Ensure authorization-mode Node is configured
An XCCDF Rule
Description
Restrict kubelet nodes to reading only objects associated with them.
warning alert: Warning
This rule's check operates on the cluster configuration dump.
Therefore, you need to use a tool that can query the OCP API, retrieve the following:
-
{{if ne .hypershift_cluster "None"}}/api/v1/namespaces/{{.hypershift_namespace_prefix}}-{{.hypershift_cluster}}/configmaps/kas-config{{else}}/api/v1/namespaces/openshift-kube-apiserver/configmaps/config{{end}}API endpoint, filter with with thejqutility using the following filter{{if ne .hypershift_cluster "None"}}.data."config.json" | fromjson{{else}}.data."config.yaml" | fromjson{{end}}and persist it to the local
Rationale
The Node authorization mode only allows kubelets to read Secret, ConfigMap, PersistentVolume, and PersistentVolumeClaim objects associated with their nodes.
