Ensure that the --audit-log-path argument is set as appropriate (API Server)
Enable auditing on the Kubernetes API Server and set the desired audit log path as appropriate.
Risk Level: Low
Cloud Entity: Pods
CloudGuard Rule ID: D9.K8S.LOG.01
Covered by Spectral: Yes
Category: Compute
GSL LOGIC
KubernetesPod where labels contain [value='kube-apiserver'] and namespace = 'kube-system' should have spec.containers with [parsedArgs contain [key like 'audit-log-path' ]]
REMEDIATION
Edit the API server pod specification file $apiserverconf
on the master node and set the --audit-log-path parameter to a suitable
path and file where you would like audit logs to be written, for example:
--audit-log-path=/var/log/apiserver/audit.log
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.
