IAM role conditional access of OpenID provider with roles set claim matching does not work

Question

Hello,

I have a JWT issued by an IDP with `roles=["role1"]`, I would like to match an IAM role based on that JWT role, I tried:

```
{
	"Version": "2012-10-17",
	"Statement": [
		{
			"Effect": "Allow",
			"Principal": {
				"Federated": "arn1"
			},
			"Action": "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity",
			"Condition": {
				"StringEquals": {
					"idp1/:aud": "aud1"
				},
				"ForAnyValue:StringEquals": {
					"idp1/:roles": [
					    "role1"
					]
				}
			}
		}
	]
}
```

It seems like the `roles` claim is not propogated, as it never matches with ForAnyValue and matches everything with ForAllValues. Does anyone have an experience of how to match based on on roles claim? I do not have issue with other string based claims.

Regards,
Alon

Answer

The propagation will not occur since `:roles` is not included in the list of [cross-service AWS web identity federation context keys](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/reference_policies_iam-condition-keys.html#cross-condition-keys-wif), unlike `:aud`. To achieve the desired restriction, you can utilize `sts:RoleSessionName`. This key can be incorporated into a role's trust policy, mandating users to specify a particular session name when assuming a role.

```
{
	"Version": "2012-10-17",
	"Statement": [
		{
			"Effect": "Allow",
			"Principal": {
				"Federated": "arn1"
			},
			"Action": "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity",
			"Condition": {
				"StringEquals": {
					"idp1/:aud": "aud1"
				},
				"ForAnyValue:StringEquals": {
					"sts:RoleSessionName": [
					    "role1"
					]
				}
			}
		}
	]
}

```
