidence:
- authorized networks: anywhere (0.0.0.0/0)
- public exposure reasons: authorized network `anywhere` allows 0.0.0.0/0
#### Sensitive GCP resource IAM binding allows broad or external access
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_secret_manager_secret.api_key`, `google_secret_manager_secret_iam_member.public_accessor`
- Trust boundary: `not-applicable`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +2, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +1, blast_radius +2, final_score 9 => high
- Rationale: google_secret_manager_secret.api_key grants `roles/secretmanager.secretAccessor` to `allAuthenticatedUsers` through GCP IAM. Public, broad-domain, or foreign-project principals can access sensitive secrets or cryptographic key operations outside the expected project trust boundary.
- Recommended mitigation: Grant Secret Manager and Cloud KMS IAM roles only to specific in-project service accounts or groups, remove public principals, and require explicit cross-project access reviews for partner identities.
- Evidence:
- iam binding: source=google_secret_manager_secret_iam_member.public_accessor; role=roles/secretmanager.secretAccessor; member=allAuthenticatedUsers
- trust scope: member is public GCP principal `allAuthenticatedUsers`
- resource policy sources: google_secret_manager_secret_iam_member.public_accessor
### Medium
#### Cloud SQL automated backups are disabled
- STRIDE category: Denial of Service
- Affected resources: `google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Trust boundary: `not-applicable`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +0, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +0, blast_radius +1, final_score 3 => medium
- Rationale: google_sql_database_instance.app does not have Cloud SQL automated backups enabled. A destructive change, operator error, or data corruption event would have fewer managed recovery points.
- Recommended mitigation: Enable automated backups for Cloud SQL instances, configure retention appropriate to the workload, and enable point-in-time recovery where supported.
- Evidence:
- backup posture: backup_configuration.enabled is false; point_in_time_recovery_enabled is false; engine is POSTGRES_15
#### Cloud SQL deletion protection is disabled
- STRIDE category: Denial of Service
- Affected resources: `google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Trust boundary: `not-applicable`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +0, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +0, blast_radius +1, final_score 3 => medium
- Rationale: google_sql_database_instance.app has Cloud SQL deletion protection disabled. Accidental or unauthorized infrastructure changes could destroy the managed database instance without this provider-level guardrail.
- Recommended mitigation: Enable Cloud SQL deletion protection for persistent environments and require explicit review before disabling it during planned database retirement.
- Evidence:
- lifecycle posture: deletion_protection is false
#### Cloud SQL public IPv4 is enabled without private network access
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Trust boundary: `internet-to-service:internet->google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +1, blast_radius +0, final_score 5 => medium
- Rationale: google_sql_database_instance.app has Cloud SQL public IPv4 enabled without a private network attachment. That keeps database client access on a public endpoint instead of an internal VPC path.
- Recommended mitigation: Disable public IPv4 where possible, attach the instance to a private network, and route clients through private IP, the Cloud SQL Auth Proxy, or tightly controlled connectivity paths.
- Evidence:
- network posture: ipv4_enabled is true; private_network is unset; authorized_networks configured: 1
- public access reasons: Cloud SQL public IPv4 access is enabled
#### Cloud SQL public client access does not require SSL
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Trust boundary: `internet-to-service:internet->google_sql_database_instance.app`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +1, blast_radius +0, final_score 5 => medium
- Rationale: google_sql_database_instance.app allows Cloud SQL public IPv4 client access without requiring encrypted client connections. Credentials and database traffic should not depend on client-side optional TLS behavior.
- Recommended mitigation: Require encrypted Cloud SQL client connections with `require_ssl` or an enforcing `ssl_mode`, and prefer private IP or the Cloud SQL Auth Proxy for application connectivity.
- Evidence:
- ssl posture: require_ssl is false; ssl_mode is unset; ipv4_enabled is true
#### GCS bucket does not enforce Public Access Prevention
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_storage_bucket.logs`
- Trust boundary: `internet-to-service:internet->google_storage_bucket.logs`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +0, blast_radius +1, final_score 5 => medium
- Rationale: google_storage_bucket.logs does not enforce GCS Public Access Prevention. Public principals can still be introduced through bucket IAM unless an organization-level policy blocks them.
- Recommended mitigation: Set GCS Public Access Prevention to `enforced` on sensitive buckets and rely on explicit non-public identities or signed access patterns when objects must be shared.
- Evidence:
- access control posture: public_access_prevention is unset
- public exposure reasons: google_storage_bucket_iam_member.public_logs_reader grants roles/storage.objectViewer to allUsers
#### GCS bucket is publicly accessible
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_storage_bucket.logs`
- Trust boundary: `internet-to-service:internet->google_storage_bucket.logs`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +0, blast_radius +1, final_score 5 => medium
- Rationale: google_storage_bucket.logs is publicly reachable through GCS IAM grants. Public bucket access is a common source of unintended object disclosure.
