Ensure that the --auto-tls argument is not set to true (etcd) (Openshift)

Risk Level: High
Cloud Entity: Pods
CloudGuard Rule ID: D9.K8S.CRY.36
Covered by Spectral: No
Category: Compute

GSL LOGIC

KubernetesPod where labels contain [value='etcd'] and namespace = 'openshift-etcd' should not have spec.containers with [parsedArgs contain [key like 'auto-tls' and value like 'true%']]

REMEDIATION

This setting is managed by the cluster etcd operator. No remediation
required.

Pods

Pods are the smallest deployable units of computing that can be created and managed in Kubernetes.A Pod is a group of one or more containers (such as Docker containers), with shared storage/network, and a specification for how to run the containers.
