title: "Updating passwords with Ansible"
date: 2019-01-19T00:00:00+01:00
draft: false
share: false
---
I've recently migrated from [KeePassXC](https://keepassxc.org/) to [Bitwarden_RS](https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs) (which I highly recommend, by the way) to manage my passwords.
I figured it was an opportunity to update passwords I hadn't changed in... *years*. My Linux users' passwords were among those.
Instead of updating them manually on each machine, I thought there might be a way to do so with Ansible, and since it turns out there is, I thought I might as well share it here!
**Please be careful when it comes to password modification automation. You might end up locking yourself out of your servers.**
## Generating password hashes
First thing first, we'll need to generate `passwd` compatible password hashes for our users.
In this example, I'll generate a hash for the *P@ssw0rd* password :
```
mkpasswd -m sha-512
Password:
$6$wAVPV.Coc$o3FNxs9EPgXF54hv1BeKtfoMnLwE5VATL71jlHQHeVyCaevnnxfSp/x1UbJ00F3qlyyfUAmscuGXImoHmXBFa.
```
You might notice you'll get a different result if you run the same command again :
```
mkpasswd -m sha-512
Password:
$6$iFBWJD3300m$CYZJRSfZ4scHYNI9ggqe8WYef7Qym2Oi5ycgb64VsbU3.WM1GoJYlh1sawENTD7nrXVCthvs8LRPw1CVjzkP71
```
That's because, unless you specify it, the salt used by `mkpasswd` to encrypt the password is random.
You can choose a salt with the `-S` parameter if you want :
```
mkpasswd -m sha-512 -S hmmmsalt
Password:
$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/
mkpasswd -m sha-512 -S hmmmsalt
Password:
$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/

## Ansible vault
Passwords are *secrets*. Even if there are hashed, you don't want them to be publicly accessible.
If, like me, your Ansible configuration is in a git repository, you should not commit them in an unencrypted file.
Ansible offers a way to encrypt a file containing variables with the `ansible-vault` command.
We first have to create a vault :
```
cd /your/ansible/project
mkdir -p group_vars/all/
ansible-vault create group_vars/all/vault.yml
New Vault password:
Confirm New Vault password:
```
As you can see, the command will ask you to provide a password for the vault. It will then open the file in your `$EDITOR` (that'll be `vim` if you're a cool kid).
The file is like any Ansible vault file. I'll create a variable for the `root` and `captainark` users in my case :
```yaml
vault_captainarkpwd: "$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/"
vault_rootpwd: "$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/"
```
An [Ansible best practice](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_best_practices.html#variables-and-vaults) is to prepend all variables that are stored in a vault with the `vault_` prefix. It makes where they are stored clear when reading through a playbook.
Once saved, if you try to `cat` the file, you won't be able to see its actual content :
```
cat group_vars/all/vault.yml

```
To view the variables in the file, you can use the `ansible-vault view` command :
```yaml
ansible-vault view group_vars/all/vault.yml
Vault password:
vault_captainarkpwd: "$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/"
vault_rootpwd: "$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/"
```
To edit the vault's content, you can use the `ansible-vault edit group_vars/all/vault.yml` command.
## The playbook
Now that our vault is ready, all that's left is to run the following playbook :
```yaml
---
- hosts: all
become: yes
become_method: sudo
tasks:
- name: PASSWORDS | Check if the captainark user exists
shell: id -u captainark
register: captainark_exists
ignore_errors: true
- name: PASSWORDS | Update captainark password
user:
name: captainark
password: "{{ vault_captainarkpwd }}"
update_password: always
when: captainark_exists.rc == 0
- name: PASSWORDS | Create captainark user
user:
name: captainark
password: "{{ vault_captainarkpwd }}"
shell: /usr/bin/zsh
uid: 1000
groups: adm,sudo,apps
when: captainark_exists.rc != 0
- name: PASSWORDS | Update root password
user:
name: root
password: "{{ vault_rootpwd }}"
update_password: always
```
I've called this playbook `passwords.yml`. To run it, I simply execute the following command :
```
ansible-playbook passwords.yml --ask-vault-pass
```
The command asks for the vault password to decrypt its contents.
The playbook will first check if the `captainark` user exists, and it will update its password if it does. If it doesn't, the user will be created with the defined options.
Since the `root` user should always exist, the playbook changes its password without checking.
**N.B. :** If you've decided to store your vault somewhere else, you might need to add a task at the beginning of the playbook to load it, like so :
```yaml
- name: PASSWORDS | Load the vault
include_vars: /path/to/your/vault.yml
```

</code></pre>
<p>To view the variables in the file, you can use the <code>ansible-vault view</code> command :</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml">ansible-vault view group_vars/all/vault.yml
Vault password:
vault_captainarkpwd: &quot;$6$hmmmsalt$RwZR2r9W5cSv5bVgeSFPX0rJiovWOD5kMDFey1xPR6JtasqQZqHTiuW5JoQ.0VCW6oNHJlgOYJ.auhl82gfX8/&quot;

</code></pre>
<p>To edit the vault&rsquo;s content, you can use the <code>ansible-vault edit group_vars/all/vault.yml</code> command.</p>
<h2 id="the-playbook">The playbook</h2>
<p>Now that our vault is ready, all that&rsquo;s left is to run the following playbook :</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml">---
- hosts: all
become: yes
become_method: sudo
tasks:
- name: PASSWORDS | Check if the captainark user exists
shell: id -u captainark
register: captainark_exists
ignore_errors: true
- name: PASSWORDS | Update captainark password
user:
name: captainark
password: &quot;{{ vault_captainarkpwd }}&quot;
update_password: always
when: captainark_exists.rc == 0
- name: PASSWORDS | Create captainark user
user:
name: captainark
password: &quot;{{ vault_captainarkpwd }}&quot;
shell: /usr/bin/zsh
uid: 1000
groups: adm,sudo,apps
when: captainark_exists.rc != 0
- name: PASSWORDS | Update root password
user:
name: root
password: &quot;{{ vault_rootpwd }}&quot;
update_password: always
</code></pre>
<p>I&rsquo;ve called this playbook <code>passwords.yml</code>. To run it, I simply execute the following command :</p>
<pre><code>ansible-playbook passwords.yml --ask-vault-pass
</code></pre>
<p>The command asks for the vault password to decrypt its contents.</p>
<p>The playbook will first check if the <code>captainark</code> user exists, and it will update its password if it does. If it doesn&rsquo;t, the user will be created with the defined options.</p>
<p>Since the <code>root</code> user should always exist, the playbook changes its password without checking.</p>
<p><strong>N.B. :</strong> If you&rsquo;ve decided to store your vault somewhere else, you might need to add a task at the beginning of the playbook to load it, like so :</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml"> - name: PASSWORDS | Load the vault
include_vars: /path/to/your/vault.yml
</code></pre>
<h2 id="conclusion">Conclusion</h2>
