An XCCDF Rule
Description
To properly set the owner of /etc/kubernetes/static-pod-resources/kube-scheduler-pod-*/configmaps/scheduler-kubeconfig/kubeconfig, run the command:
$ sudo chown root /etc/kubernetes/static-pod-resources/kube-scheduler-pod-*/configmaps/scheduler-kubeconfig/kubeconfig
warning alert: Dependency Warning
This rule is only applicable for nodes that run the Kubernetes Scheduler service.
The aforementioned service is only running on the nodes labeled
"master" by default.
Rationale
The kubeconfig for the Scheduler contains parameters for the scheduler to access the Kube API. You should set its file ownership to maintain the integrity of the file.
