            This is because you have different versions of protobuf in the classpath. Use some shade plugins to rename the proto class in the final build jar.

            QUESTION

            What benefit is KMS s3 encryption in terms of security if IAM is already controlling access?
            Asked 2020-Jul-26 at 13:08

            What if we have 2 private s3 buckets, one with SSE-KMS named: bucket-kms, one with no encryption: bucket-no-kms.

            What is the benefit in security other than the consumer needing the additional KMS permissions? It feels like to me it is giving an additional sanity check, such as if somebody accidentally made bucket-kms public, or you granted access to some other identity, these mistakes would be protected against by also needing access to the KSM key, whereas bucket-no-kms would be exposed. But that isn't really additional security that is merely more difficult to make a mistake.

            As far as security benefits the only scenario I can think of is if it were possible for a person to physically gain access to the particular hardware your s3 bucket was using they could read your vanilla data, and that would make a good case to use SSE-.., but again I would assume that this scenario is something AWS protects against in their processies .

            I would also assume that the hardware for S3 is only used for that, and that there is no way to read what somebody else wrote to a particular s3 key, after they delete that bucket, so nobody could happen to read your data in an EBS volume by change etc.

            I'm aware of other benefits as enable cloudtrail logs on your KMS key to again see who is reading your data, being able to write key policies etc. But is there any other security benefits I am missing other than that of what I have already stated that makes using KMS with s3 inherently more secure? I from my perspective I could still make organizational SCPs or IAM permission boundaries which could achieve these same extra permissions protections, similar to what SSE-KMS gives you.

            TLDR;

            What I am really asking is if IAM is going to block a hacker from getting to data in my bucket one way or another, what do I need KMS for?

            The primary benefit is that your data is encrypted at rest.

            The decision of when to use this comes down to if the data is sensitive in S3 (including DB backups) you should really encrypt it, the price is negligible for storing but if it became compromised (whether that's through access to your AWS console or CLI) the user cannot access this.

            KMS uses envelope encryption for storing objects, the process can be a bit complicated but the general premise is the following:

            • When you upload an object the S3 service will reach out to your KMS CMK (Customer Master Key) to generate a data encryption key. This data encryption key will be used to encrypt your object, then attached with your S3 object meta-data after being both base 64 encoded and encrypted by the CMK (This is provided to you).
            • When you retrieve an object via S3, the S3 service will use the CMK to decrypt the data encryption key that was attached to your S3 object. Once this is decrypted the unencrypted data encryption key is used to decrypt the object then return it.

            The data encryption key is very key here, the process (known as envelope encryption) actually requires 2 separate encryption keys to retrieve the object. When combined with key policies this helps to mitigate against data leakage even if you was compromised.

            I am learning to create AWS Lambdas. I want to create a "chain": S3 -> 4 Chained Lambda()'s -> RDS. I can't get the first lambda to call the second
            Asked 2020-Jul-18 at 11:19

            I really tried everything. Surprisingly google has not many answers when it comes to this.

            When a certain .csv file is uploaded to a S3 bucket I want to parse it and place the data into a RDS database.

            My goal is to learn the lambda serverless technology, this is essentially an exercise. Thus, I over-engineered the hell out of it.

            Here is how it goes:

            1. S3 Trigger when the .csv is uploaded -> call lambda (this part fully works)
            2. AAA_Thomas_DailyOverframeS3CsvToAnalytics_DownloadCsv downloads the csv from S3 and finishes with essentially the plaintext of the file. It is then supposed to pass it to the next lambda. The way I am trying to do this is by putting the second lambda as destination. The function works, but the second lambda is never called and I don't know why.
            3. AAA_Thomas_DailyOverframeS3CsvToAnalytics_ParseCsv gets the plaintext as input and returns a javascript object with the parsed data.
            4. AAA_Thomas_DailyOverframeS3CsvToAnalytics_DecryptRDSPass only connects to KMS, gets the encrcypted RDS password, and passes it along with the data it received as input to the last lambda.
            5. AAA_Thomas_DailyOverframeS3CsvToAnalytics_PutDataInRds then finally puts the data in RDS.

