serverless-associate-waf-v3

Associate a regional WAF with the AWS API Gateway used by your Serverless stack.

This is based off serverless-associate-waf, essentially all the same code and retains the same licensing. The fork is due to it (seemingly) being abandoned and having many old dependencies. For a project I was working on I needed to update a few things and wanted to upgrade it to the Serverless Plugin architecture v3, thus the naming.

Main changes:

• Upgrade to Serverless Plugin v3
• Utilize v3 logging methodology
• Utilize getAccountInfo to get the partition of the arn (required for govcloud to work)
• Upgrade dependencies and tests
• When failing to associate or disassociate the waf, throw a ServerlessError to stop the deploy vs silently failing and allowing to proceed

Install

npm install serverless-associate-waf-v3 --save-dev

Configuration

Add the plugin to your serverless.yml:

plugins:
  - serverless-associate-waf-v3

Associating a Regional WAF with the API Gateway

Add your custom configuration:

custom:
  associateWaf:
    name: myRegionalWaf
    version: Regional #(optional) Regional | V2

| Property | Required | Type | Default | Description | |----------|----------|----------|---------|----------------------------------------------------------------| | name | true | string | | The name of the regional WAF to associate the API Gateway with | | version| false | string | Regional| The AWS WAF version to be used|

You will also need to add extra permissions to the user if it does not already include the following - consider this an example only, you can restrict it further:

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs18.x
  region: us-west-1
  endpointType: REGIONAL
  iam:
    role:
      statements:
        - Effect: Allow
          Action:
            - apigateway:SetWebACL
          Resource:
            - 'arn:aws:apigateway:us-west-1::/*/*'
        - Effect: Allow
          Action:
            - wafv2:ListWebACLs
            - wafv2:AssociateWebACL
            - wafv2:DisassociateWebACL
            - wafv2:GetWebACLForResource
          Resource:
            - 'arn:aws:wafv2:us-west-1:ACCOUNTNUMBER:regional/webacl/*/*'

Disassociating a Regional WAF from the API Gateway

Remove the name property from your custom configuration but keep the version if specified, and then deploy the application. The plugin must stay in the plugins list of serverless.yml in order for the WAF to be disassociated.

Usage

Configuration of your serverless.yml is all you need.

There are no custom commands, just run: sls deploy
