Dit is moontlik om openbare toegang tot die databasis vanaf die internet te gee. Die aanvaller sal steeds die gebruikersnaam en wagwoord, IAM-toegang, of 'n exploit moet ken om in die databasis in te gaan.
Openbare RDS-skyfies
AWS maak dit moontlik om enigeen toegang te gee om RDS-skyfies af te laai. Jy kan hierdie openbare RDS-skyfies baie maklik lys vanaf jou eie rekening:
# Public RDS snapshotsawsrdsdescribe-db-snapshots--include-public## Search by account IDaws rds describe-db-snapshots --include-public --query 'DBSnapshots[?contains(DBSnapshotIdentifier, `284546856933:`) == `true`]'
## To share a RDS snapshot with everybody the RDS DB cannot be encrypted (so the snapshot won't be encryted)## To share a RDS encrypted snapshot you need to share the KMS key also with the account# From the own account you can check if there is any public snapshot with:awsrdsdescribe-db-snapshots--snapshot-typepublic [--region us-west-2]## Even if in the console appear as there are public snapshot it might be public## snapshots from other accounts used by the current account