            I created a custom VPC with custom subnets, route tables, gateways, peering connections, etc. I don't know if this is relevant but function 2. only has access to the s3 endpoint, 3. does not have any internet access whatsoever, 4. is the only one that has normal internet access (it's the only way to connect to KSM), and 5. only has access to the peered VPC which hosts the RDS.

            This is the code of the first lambda:

            Rather than getting each Lambda to call the next one take a look at AWS managed service for state machines, step functions which can handle this workflow for you.

            By providing input and outputs you can pass output to the next function, with retry logic built into it.

            If you haven't much experience AWS has a tutorial on setting up a step function through chaining Lambdas.

            By using this you also will not need to account for configuration issues such as Lambda timeouts. In addition it allows your code to be more modular which improves testing the individual functionality, whilst also isolating issues.

            You can swap keywords for regular strings, and you can use Set instead of List for the keys. Also, since this is constant data, store the lookup table in static member to avoid recreating it on every call. Eg.

            How long does memory written with memset() stay in memory without calling free()?
            Asked 2019-Aug-03 at 05:56

            On Linux.

            Hi. I'm sure there are many factors involved where the OS simply garbage-dumps memory allocated with memset() without calling free(), but I was wondering if anyone has a good estimation on this? That's really all I want to know.

            There is a functionality in linux called KSM that saves memory space by combining matching data. My question revolves around detecting if KSM is working or not by checking the write time of the data. I have already successfully tested this on a machine while running everything in one program. Now I want to upload to memory, close the program, then open another program and test for memory duplication.

            Thanks!

            Let's talk about abstractions:

            • A C programmer writes software for a "C abstract machine". This has nothing to do with any real hardware.

            • The "C abstract machine" is converted into something (e.g. an executable file) that runs in some kind of "process" abstraction. This "process" abstraction has nothing to do with any real hardware (it uses "threads" and not real CPUs, "virtual memory" and not real RAM, "files" and not real disk space, ...).

            • The OS creates the "process" abstraction on top of a machine. For KSM (where the OS is running inside a virtual machine) this "virtual machine" abstraction has nothing to do with any real hardware.

            Now; let's define "abstraction" as a deliberate lie intended to shield people from reality (and let's also define "security vulnerability" as a flaw in the lie).

            To determine the relationship between "memory in the C abstraction machine" and actual physical resources (RAM chips, disk space, etc) at any point in time; you need to break through a minimum of 3 barriers deliberately designed to prevent you from knowing the relationship.

            It's been a long haul, but I've finally worked out how to do what I want to. The following works for me.

            Firstly, I discovered the method validateForm in WebformHandlerBase. On each page in a form with multiple pages, you will find that the following methods are called in the order given here:

            • submitForm (called once)
            • alterForm(called possibly more than once)
            • validateForm (called once)

            The name validateForm leads me to believe I may be misusing this method, but that is where I set up the elements on the following page that I wish to programmatically initialise. It works, so what the hey!

            In validateForm, I initialise the elements that appear on the following page as follows:

            Fortran how to write non-zero elements
            Asked 2018-Sep-11 at 20:42

            I am trying to debug a huge program not written by me by writing out a large selection of the variables into text files. Some are arrays and some are single values.

            The arrays were declared with huge initial sizes due to the code being incomplete and people didn't want to use the allocation method as no one knew how many more things would be added to the code. As a result, if I just straight up print out the entire variable, it would also print out the millions of zeros which I don't need and make the file much larger than necessary.

            I searched for a way to write out non-zero elements and another post here had answers pointing to the pack() function.

            However, pack() seems to have a size limit since visual studio would not even go into the lines that actually calls pack - visual studio would enter chkstk.asm upon entering the subroutine that writes the variables and return a stack overflow error before executing any of the lines inside the subroutine (the first few lines in the subroutine are just opening file and writing non-array variables).

            So, what else can I do to write out all the non-zero elements inside these huge arrays?

            The beginning of the subroutine is shown below:
