Frequently asked questions

When should I attach AmazonODBNetworkAdmin?

The Oracle Database@AWS User Guide says you can attach it to your IAM identities to set up and manage networking resources for Oracle Database@AWS. Add the VPC Lattice, placement group and EC2 networking permissions it lists as missing through a customer managed policy.

What does AmazonODBNetworkAdmin grant?

On all resources it allows odb actions to create, update, delete and list ODB networks and peering connections, and put, get and delete resource policies. It allows ec2:DescribeAvailabilityZones, ec2:DescribeVpcs and ODB network peering create, modify and delete actions, and creating the odb.amazonaws.com and vpc-lattice.amazonaws.com service-linked roles.

What are the security risks of AmazonODBNetworkAdmin?

The policy can delete ODB networks, peering connections and network peerings, change resource policies and create two service-linked roles, all on all resources. AWS managed policies don't grant least privilege permissions, and an AWS update to the policy affects every identity it is attached to.
