Kubernetes API Server must generate audit records that identify what type of event has occurred, identify the source of the event, contain the event results, identify any users, and identify any containers associated with the event.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Within Kubernetes, audit data for all components is generated by the API server. This audit data is important when there are issues, to include security incidents that must be investigated. To make the audit data worthwhile for the investigation of events, it is necessary to have the appropriate and required data logged. To fully understand the event, it is important to identify any users associated with the event. The API server policy file allows for the following levels of auditing: None - Do not log events that match the rule. Metadata - Log request metadata (requesting user, timestamp, resource, verb, etc.) but not request or response body. Request - Log event metadata and request body but not response body. RequestResponse - Log event metadata, request, and response bodies.
