Provides per user/group access controls to the EC2 IMDS

imds-filterd pronounced “I M D S Filter D” is a pair of utilities which work together to intercept and filter requests to the EC2 Instance Metadata Service – or theoretically any other service at 169.254.169.25480.

It validates requests against a configured ruleset which specifies whether given users and groups should be allowed or denied access to certain prefixes in the Instance Metadata Service. For example, “root” could be granted access to everything; most unprivileged users granted access to everything except IAM role credentials; but the www user denied access to the entire Instance Metadata Service in order to guard against SSRF and similar attacks.
