NEW QUESTION # 63
You need to configure a Kubernetes cluster to use a pod security policy (PSP) that restricts the use of privileged containers and specific capabilities. You want to only allow specific pods in the 'production' namespace to run With the 'NET_ADMIN' capability.
Answer:
Explanation:
Solution (Step by Step) :
1. create a PSPI
- Define a PSP that restricts the use of privileged containers and capabilities, except for the capability for pods in the 'production' namespace.
2. Create a PSP Binding: - Bind the PSP to the 'production' namespace-
3. Create a Pod: - Create a Pod in the 'production' namespace and specify the 'securitycontext' with the 'NET_ADMIN' capability.
4. Apply the YAML files: - Apply the created YAML files using 'kubectl apply -f 5. Verify the permissions: - Try to create a Pod in other namespaces with the 'NET_ADMIN' capability. It should be rejected.

Explanation:
API server:
Ensure the --authorization-mode argument includes RBAC
Turn on Role Based Access Control.
Role Based Access Control (RBAC) allows fine-grained control over the operations that different entities can perform on different objects in the cluster. It is recommended to use the RBAC authorization mode.

Fix all of the following violations that were found against the Kubelet:- Ensure the --anonymous-auth argument is set to false.
Remediation: If using a Kubelet config file, edit the file to set authentication: anonymous: enabled to false.

--anonymous-auth=false
Based on your system, restart the kubelet service. For example:
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart kubelet.service
Audit:
/bin/ps -fC kubelet
Audit Config:
/bin/cat /var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml
Expected result:
'false' is equal to 'false'

Ensure that the --auto-tls argument is not set to true Do not use self-signed certificates for TLS. etcd is a highly-available key value store used by Kubernetes deployments for persistent storage of all of its REST API objects. These objects are sensitive in nature and should not be available to unauthenticated clients. You should enable the client authentication via valid certificates to secure the access to the etcd service.
