Reason for Proposed Changes

  • Currently there is no query to ensure that a "google_sql_database_instance" resource with a "SQLSERVER" based "database_version" has the 'user options' flag set to 0.

  • Quoting CIS_Google_Cloud_Platform_Foundation_Benchmark_v4.0.0 page 253: "It is recommended that, user options database flag for Cloud SQL SQL Server instance should not be configured. A user can override these defaults set with user options by using the SET statement. Some of these features/options could adversely affect the security of the system if enabled.

Proposed Changes

  • Implemented the missing query.
  • The query will flag for a specific instance : (after ensuring "database_version" is SQLSERVER based (possible values list))
    • Setting the "user options" flag to a value that is not "0" (default value is 0)

Tenable reference
