Verify Permissions on the Worker Kubeconfig File
An XCCDF Rule
Description
To properly set the permissions of /var/lib/kubelet/kubeconfig, run the command:
$ sudo chmod 0600 /var/lib/kubelet/kubeconfig
Rationale
If the worker kubeconfig file is writable by a group-owner or the world the risk of its compromise is increased. The file contains the administration configuration of the OpenShift cluster that is configured on the system. Protection of this file is critical for OpenShift security.
