Review who can actually read a managed secret: a secrets-manager or vault access policy that grants read to a broader principal set than the secret's consumers, a resource policy and an identity policy that combine to admit an unintended reader, a wildcard on the secret name or path that sweeps in unrelated secrets, and a decryption grant on the underlying key that widens access beyond the store's own policy. Covers cloud secrets managers and vault-style stores where the effective read set is…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Reviewing secrets-manager access-policy trust: who can actually read the secret A managed secrets store is only as strong as the policy that decides who reads each secret, and that decision is rarely written in one place. The effective read set is the union of the secret's resource policy, the identity policies of every principal in the account, and the permission to decrypt the key that protects the secret. A secret can look locked down on its resource policy while a broad identity policy elsewhere grants read on every secret, or while a wide key-decrypt grant lets a principal decrypt what the store would otherwise deny. Wildcards on secret names or paths quietly sweep in unrelated secrets. You review these by computing who the combined policy actually admits and comparing that to the secret's intended consumers. ## When to use - Applications fetch secrets from a managed secrets manager or a vault-style store. - Access is governed by a combination of resource policy, identity policy, and key-decrypt permission. - Secret names or paths are matched by wildcard in any policy that grants read. ## Scope check …

How to install
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/reviewing-secrets-manager-access-policy-trust@sha256:70d82e711433141aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260827.b5f41a4, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
