Description

Ensure that user-managed service account key upload is disabled within your Google Cloud project, folder, or the entire organization, through the “Disable Service Account Key Upload” organization policy. This allows you to control the upload process of unmanaged long-term credentials for your Cloud IAM service accounts. By default, users can upload keys to service accounts based on their Cloud IAM roles and permissions.

  impact: |
    User-managed keys are extremely powerful credentials and they can pose a security risk if not managed correctly. If compromised, anyone with these credentials can access GCP resources through the associated service account.
  remediation: |
    Enable the "Disable Service Account Key Upload" policy at the organization level using the 'gcloud alpha resource-manager org-policies enable-enforce' command with the iam.disableServiceAccountKeyUpload constraint.
