GSL LOGIC

ApiGateway should have stages contain-all [ clientCertificateId ]

REMEDIATION

From Portal

Navigate to the AWS Management Console.
Open the Amazon API Gateway console.
Choose the desired API from the navigation pane.
For each stage, check if there's a client certificate associated.
If not, associate a client certificate to strengthen the API's security.

From TF

resource "aws_api_gateway_domain_name" "example" {
	certificate_name = "example"
	certificate_body = "..."
	certificate_private_key = "..."
	certificate_chain = "..."
}

From Command Line

list API stages to identify those without client certificate authentication:

aws apigateway get-stages --rest-api-id your-rest-api-id

Associate a client certificate to stages that don't have it:

aws apigateway update-stage --rest-api-id REST_API_ID --stage-name STAGE_NAME --patch-operations op='add',path='/clientCertificateId',value='CERTIFICATE_ID'

Amazon API Gateway

Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console, you can create REST and WebSocket APIs that act as a “front door” for applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from your backend services, such as workloads running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), code running on AWS Lambda, any web application, or real-time communication.
