# kubernetes-bench-security
|
|
|
|
The Kubernetes Bench for Security is a Go application that checks whether Kubernetes is deployed securely by running the checks documented in the CIS Kubernetes 1.6 Benchmark v1.0.0.
|
|
|
|
Tests are configured with YAML files, making this tool easy to update as test specifications evolve.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
You will need to run this application on the target machines that you want to test.
|
|
|
|
If Go is installed on the target machines, you can simply clone this repository, build and install as follows:
|
|
|
|
```go build -o cis_kubernetes .```
|
|
```./install.sh```
|
|
|
|
The installation script creates a directory ~/.cis_kubernetes and copies the test config files there.
|
|
|
|
## Test config YAML representation
|
|
The tests are represented as YAML documents (installed by default into ~/.cis_kubernetes).
|
|
|
|
An example is as listed below:
|
|
```
|
|
---
|
|
controls:
|
|
id: 1
|
|
text: "Master Checks"
|
|
type: "master"
|
|
groups:
|
|
- id: 1.1
|
|
text: "Kube-apiserver"
|
|
checks:
|
|
- id: 1.1.1
|
|
text: "Ensure that the --allow-privileged argument is set (Scored)"
|
|
audit: "ps -ef | grep kube-apiserver | grep -v grep"
|
|
tests:
|
|
- flag: "--allow-privileged"
|
|
set: true
|
|
remediation: "Edit the /etc/kubernetes/config file on the master node and set the KUBE_ALLOW_PRIV parameter to '--allow-privileged=false'"
|
|
scored: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Recommendations (called `checks` in this document) can run on Kubernetes Master, Node or Federated API Servers.
|
|
Checks are organized into `groups` which share similar controls (things to check for) and are grouped together in the section of the CIS Kubernetes document.
|
|
These groups are further organized under `controls` which can be of the type `master`, `node` or `federated apiserver` to reflect the various Kubernetes node types.
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
Tests are the items we actually look for to determine if a check is successful or not. Checks can have multiple tests, which must all be successful for the check to pass.
|
|
|
|
The syntax for tests:
|
|
```
|
|
tests:
|
|
- flag:
|
|
set:
|
|
compare:
|
|
op:
|
|
value:
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
Tests have various `operations` which are used to compare the output of audit commands for success.
|
|
These operations are:
|
|
|
|
- `eq`: tests if the flag value is equal to the compared value.
|
|
- `noteq`: tests if the flag value is unequal to the compared value.
|
|
- `gt`: tests if the flag value is greater than the compared value.
|
|
- `gte`: tests if the flag value is greater than or equal to the compared value.
|
|
- `lt`: tests if the flag value is less than the compared value.
|
|
- `lte`: tests if the flag value is less than or equal to the compared value.
|
|
- `has`: tests if the flag value contains the compared value.
|
|
- `nothave`: tests if the flag value does not contain the compared value.
