Amazon S3 encryption client migration

This topic shows how to migrate your applications from Version 1 (V1) of the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) encryption client to Version 2 (V2), and ensure application availability throughout the migration process.

Migration overview

This migration happens in two phases:

1. Update existing clients to read new formats. First, deploy an updated version of the Amazon SDK for PHP to your application. This allows existing V1 encryption clients to decrypt objects written by the new V2 clients. If your application uses multiple Amazon SDKs, you must upgrade each SDK separately.

2. Migrate encryption and decryption clients to V2. Once all of your V1 encryption clients can read new formats, you can migrate your existing encryption and decryption clients to their respective V2 versions.

Update existing clients to read new formats

The V2 encryption client uses encryption algorithms that older versions of the client don’t support. The first step in the migration is to update your V1 decryption clients to the latest SDK release. After completing this step, your application’s V1 clients will be able to decrypt objects encrypted by V2 encryption clients. See details below for each major version of the Amazon SDK for PHP.

Upgrading Amazon SDK for PHP Version 3

Version 3 is the latest version of the Amazon SDK for PHP. To complete this migration, you must use version 3.148.0 or later of the aws/aws-sdk-php package.

Installing from the Command Line

For projects that were installed using Composer, in the Composer file, update the SDK package to version 3.148.0 of the SDK and then run the following command.

composer update aws/aws-sdk-php

Installing Using the Phar or Zip File

Use one of the following methods. Be sure to place the updated SDK file in the location required by your code, which is determined by the require statement.

For projects that were installed using the Phar file, download the updated file: aws.phar.

<?php
  require '/path/to/aws.phar';
?>

For projects that were installed using the Zip file, download the updated file: .

<?php
  require '/path/to/aws-autoloader.php';
?>

Migrate encryption and decryption clients to V2

After updating your clients to read the new encryption formats, you can update your applications to the V2 encryption and decryption clients. The following steps show you how to successfully migrate your code from V1 to V2.

Requirements for Updating to V2 Clients

1. The Amazon KMS encryption context must be passed into the S3EncryptionClientV2::putObject and S3EncryptionClientV2::putObjectAsync methods. Amazon KMS encryption context is an associative array of key-value pairs, which you must add to the encryption context for Amazon KMS key encryption. If no additional context is required, you can pass an empty array.

2. @SecurityProfile must be passed into the getObject and getObjectAsync methods in S3EncryptionClientV2. @SecurityProfile is a new mandatory parameter of the getObject... methods. If set to ‘V2’, only objects that are encrypted in V2-compatible format can be decrypted. Setting this parameter to ‘V2_AND_LEGACY’ also allows objects encrypted in V1-compatible format to be decrypted. To support migration, set @SecurityProfile to ‘V2_AND_LEGACY’. Use ‘V2’ only for new application development.

3. (optional) Include the @KmsAllowDecryptWithAnyCmk parameter in the S3EncryptionClientV2::getObject and S3EncryptionClientV2::getObjectAsync* methods. A new parameter has been added called @KmsAllowDecryptWithAnyCmk. Setting this parameter to true enables decryption without supplying a KMS key. The default value is false.

4. For decryption with a V2 client, if the @KmsAllowDecryptWithAnyCmk parameter isn’t set to true for the “getObject...” method calls, a kms-key-id must be supplied to the KmsMaterialsProviderV2 constructor.

Migration examples

Example 1: Migrating to V2 clients

Pre-migration

use Aws\S3\Crypto\S3EncryptionClient;
use Aws\S3\S3Client;

$encryptionClient = new S3EncryptionClient(
    new S3Client([
        'profile' => 'default',
        'region' => 'us-east-1',
        'version' => 'latest',
    ])
);

Post-migration

use Aws\S3\Crypto\S3EncryptionClientV2;
use Aws\S3\S3Client;

$encryptionClient = new S3EncryptionClientV2(
    new S3Client([
        'profile' => 'default',
        'region' => 'us-east-1',
        'version' => 'latest',
    ])
);

Example 2: Using Amazon KMS with kms-key-id

Pre-migration

use Aws\Crypto\KmsMaterialsProvider;
use Aws\Kms\KmsClient;

$kmsKeyId = 'kms-key-id';
$materialsProvider = new KmsMaterialsProvider(
    new KmsClient([
        'profile' => 'default',
        'region' => 'us-east-1',
        'version' => 'latest',
    ]),
    $kmsKeyId
);

$bucket = 'the-bucket-name';
$key = 'the-file-name';
$cipherOptions = [
    'Cipher' => 'gcm',
    'KeySize' => 256,
];

$encryptionClient->putObject([
    '@MaterialsProvider' => $materialsProvider,
    '@CipherOptions' => $cipherOptions,
    'Bucket' => $bucket,
    'Key' => $key,
    'Body' => fopen('file-to-encrypt.txt', 'r'),
]);

$result = $encryptionClient->getObject([
    '@MaterialsProvider' => $materialsProvider,
    '@CipherOptions' => $cipherOptions,
    'Bucket' => $bucket,
    'Key' => $key,
]);

Post-migration

use Aws\Crypto\KmsMaterialsProviderV2;
use Aws\Kms\KmsClient;

$kmsKeyId = 'kms-key-id';
$materialsProvider = new KmsMaterialsProviderV2(
    new KmsClient([
        'profile' => 'default',
        'region' => 'us-east-1',
        'version' => 'latest',
    ]),
    $kmsKeyId
);

$bucket = 'the-bucket-name';
$key = 'the-file-name';
$cipherOptions = [
    'Cipher' => 'gcm',
    'KeySize' => 256,
];

$encryptionClient->putObject([
    '@MaterialsProvider' => $materialsProvider,
    '@CipherOptions' => $cipherOptions,
    '@KmsEncryptionContext' => ['context-key' => 'context-value'],
    'Bucket' => $bucket,
    'Key' => $key,
    'Body' => fopen('file-to-encrypt.txt', 'r'),
]);
$result = $encryptionClient->getObject([
    '@KmsAllowDecryptWithAnyCmk' => true,
    '@SecurityProfile' => 'V2_AND_LEGACY',
    '@MaterialsProvider' => $materialsProvider,
    '@CipherOptions' => $cipherOptions,
    'Bucket' => $bucket,
    'Key' => $key,
]);
