fix(aws): treat security groups on Batch compute environments as used#12458hackertwinten wants to merge 3 commits into
Conversation
A Batch compute environment keeps its security groups in configuration while scaled down to zero instances, so no ENI exists to reveal the association and ec2_securitygroup_not_used reported a false positive. Describe compute environments in the Batch service and expose their security groups through security_groups_in_use, mirroring the existing Lambda handling. Fix prowler-cloud#3264

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe Batch service now discovers compute environments and tracks their security groups. The EC2 unused-security-group check treats those groups as used, including environments scaled to zero instances. Tests cover discovery, filtering, lookup failures, associations, and integration behavior. ChangesBatch security-group usage
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to A Batch API failure can make configured security groups appear unused and produce false failure findings, so the change is not merge-ready until this error path is fixed or explicitly accepted by the owner.

discovery succeeds. Add coverage simulating AccessDeniedException and verify no

…y fails Listing compute environments can fail for a region, typically when batch:DescribeComputeEnvironments is denied. An empty result then means the security group associations are unknown, not absent, and reporting a group as unused would be a guess. Track the affected regions in the Batch service and skip security groups in those regions in ec2_securitygroup_not_used unless another signal already proves the group is in use.

Dropping the finding hid the security group from the report entirely, which loses the resource rather than explaining it. Keep the default PASS and state that Batch usage could not be verified for the region.
Context
ec2_securitygroup_not_usedreports a security group as unused when it has zero attached network interfaces, is not referenced by a Lambda function, and is not referenced by another security group.An AWS Batch compute environment keeps its security groups in its
computeResourcesconfiguration, but a managed compute environment scaled down to zero instances has no running instance and therefore no ENI. The security group satisfies all three conditions and gets reported asFAILeven though detaching or deleting it would break the compute environment.This was reported in January 2024 and could not be addressed at the time because the
batchservice was not covered yet. It is covered now, so the fix is straightforward.Fix #3264
Description
Extends the Batch service with compute environments and consumes them from the EC2 check, mirroring the existing Lambda handling (
awslambda_service.pycollectsVpcConfig.SecurityGroupIdsintosecurity_groups_in_use, and the check reads that set).prowler/providers/aws/services/batch/batch_service.pyBatchComputeEnvironmentmodel (name, arn, region, security groups, subnets)._describe_compute_environmentsregional call, paginated, honouringaudit_resourcesfiltering and logging errors with the region.security_groups_in_useset populated fromcomputeResources.securityGroupIds.prowler/providers/aws/services/ec2/ec2_securitygroup_not_used/ec2_securitygroup_not_used.pysg_in_batchto the unused condition.ec2_securitygroup_not_used.metadata.jsonDescriptionenumerates the detection criteria explicitly, so Batch compute environment associations were added to it.Two notes for reviewers:
batch_clientinto the check means any scan runningec2_securitygroup_not_usedwill initialise the Batch service and issue one additionalDescribeComputeEnvironmentscall per region. This is the same tradeoff already accepted for Lambda.batch:DescribeComputeEnvironmentsis covered by the same managed policies that already allow the existingbatch:DescribeJobDefinitionscall, so no permission changes are required.Steps to review
sg_in_batchinec2_securitygroup_not_used.py.__threading_call__, pagination,is_resource_filtered,logger.errorin theexceptblock.New coverage:
batch_service_test.py: compute environments described, no compute environments,UNMANAGEDcompute environment with nocomputeResourcesblock, andaudit_resourcesfiltering.ec2_securitygroup_not_used_test.py: a security group used only by a Batch compute environment now returnsPASS, covered both with a mocked client and end to end against a moto-created compute environment. The five pre-existing tests were updated to patchbatch_client.To confirm the new tests are not vacuous, remove
and not sg_in_batchfrom the check and re-run: exactly the two new check tests fail.I also ran the surrounding suites —
