Verify Permissions on The Kubelet Configuration File
An XCCDF Rule
Description
To properly set the permissions of /etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf, run the command:
$ sudo chmod 0644 /etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf
Rationale
If the kubelet configuration file is writable by a group-owner or the world the risk of its compromise is increased. The file contains the configuration of an OpenShift node that is configured on the system. Protection of this file is critical for OpenShift security.
