Database

Aws Ssl Not Required

Description

Detects AWS Redshift clusters that do not require SSL/TLS encryption for client connections. When SSL is not enforced, database connections can be established without encryption, potentially exposing sensitive data in transit between clients and the Redshift cluster.

Weakness:

165 - Insecure service configuration - AWS

Category: Functionality Abuse

Detection Strategy

    Examines all Redshift clusters in the specified AWS region

    Inspects each cluster's parameter groups to check the 'require_ssl' parameter configuration

    Reports a vulnerability when a cluster's parameter group has 'require_ssl' set to 'false'

    Includes the cluster identifier, parameter name, and parameter value in the vulnerability report
