Description OpenShift BugZilla Robot 2021-09-09 18:49:49 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2002808 +++

Description of problem:
See https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104314#issue-709659173

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
role_arn and web_identity_token_file are not used by the custom AWS credential chain defined by the in-tree cloud provider.

Expected results:
Default credential chain is used and web identity credentials work.

Additional info:
A number of customers are wanting OCP run with only STS credentials (no user access ids/keys).  This is recommend by AWS.  Hypershift is doing this.  OCP can't run in STS-only mode until this is fixed.
