Cloud Entity: Pods
CloudGuard Rule ID: D9.K8S.NET.06
Covered by Spectral: Yes

GSL LOGIC

KubernetesPod where labels contain [value='kube-apiserver'] and namespace = 'kube-system' should have spec.containers with [parsedArgs contain-none [key like 'insecure-bind-address']]

REMEDIATION

Edit the API server pod specification file $apiserverconf
on the master node and remove the --insecure-bind-address
parameter.

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.
