Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • SRG-APP-000033-CTR-000090

    Group
  • The Kubernetes kubelet staticPodPath must not enable static pods.

    Allowing kubelet to set a staticPodPath gives containers with root access permissions to traverse the hosting filesystem. The danger comes when the container can create a manifest file within the /...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000033-CTR-000100

    Group
  • Kubernetes DynamicAuditing must not be enabled.

    Protecting the audit data from change or deletion is important when an attack occurs. One way an attacker can cover their tracks is to change or delete audit records. This will either make the atta...

  • SRG-APP-000033-CTR-000095

    Group
  • Kubernetes DynamicKubeletConfig must not be enabled.

    Kubernetes allows a user to configure kubelets with dynamic configurations. When dynamic configuration is used, the kubelet will watch for changes to the configuration file. When changes are made, ...

  • SRG-APP-000033-CTR-000090

    Group
  • The Kubernetes API server must have Alpha APIs disabled.

    Kubernetes allows alpha API calls within the API server. The alpha features are disabled by default since they are not ready for production and likely to change without notice. These features may a...

  • SRG-APP-000092-CTR-000165

    Group
  • The Kubernetes API Server must have an audit log path set.

    When Kubernetes is started, components and user services are started for auditing startup events, and events for components and services, it is important that auditing begin on startup. Within Kube...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000026-CTR-000070

    Group
  • 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.

    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...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000133-CTR-000290

    Group
  • Kubernetes Kubelet must deny hostname override.

    Kubernetes allows for the overriding of hostnames. Allowing this feature to be implemented within the kubelets may break the TLS setup between the kubelet service and the API server. This setting a...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000133-CTR-000295

    Group
  • The Kubernetes manifests must be owned by root.

    The manifest files contain the runtime configuration of the API server, proxy, scheduler, controller, and etcd. If an attacker can gain access to these files, changes can be made to open vulnerabil...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000133-CTR-000300

    Group
  • The Kubernetes KubeletConfiguration file must be owned by root.

    The kubelet configuration file contains the runtime configuration of the kubelet service. If an attacker can gain access to this file, changes can be made to open vulnerabilities and bypass user au...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000133-CTR-000305

    Group
  • The Kubernetes KubeletConfiguration files must have file permissions set to 644 or more restrictive.

    The kubelet configuration file contains the runtime configuration of the kubelet service. If an attacker can gain access to this file, changes can be made to open vulnerabilities and bypass user au...
