🛠 Guidelines to remediate hardcoded secrets
- Understand the implications of revoking this secret by investigating where it is used in your code.
- Replace and store your secret safely. Learn here the best practices.
- Revoke and rotate this secret.
- If possible, rewrite git history. Rewriting git history is not a trivial act. You might completely break other contributing developers' workflow and you risk accidentally deleting legitimate data.
To avoid such incidents in the future consider
- following these best practices for managing and storing secrets including API keys and other credentials
- install secret detection on pre-commit to catch secret before it leaves your machine and ease remediation.

Reason for Proposed Changes
Currently there is no query to ensure that a "google_sql_database_instance" resource with a "SQLSERVER" based "database_version" has the 'cross db ownership chaining' flag disabled.
Quoting CIS_Google_Cloud_Platform_Foundation_Benchmark_v4.0.0 page 247: "
This flag is deprecated for all SQL Server versions in CGP. Going forward, you can't set its value to on. However, if you have this flag enabled, we strongly recommend that you either remove the flag from your database or set it to off." and "Enabling cross db ownership is not recommended unless all of the databases hosted by the instance of SQL Server must participate in cross-database ownership chaining and you are aware of the security implications of this setting.Proposed Changes
