Control: ECS task definitions should not share the host's process namespace

Description

This control checks if AWS ECS task definitions are configured to share a host's process namespace with its containers. The control fails if the task definition shares the host's process namespace with the containers running on it.

Usage

Run the control in your terminal:

powerpipe control run aws_compliance.control.ecs_task_definition_no_host_pid_mode

Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:

powerpipe login
powerpipe control run aws_compliance.control.ecs_task_definition_no_host_pid_mode --share

SQL

This control uses a named query:

select
task_definition_arn as resource,
case
when pid_mode = 'host' then 'alarm'
else 'ok'
end as status,
case
when pid_mode = 'host' then title || ' shares the host process namespace.'
else title || ' does not share the host process namespace.'
end as reason
, region, account_id
from
aws_ecs_task_definition;
