Introduction

If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, then look no further!

Have you ever wished you could easily filter sensitive output from a terraform plan or terraform apply?
Do you use terraform providers that leak sensitive data to stdout (e.g. terraform-github-provider)?

Yes? Great! Then this utility is for you.

The tfmask utility will replace the "old value" and the "new value" with the masking character (e.g. *).

NOTE: tfmask will preserve the name of the nodes in the graph

Usage

NOTE: The utility supports a number of configuration settings which can be passed via environment variables.

Environment Variable	Description	Default
`TFMASK_CHAR`	Character used to mask all output	`*`
`TFMASK_VALUES_REGEX`	Regular expression used to match values	[see code]
`TFMASK_RESOURCES_REGEX`	Regular expression used to match resources	[see code]

IMPORTANT: Pass -no-color to terraform plan and terraform apply for proper parsing

The basic usage looks like this. We're going to run terraform plan and filter it through tfmask:

terraform plan -no-color | tfmask

Direnv

You can use tfmask with direnv to set the defaults.

Example .envrc:

# Export terraform environment
export TFMASK_CHAR="#"
export TFMASK_VALUES_REGEX="(?i)^.*[^a-zA-Z](oauth|secret|token|password|key|result|id).*$"

<details> <summary>Example of Masked Output</summary>

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  ~ module.atlantis.module.web_app.module.ecs_codepipeline.aws_codepipeline.source_build_deploy
      stage.0.action.0.configuration.%:          "4" => "5"
      stage.0.action.0.configuration.OAuthToken: "" => "*******************************************"

Plan: 0 to add, 1 to change, 0 to destroy.

</details>

Examples

Compiling the Binary

make go/build

Use with Terraform Plan

Many terraform providers unintentionally leak sensitive information when running terraform plan. This is very bad.

<details> <summary>Example of a Leaked Secret from a Terraform Plan</summary>

An execution plan has been generated and is shown below.
Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  ~ update in-place

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  ~ module.example.aws_codepipeline.source_build_deploy
      stage.0.action.0.configuration.%:          "4" => "5"
      stage.0.action.0.configuration.OAuthToken: "" => "efba05dbe9b94ba18ae3737a6d6de16eefba05dbe9b9"
Plan: 0 to add, 1 to change, 0 to destroy.

NOTE: This OAuthToken is just an example and not a valid token.

</details>

Using tfmask, the output from terraform plan will be masked like this:

terraform plan -no-color | tfmask

      stage.0.action.0.configuration.OAuthToken: "" => ********************************************"

Use with Terraform Apply

Many terraform providers unintentionally leak sensitive information when running terraform apply. This is very bad.

<details> <summary>Example of a Leaked Secret from a Terraform Apply</summary>

terraform apply
module.example.aws_codepipeline.source_build_deploy: Modifying... (ID: example-codepipeline)
  stage.0.action.0.configuration.%:          "4" => "5"
  stage.0.action.0.configuration.OAuthToken: "" => "efba05dbe9b94ba18ae3737a6d6de16eefba05dbe9b9"
module.example.aws_codepipeline.source_build_deploy: Modifications complete after 1s (ID: example-codepipeline)

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 1 changed, 0 destroyed.

NOTE: This OAuthToken is just an example and not a valid token.

</details>

Using tfmask, the output from terraform apply will be masked like this:

terraform apply -no-color | tfmask

<details> <summary>Example of Masked Terraform Apply Output</summary>

module.example.aws_codepipeline.source_build_deploy: Modifying... (ID: example-codepipeline)
  stage.0.action.0.configuration.%:          "4" => "5"
  stage.0.action.0.configuration.OAuthToken: "" => "********************************************"                                                 
module.example.aws_codepipeline.source_build_deploy: Modifications complete after 1s (ID: example-codepipeline)

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 1 changed, 0 destroyed.
