Sql local infile flag remediation

Using Console

Using CLI

To remediate the MySQL Local Infile Flag Should Be Disabled misconfiguration in GCP using GCP CLI, you can follow these steps:

Open the Cloud Shell in the GCP Console.
Run the following command to check the current status of the local_infile flag:

gcloud sql instances describe [INSTANCE_NAME] --format="get(settings.flags.local_infile)"

Replace [INSTANCE_NAME] with the name of your Cloud SQL instance.

If the output is ON, then the local_infile flag is enabled and needs to be disabled.
Run the following command to disable the local_infile flag:

gcloud sql instances patch [INSTANCE_NAME] --database-flags local_infile=0

Replace [INSTANCE_NAME] with the name of your Cloud SQL instance.

Verify that the local_infile flag is now disabled by running the first command again. The output should be 0.
Repeat these steps for any other Cloud SQL instances that have the local_infile flag enabled.

By following these steps, you should be able to remediate the MySQL Local Infile Flag Should Be Disabled misconfiguration in GCP using GCP CLI.

Using Python

To remediate the MySQL Local Infile Flag misconfiguration in GCP using Python, you can follow the below steps:

Connect to the GCP project where the instance is running using the Python client library.
Get the instance details using the compute.instances().get() method.
Check if the MySQL instance is running on the instance.
If MySQL is running, SSH into the instance using the paramiko library.
Execute the following command to edit the MySQL configuration file:
```
sudo nano /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf
```
Add the following line to the [mysqld] section of the file:
```
local_infile=0
```
Save and close the file.
Restart the MySQL service using the following command:
```
sudo service mysql restart
```
Verify that the MySQL Local Infile Flag is disabled by running the following command:
```
mysql -u <username> -p -e "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'local_infile'"
```
If the output is local_infile | OFF, then the MySQL Local Infile Flag is disabled.

Here’s the sample Python code to remediate the MySQL Local Infile Flag misconfiguration in GCP:

import paramiko
from google.oauth2 import service_account
from googleapiclient.discovery import build

# Set the GCP project ID and instance name
project_id = 'your-project-id'
instance_name = 'your-instance-name'

# Set the path to the service account key file
key_path = 'path/to/key.json'

# Create the credentials object
credentials = service_account.Credentials.from_service_account_file(key_path)

# Create the Compute Engine client object
compute = build('compute', 'v1', credentials=credentials)

# Get the instance details
instance = compute.instances().get(project=project_id, zone='us-central1-a', instance=instance_name).execute()

# Check if MySQL is running on the instance
if 'mysql' in instance['metadata']['items'][0]['value']:
    # SSH into the instance
    ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
    ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
    ssh.connect(instance['networkInterfaces'][0]['accessConfigs'][0]['natIP'], username='your-username', key_filename='path/to/key.pem')

    # Execute the command to edit the MySQL configuration file
    command = 'sudo nano /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf\n'
    stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command(command)

    # Add the local_infile=0 line to the configuration file
    command = 'echo "local_infile=0" >> /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf\n'
    stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command(command)

    # Save and close the configuration file
    command = 'sudo service mysql restart\n'
    stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command(command)

    # Verify that the MySQL Local Infile Flag is disabled
    command = 'mysql -u <username> -p -e "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE \'local_infile\'"\n'
    stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command(command)
    output = stdout.readlines()
    if 'local_infile | OFF' in output:
        print('MySQL Local Infile Flag has been successfully disabled.')
    else:
        print('Error: Failed to disable MySQL Local Infile Flag.')
else:
    print('MySQL is not running on the instance.')

Note: Replace your-project-id, your-instance-name, path/to/key.json, your-username, and path/to/key.pem with your actual values. Also, make sure to install the paramiko and google-auth libraries.
