Rancher MCM must use a centralized user management solution to support account management functions. For accounts using password authentication, the container platform must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or later protocol to protect the integrity of the password authentication process.
High Severity
RBAC Integration and Authn/Authz Centralized authentication services provide additional functionality fulfilling security requirements: - Multi-factor authentication, which is compatible with Rancher MCM. - Disabling users after a period of time. - Storage and transmission of secure information is encrypted. - Secure authentication protocols such as LDAP over TLS, or LDAPS using FIPS 140-2 approved encryption modules. - PKI based authentication. Rancher MCM can integrate with external centralized authentication but does not offer a native solution. The authentication mechanism needs to be initially enabled and configured. The proxy authenticates users and forwards their requests to Kubernetes clusters using a service account.
