# Work Summary: Phase 5.5 - Secrets Management Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: January 14, 2026
|
||||
**Phase**: Phase 5.5 - Worker Service Secret Management
|
||||
**Status**: ✅ COMPLETE
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Implemented a comprehensive secrets management system for the Attune Worker Service, enabling secure storage, retrieval, and injection of secrets into action execution environments. The system uses AES-256-GCM encryption for secrets at rest and provides a hierarchical ownership model for flexible secret scoping.
|
||||
|
||||
## Objectives Completed
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Core Secret Management Module ✅
|
||||
- **File**: `crates/worker/src/secrets.rs`
|
||||
- **Features**:
|
||||
- `SecretManager` struct for centralized secret operations
|
||||
- Fetch secrets by ownership hierarchy (system → pack → action)
|
||||
- Decrypt encrypted secrets on-demand
|
||||
- Transform secrets to environment variables
|
||||
- Key hash validation for encryption key verification
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Encryption Implementation ✅
|
||||
- **Algorithm**: AES-256-GCM (Authenticated Encryption)
|
||||
- **Key Derivation**: SHA-256 hash of configured password
|
||||
- **Format**: `nonce:ciphertext` (Base64-encoded)
|
||||
- **Security Features**:
|
||||
- Random nonce generation for each encryption
|
||||
- Authentication tag prevents tampering
|
||||
- Key hash validation ensures correct decryption key
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Integration with ActionExecutor ✅
|
||||
- Modified `ActionExecutor` to include `SecretManager`
|
||||
- Automatic secret fetching during execution context preparation
|
||||
- Seamless injection of secrets as environment variables
|
||||
- Graceful handling of missing secrets (warning, not failure)
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Hierarchical Secret Ownership ✅
|
||||
- **System-level secrets**: Available to all actions
|
||||
- **Pack-level secrets**: Available to all actions in a pack
|
||||
- **Action-level secrets**: Available to specific action only
|
||||
- **Override behavior**: More specific secrets override less specific ones
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Testing ✅
|
||||
- **6 unit tests** covering:
|
||||
- Encryption/decryption round-trip
|
||||
- Different values produce different ciphertexts
|
||||
- Wrong key decryption fails correctly
|
||||
- Environment variable name transformation
|
||||
- Key hash computation
|
||||
- Invalid format handling
|
||||
- **All tests passing** (23 total in worker service)
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Documentation ✅
|
||||
- **File**: `docs/secrets-management.md` (367 lines)
|
||||
- **Contents**:
|
||||
- Architecture overview
|
||||
- Secret ownership hierarchy
|
||||
- Encryption format specification
|
||||
- Configuration examples
|
||||
- Usage examples (Python/Shell actions)
|
||||
- Security best practices
|
||||
- Troubleshooting guide
|
||||
- API reference
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Dependencies Added
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
aes-gcm = "0.10" # AES-256-GCM encryption
|
||||
sha2 = "0.10" # SHA-256 hashing
|
||||
base64 = "0.21" # Base64 encoding
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Components
|
||||
|
||||
#### SecretManager
|
||||
```rust
|
||||
pub struct SecretManager {
|
||||
pool: PgPool,
|
||||
encryption_key: Option<Vec<u8>>,
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Methods**:
|
||||
- `fetch_secrets_for_action()` - Fetches all relevant secrets
|
||||
- `decrypt_if_needed()` - Decrypts encrypted secrets
|
||||
- `encrypt_value()` - Encrypts plaintext values
|
||||
- `prepare_secret_env()` - Transforms to env vars
|
||||
|
||||
#### Encryption Flow
|
||||
1. Derive 256-bit key from password using SHA-256
|
||||
2. Generate 12-byte random nonce
|
||||
3. Encrypt using AES-256-GCM
|
||||
4. Format as `base64(nonce):base64(ciphertext)`
|
||||
5. Store encrypted value in database
|
||||
|
||||
#### Decryption Flow
|
||||
1. Parse `nonce:ciphertext` format
|
||||
2. Validate encryption key hash (if present)
|
||||
3. Decode Base64 components
|
||||
4. Decrypt using AES-256-GCM
|
||||
5. Return plaintext value
|
||||
|
||||
#### Secret Injection Flow
|
||||
```
|
||||
ActionExecutor.prepare_execution_context()
|
||||
↓
|
||||
SecretManager.fetch_secrets_for_action()
|
||||
→ Query system secrets
|
||||
→ Query pack secrets
|
||||
→ Query action secrets
|
||||
→ Merge with override behavior
|
||||
↓
|
||||
SecretManager.decrypt_if_needed()
|
||||
→ Check if encrypted
|
||||
→ Validate key hash
|
||||
→ Decrypt value
|
||||
↓
|
||||
SecretManager.prepare_secret_env()
|
||||
→ Transform names: api_key → SECRET_API_KEY
|
||||
→ Return HashMap<String, String>
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Inject into ExecutionContext.env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Variable Naming
|
||||
|
||||
Secret names are transformed to environment variables:
|
||||
- Prefix: `SECRET_`
|
||||
- Convert to uppercase
|
||||
- Replace hyphens with underscores
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
- `api_key` → `SECRET_API_KEY`
|
||||
- `db-password` → `SECRET_DB_PASSWORD`
|
||||
- `oauth_token` → `SECRET_OAUTH_TOKEN`
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Configuration
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
security:
|
||||
encryption_key: "your-secret-encryption-password"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or via environment variable:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
export ATTUNE__SECURITY__ENCRYPTION_KEY="your-encryption-key"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage Example
|
||||
|
||||
### Storing a Secret (via API)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/keys \
|
||||
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
|
||||
-d '{
|
||||
"ref": "mypack.api_key",
|
||||
"owner_type": "pack",
|
||||
"owner_pack": 1,
|
||||
"name": "api_key",
|
||||
"value": "sk_live_abc123",
|
||||
"encrypted": true
|
||||
}'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Accessing in Python Action
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import os
|
||||
|
||||
api_key = os.environ.get('SECRET_API_KEY')
|
||||
print(f"Using API key: {api_key[:8]}...")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
### Implemented
|
||||
✅ AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption
|
||||
✅ Random nonce per encryption operation
|
||||
✅ Key hash validation
|
||||
✅ Secrets not logged or exposed in artifacts
|
||||
✅ Environment variable isolation
|
||||
✅ Hierarchical ownership for least privilege
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommendations (Documented)
|
||||
- Use strong encryption keys (32+ characters)
|
||||
- Store encryption key in external secrets manager
|
||||
- Never log secret values
|
||||
- Plan for key rotation
|
||||
- Regular secret reviews and rotation
|
||||
|
||||