- Recommended mitigation: Remove `allUsers` and `allAuthenticatedUsers` from bucket-level IAM grants, enforce GCS Public Access Prevention, and use signed URLs, CDN origins, or narrow identities when objects must be distributed.
- Evidence:
- public exposure reasons: google_storage_bucket_iam_member.public_logs_reader grants roles/storage.objectViewer to allUsers
#### GCS sensitive bucket does not use customer-managed encryption
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_storage_bucket.logs`
- Trust boundary: `not-applicable`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +0, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +0, blast_radius +1, final_score 3 => medium
- Rationale: google_storage_bucket.logs relies on default GCS encryption rather than a customer-managed KMS key. Sensitive buckets lose key ownership, rotation, and separation-of-duties controls that a CMEK can provide.
- Recommended mitigation: Configure a Cloud KMS customer-managed key for sensitive GCS buckets, assign the GCS service agent only the key roles it needs, and manage key rotation separately from bucket IAM.
- Evidence:
- encryption posture: default_kms_key_name is unset; customer_managed_encryption is false
#### GCS sensitive bucket versioning is disabled
- STRIDE category: Denial of Service
- Affected resources: `google_storage_bucket.logs`
- Trust boundary: `not-applicable`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +0, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +0, blast_radius +1, final_score 3 => medium
- Rationale: google_storage_bucket.logs stores sensitive GCS data without bucket versioning. Accidental overwrites, deletes, or destructive changes have fewer object-level recovery options.
- Recommended mitigation: Enable bucket versioning for sensitive GCS buckets and pair it with lifecycle retention rules that match recovery objectives and storage cost constraints.
- Evidence:
- data protection posture: versioning.enabled is false; data_sensitivity is sensitive
#### Internet-exposed GCP compute instance permits broad ingress
- STRIDE category: Spoofing
- Affected resources: `google_compute_instance.web`, `google_compute_firewall.public_ssh`
- Trust boundary: `internet-to-service:internet->google_compute_instance.web`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +2, privilege_breadth +0, data_sensitivity +0, lateral_movement +1, blast_radius +1, final_score 4 => medium
- Rationale: google_compute_instance.web has an external access config and matching GCP firewall rules allow administrative access or all ports from the public internet. That broad ingress raises the chance of unauthenticated probing and credential attacks.
- Recommended mitigation: Restrict GCP firewall source ranges and exposed ports, remove external IP access where possible, and use Identity-Aware Proxy, VPN, or a controlled bastion for administration.
- Evidence:
- firewall rules: google_compute_firewall.public_ssh ingress tcp 22 from 0.0.0.0/0
- network tags: web
- public exposure reasons: compute instance has an external access config and matching firewall rules allow internet ingress
#### Sensitive GCP resource IAM binding allows broad or external access
- STRIDE category: Information Disclosure
- Affected resources: `google_kms_crypto_key.customer`, `google_kms_crypto_key_iam_member.partner_decrypter`
- Trust boundary: `not-applicable`
- Severity reasoning: internet_exposure +0, privilege_breadth +1, data_sensitivity +2, lateral_movement +1, blast_radius +1, final_score 5 => medium
- Rationale: google_kms_crypto_key.customer grants `roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyDecrypter` to `serviceAccount:decryptor@partner-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com` through GCP IAM. Public, broad-domain, or foreign-project principals can access sensitive secrets or cryptographic key operations outside the expected project trust boundary.
- Recommended mitigation: Grant Secret Manager and Cloud KMS IAM roles only to specific in-project service accounts or groups, remove public principals, and require explicit cross-project access reviews for partner identities.
- Evidence:
- iam binding: source=google_kms_crypto_key_iam_member.partner_decrypter; role=roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyDecrypter; member=serviceAccount:decryptor@partner-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com
- trust scope: service account belongs to project `partner-project`, outside resource project `tfstride-demo`
- resource policy sources: google_kms_crypto_key_iam_member.partner_decrypter
### Low
No findings in this severity band.
## Limitations / Unsupported Resources
- GCP support currently provides initial inventory normalization, internet-to-service, route/NAT posture, and workload-to-sensitive-data trust-boundary detection, with limited GCP STRIDE rule coverage for compute, GCS posture, Cloud SQL posture, Secret Manager, Cloud KMS, and project IAM only; GCP control coverage is not implemented yet.
- The engine reasons over Terraform planned values only and does not validate runtime drift, CloudTrail evidence, or post-deploy control-plane activity.
