Background
This PR's purpose is to improve Terraform Enterprise's overall security posture by requiring http_tokens to be required in order for us to move to IMDSv2.
The http_tokens parameter controls whether the instance metadata service requires the use of session tokens, which are a key feature of IMDSv2.
Changing this to
requiredvalue enforces the use of IMDSv2. All requests to the instance metadata service must include a session token, which enhances security by preventing unauthorized access to the instance metadata.How Has This Been Tested
Tested internally.
