# Background

CloudFox helps penetration testers and security professionals find exploitable attack paths in cloud infrastructure. However, what if you want to find and exploit services not yet present in your current environment? What if you lack access to an enterprise AWS environment?

Enter CloudFoxable, an intentionally vulnerable AWS environment created specifically to showcase CloudFox’s capabilities and help you find latent attack paths more effectively. Drawing inspiration from [CloudGoat](https://github.com/RhinoSecurityLabs/cloudgoat), [flaws.cloud](https://flaws.cloud/), [flaws2.cloud](https://flaws2.cloud/) and [Metasploitable 1-3](https://github.com/rapid7/metasploitable3), CloudFoxable provides a wide array of flags and attack paths in a CTF format.

Similar to [CloudGoat](https://github.com/RhinoSecurityLabs/cloudgoat) and [IAM-Vulnerable](https://github.com/BishopFox/iam-vulnerable), CloudFoxable deploys intentionally vulnerable AWS resources in a user-managed playground account, for users to learn about identifying and exploiting cloud vulnerabilities. However, more like [flaws.cloud](https://flaws.cloud/), your experience is more web based and guided.

* Total number of challenges: 18

# A Modular Approach

Similar to IAM-Vulnerable, some challenges are enabled by default (the ones that have little or no cost implications), and others are disabled by default (the ones that incur cost if deployed). This way, you can enable specific modules as needed. The mechanism for enabling/disabling challenges is a little different than IAM-Vulnerable though.

Within cloudfoxable.bishopfox.com, each challenge will tell you if you need to make any terraform changes (aka deploy something) to complete the challenge. The way you do this is to edit terraform.tfvars and update the enabled flag from false to true as needed.

Here's an example:

```
############################
# Enabled/Disabled Challenges
############################

# Always on (Low or No cost)
challenge_foo_enabled = true
challenge_bar_enabled = true
challenge_alice_enabled = true

# Enable as needed (These challenges incur cost)
challenge_bob_enabled = false
challenge_mallory_enabled = false
```

To enable the mallory challenge, you would simply update the following line:
```
challenge_mallory_enabled = true
```

After you enable a challenge, you will need to re-run terraform apply:
```
terraform apply
```

You have now deployed the mallory challenge.

**Cleanup**

Whenever you want to remove all of the CloudFoxable-created resources, you can run these commands:
1. `cd cloudfoxable/aws`
1. `terraform destroy`

If you'd like to add a new challenge, here's the steps within CloudFoxable once you fork the repo:

* `cp aws/challenges/1_challenge_template aws/challenges/challenge_name`
* Rename the challenge template folder and `challenge_name.tf` file to the name of your challenge.
* Add your terraform code
* Make a new variable in aws/variables.tf
```
variable "challenge_name_enabled" {
description = "Enable or disable challenge_name challenge (true = enabled, false = disabled)"
type = bool
default = false
}
```
* Add it to the "Enabled/Disabled Challenge section in `terraform.tfvars.example`. Specify if it should be enabled by default (low/no cost), or disabled by default (costs $$)
```
challenge_name_enabled = false
```
* Add the module to aws/main.tf
```
module "challenge_challenge_name" {
source = "./challenges/challenge-name"
count = var.challenge_name_enabled ? 1 : 0
aws_assume_role_arn = (var.aws_assume_role_arn != "" ? var.aws_assume_role_arn : data.aws_caller_identity.current.arn)
account_id = data.aws_caller_identity.current.account_id
aws_local_profile = var.aws_local_profile
user_ip = local.user_ip
}
```
* Add the challenge name to the `enabled_challenges` local variable:
```
var.challenge_name_enabled ? "name | $12/month |" : ""
```
