Always Pull Images if Latest​

If container image uses :latest tag, ensure its imagePullPolicy is set to Always.

Parameters​

None

Compliance Packs Policy Library Rules Documentation​

Best Practices​

Parameters​

None

1.1​

Avoid using the :latest tag when deploying containers because it is difficult to determine which version of the image is running and it is difficult to roll back properly.

Policies applicable:​

  • block_latest_image_tag

1.2​

Select container capabilities to reduce root user privileges thereby decreasing risk of exploits. Linux typically allows the root user (or any process running with user ID 0) to bypass all kernel permission checks. Modern Linux kernels (starting with version 2.2) divide such privileged access into distinct units known as “capabilities” so that they can be selectively enabled and disabled.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_capabilities_in_blacklist

1.3​

Don’t allow containers to enable privileged mode. A privileged container has nearly the same access as a process running directly on a host node, which means that the container can access the host’s filesystem, manipulate its network stack, load kernel modules, and otherwise subtly control the host node.

Policies applicable:​

  • block_privileged_mode

1.4​

Require containers to specify the CPU and memory resources they need. Containers that don’t specify their resource requirements run with unbounded limits. This results in a single pod which may be scheduled on a node with insufficient resources and other pods may be throttled unexpectedly.

Policies applicable:​

  • expect_container_resource_requests

1.5​

Only allow pods to mount known directories and files from the host filesystem. Otherwise, you risk a container reading or modifying privileged files.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_host_path_not_in_whitelist

1.6​

Only allow containers to use images you trust. Because of the vast supply of publicly accessible container images, it is extremely easy to deploy all kinds of software. However, not all images are created with equal accuracy and safety. Therefore, it is important to know (a) which images satisfy your requirements (functional, security, and legal) and (b) guarantee that containers run only those images you have vetted.

Policies applicable:​

  • repository_unsafe_exact

1.7​

Control how container state is handled after your containers exit.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_unexpected_reclaim_policy

2.1​

Restrict inbound and outbound traffic to only what is necessary for your application, and specifically deny all other traffic. Communication between trusted and untrusted environments should be limited to prevent malicious or unwitting individuals from compromising sensitive applications, confidential data, or both.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_egress_ip_block_not_in_whitelist
  • deny_egress_ip_block_in_blacklist
  • deny_ingress_ip_block_not_in_whitelist
  • deny_ingress_ip_block_in_blacklist

3.1​

Don’t allow conflicting ingress routes. Conflicting routes typically arise when two or more teams who share the same Kubernetes cluster create Ingress resources that define overlapping hosts, paths, or both. Since the Kubernetes Ingress API doesn’t define how to handle conflicts, the resulting behavior is unpredictable and may result in outages or other service issues.

Policies applicable:​

  • ingress_host_conflict
  • ingress_hostpath_conflict

3.2​

Secure ingress containers. Specifying TLS parameters ensures that Ingress controllers secure communication so that it is private and protected against threats such as a man-in-the-middle attack.

Policies applicable:​

  • ingress_missing_tls

3.3​

Only allow services to use approved hostnames to define ingress routes. Domain Name system(DNS) is hard enough to configure correctly without worrying about incremental changes. Guaranteeing that ingress routes use a hostname from a verified list mitigates chances for misconfiguration.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_ingress_hostname_not_in_whitelist

CIS Benchmarks​

Parameters​

None

1.2.12 AlwaysPullImages​

Ensure that all pods have AlwaysPullImages set to true.

Policies applicable:​

  • check_image_pull_policy

1.2.16 Privileged​

Ensure that no container in any pod can enable privileged mode. By default, a container is not allowed to access any devices on the host, but a privileged container is given access to all devices on the host. This allows the container nearly all the same access as processes running on the host. This is useful for containers that want to use Linux capabilities like manipulating the network stack and accessing devices.

Policies applicable:​

  • block_privileged_mode

1.2.16 HostNetwork​

Ensure pods may not use the node network namespace. Using the node network namespace gives the pod access to the loopback device, services listening on localhost, and could be used to snoop on network activity of other pods on the same node.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_host_network

1.2.16 HostPorts​

Explicitly restrict the ranges of allowable ports in the host network namespace. Restricting access to known ports limits the containers networking capabilities outside of its known function. This rule requires the list of approved host ports that may be used. An empty list means there is no restriction on host ports used.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_pod_hostports_whitelist

1.2.16 AllowedHostPaths​

Explicitly restrict the paths on a host that may be mounted into a pod. Mounting paths on a host gives the pod access to the underlying file system and the data contained therein. Restricting which paths can be mounted protects the data and in the filesystem and therefore the other containers running on that host. This rule requires the list of approved host paths that may be mounted as volumes. An empty list means there is no restriction on host paths used.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_host_path_not_in_whitelist

1.2.16 ReadOnlyRootFilesystem​

Ensures that the containers run with a read-only root filesystem. A read-only root filesystem prevents an attacker from tampering with the local filesystem or writing malicious binaries to disk.

