In the navigation pane, choose Account settings. In the Password policy section, choose Change password policy. If you already have an account, you should login now. Verify Password.

Tl;dr:Copy & Paste the script and source it into your shell. But since this is about handling your secrets, you should know what is it doing and why.

Passwords secure your digital identity and everybody knows to keep them save. As its usage skyrocketed, more sophisticated users use password manager as the trade-off seems to favor completely unique passwords over the possible compromitation of the manager1.

Yet the computers that belong to the sophisticated users—developers—are often littered with passwords stored in clear text. Both SSH private key as well as AWS API key is a password in disguise and I’ve been always bothered that the default is to just dump it into ~/.aws/credentials.

In a company setting, this can be solved in various ways, but all are fairly complicated for individual developers. I gravitated towards 1Password as my personal password manager and decided to use it for storing the AWS credentials as well.

Since I am using the subscription service2, I have decided to use a dedicated vault for my keys and put it into an online vault, also because it makes my cross-platform scripting easier. If you still favor locally stored vaults for privacy reasons, the scripts below will not work for you.

Requirements

  • 1Password CLI installed and you signed in once (run op signin https://my.1password.com/ youremail@example.com and see the linked page for details)
  • Locally-installed jq package (because I am lazy)
  • AWS account with generated AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
  • 1Password Vault named “Dev” with a Login called “AWS Key”, where username is your AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and password is your AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY (configurable; change below)

The Script

Put this script anywhere, ~/bin/enter-aws-session would be a good place. Note that in order for environment variables to be properly propagated, you have to source the script, not just run it:

Here’s the non-magic. Configure the item name and the region.

How it works

The op (presumably One Password) connects to 1Password service via HTTPS API3. API returns the first item that matches configured ITEM_NAME4. The username and password retrieved from that item are then exported as the appropriate variables to the environment.

Note that as mentioned earlier, in order for those variables to be exported in the parent terminal process, you mustsource the script instead of just running it.

The Modifications

Definitely change your Valt Name, Item Name and Region based on your preferences. If you are using any other 1Password than the shared one on my subdomain, you probably need to change the OP_SESSION variable check.

Above can be easily altered to accept command line arguments, but I actually prefer to have multiple scripts per each of my “roles” and just change the values in the header.

You may want to store the key pair in secure note or some other container. In that case, look at the $VAULT_CONTENT variable to alter the query properly.

Again, the script uses ITEM_NAME as a unique key and random things will happen if you put in multiple logins under the same name. That resulting computer fire is on you.

The Alternatives and The Disclaimers

Alternative ways to handling the secrets include:

  • Your OS’s “default” secret chain:

    • Keychain on MAC OS X
    • DPAPI on Windows
    • One of the zilion kinda-working alternatives on Linux: libsecret, Gnome.Keyring, KWallet, …

  • Command-line password manager (like pass on Unix)

  • Full-blown secret handling solution like Vault

  • Giving up, crying and relying on operating system privileges (encrypting hard drive and having secrets in clear text files)

Your secrets are of course still easily discoverable in your env vars, but this at least isolates you better from other programs.

It should also be noted that I am an unemployed writer, not a security engineer. If you are using this at work, this may violate your security policies and send your credentials to RussianChinese American hackers.

  1. Although they do have surprising architectural vulnerabilities as outlined in this 2019 ISE report: https://www.ise.io/casestudies/password-manager-hacking/↩︎

  2. Apparently a future for 1password with one-time fee licensing being deprecated and buried. Although I don’t like it, I understand why they do it from business perspective. ↩︎

  3. In order to do that, you need working connection to your vault; here I assume my.1password.com. I consider this reasonable assumption given you are going to connect to AWS and cloud, but you may need to adjust your proxy or VPN settings accordingly. ↩︎

  4. Uniqueness could be guaranteed using uuid attribute instead of the name, but in that case, one would have to manually inspect for it using the CLI or parse it from the URL you are able to export. Having a dedicated vault with sensible and unique names sounds like a better option for personal usage. ↩︎
