CSPACE-IAM-INHERIT-01: No sensitive role is granted to a public principal at a folder/org ancestor

Property Value
Severity high
Platform GCP Confidential Space (AMD SEV-SNP)
Lifecycle stage deploy
Mode Passive: read-only cloud API calls.

What it checks

It passes when:

  • No public principal holds a sensitive role at a folder/org ancestor.

Example failures:

  • … public grant(s) of a sensitive role inherited from an ancestor: …. These reach the workload's keys/identity without appearing in any resource policy.
  • … public grant(s) of a sensitive role inherited from an ancestor — they reach the workload's keys/identity.

How to fix

  • Remove allUsers/allAuthenticatedUsers grants of sensitive roles at the folder/org level; scope access to specific attested principals.

After the fix, scan again: the check should report PASS.

When it is not assessed

SKIP:

  • Need --gcp-project; skipping check.

ERROR:

  • Could not read ancestor IAM: …