Policies applicable:​

  • missing_read_only_filesystem

1.2.16 AllowPrivilegeEscalation​

Prohibit a container to create a child process with more privileges than its parent. Escalated privileges would allow a container to perform more sensitive tasks than would be permitted by the configuration of the container itself, leading to a host of potential security problems.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_privilege_escalation

1.2.16 AllowedFlexVolumes​

Ensure that workloads only use an approved FlexVolume driver. This rule requires the list of approved flex volume drivers. An empty list means there is no restriction.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_pod_flex_volume_drivers_whitelist

1.2.16 Volumes​

Ensures that workloads can be created only with an approved volume type. This rule requires the list of approved volume types. An empty list means there is no restriction.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_pod_volume_type_whitelist

1.2.16 denyHostNamespaceSharing​

Ensure pods may not share the host namespace. Sharing the host namespace allows the processes running in a container to communicate with other processes running on the host. This reduces isolation and processes in container can perform tasks as if these are running natively on the host.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_host_namespace_sharing

1.2.16 AllowedProcMountTypes​

Ensures that containers can be created with approved Proc Mount types only.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_proc_mount_type_whitelist

1.2.16 RequiredDropCapabilities​

Ensure pods drop all the linux capabilities that are not required. Linux Capabilities provide a fine grained breakdown of privileges traditionally associated with root user. Some of the capabilities can be used to escalate privileges or for container breakout. All capabilities that are not required must be dropped from a pod.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_capabilities_in_blacklist

RestrictSysctls​

Ensures that no resource (pod, deployment, replicaset) can be created with forbidden and unsafe Sysctl. Sysctl is used to modify kernel parameters at runtime. Sysctl can be used to disable security mechanisms or interfere with other containers on a host. All sysctls should be disabled except for a safe subset.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_unsafe_and_forbidden_sysctls

1.2.16 MustRunAsNonRoot​

Ensures that containers can not be run as root (MustRunAsNonRoot). Running a container as root may allow a non-root user to gain elevated access to the host.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_container_mustrunasnonroot

1.2.16 SeccompProfiles​

Ensures that containers can be created with approved seccomp profiles only. Seccomp can be used to sandbox the privileges of a process, restricting the calls it is able to make from userspace into the kernel.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_seccomp_profile_whitelist

1.2.16 AppArmorProfiles​

Ensures that containers can be created with approved AppArmor profiles only. AppArmor can be configured for any application to reduce its potential attack surface and provide greater in-depth defense. It is configured through profiles tuned to allow the access needed by a specific program or container, such as Linux capabilities, network access, file permissions and so on.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_app_armor_profile_whitelist

1.2.16 RunAsUser​

Ensures that containers can be run with an approved runAsUser only. This allows the administrator to better control the privileges granted to a user in container.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_pod_runas_userid_rule_whitelist

1.2.16 RunAsGroup​

Ensures that containers can be run with an approved runAsGroup only. This allows the administrator to better control the privileges granted to a user in a container.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_pod_runas_groupid_rule_whitelist

1.2.16 FsGroupRule​

Ensures that pods can be created with an approved FSGroup only.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_pod_fsgroup_rule_whitelist

1.2.16 SeLinuxOptions​

Ensures that containers can be created with approved SeLinuxOptions. SELinux defines access controls for the applications, processes, and files on a system. It uses security policies, which are a set of rules that tell SELinux what can or can’t be accessed, to enforce the access allowed by a policy.

Policies applicable:​

  • enforce_selinux_options_whitelist

5.1.5 DenyDefaultServiceAccount​

Ensure that a container does not use a default service account.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_default_service_account

5.1.6 DenyMountServiceAccountToken​

Ensure that a container must not mount service account token. Mounting service account tokens inside pods can provide an avenue for privilege escalation attacks where an attacker is able to compromise a single pod in the cluster.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_service_account_token_mount

5.7.4 NoDefaultNamespace​

Ensure that a container cannot be started in the Kubernetes default namespace. Using a specific namespace allows for better isolation through fine tuned network policies, resource quotas and service accounts.

Policies applicable:​

  • deny_default_namespace
