概述

本文档是对 Rancher v2.3 安全加固指南的补充。加固指南提供了用于加固 Rancher 的生产环境集群的指南，该基准自测指南旨在帮助您针对安全基准中的每个控制，来评估加固集群的安全级别。本指南将逐步介绍各种控制，并提供更新的示例命令以审核 Rancher 创建的集群中的合规性。此文档的适用人群是：Rancher 运维人员、安全团队、审核员和决策者。

加固指南旨在与特定版本的安全加固指南，CIS Kubernetes Benchmark，Kubernetes 和 Rancher 一起使用：

由于 Rancher 和 RKE 以容器的方式安装 Kubernetes，因此 CIS Kubernetes Benchmark 中的许多控制验证检查均不适用，完成 CIS 扫描后，这些检测对应的结论是Not Applicable（不适用）。

有关每个审核的更多详细信息，包括测试失败的原因和补救措施，您可以参考 CIS Kubernetes Benchmark v1.4.1 的相应部分。登录CISecurity.org后，可以下载基准测试。

测试控制方法

Rancher 和 RKE 通过 Docker 容器安装 Kubernetes 服务。配置在初始化时通过给容器传递参数的方式设置，而不是通过配置文件定义。

如果控制审核与原始 CIS 基准不同，则会使用 Rancher Labs 特定的审核命令进行测试。执行测试时，您将需要访问所有三个 RKE 角色的主机上的 Docker 命令行。这些命令还利用了jq和kubectl（使用有效的 kubeconfig 文件）来测试和评估测试结果。

Returned Value: null

Result: Pass

1.1.5 - Ensure that the --insecure-bind-address argument is not set (Scored)

Notes

Flag not set or --insecure-bind-address=127.0.0.1. RKE sets this flag to --insecure-bind-address=127.0.0.1

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--insecure-bind-address=(?:(?!127\\.0\\.0\\.1).)+")'

Returned Value: --secure-port=6443

Result: Pass

1.1.8 - Ensure that the --profiling argument is set to false (Scored)

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--profiling=false").string'

Returned Value: --profiling=false

Result: Pass

1.1.9 - Ensure that the --repair-malformed-updates argument is set to false (Scored)

Note: This deprecated flag was removed in 1.14, so it cannot be set.

Returned Value: DenyEscalatingExec

Result: Pass

1.1.13 - Ensure that the admission control plugin SecurityContextDeny is set (Not Scored)

Notes

This SHOULD NOT be set if you are using a PodSecurityPolicy (PSP). From the CIS Benchmark document:

This admission controller should only be used where Pod Security Policies cannot be used on the cluster, as it can interact poorly with certain Pod Security Policies

Several system services (such as nginx-ingress) utilize SecurityContext to switch users and assign capabilities. These exceptions to the general principle of not allowing privilege or capabilities can be managed with PSP.

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--enable-admission-plugins=.*(SecurityContextDeny).*").captures[].string'

Returned Value: null

Result: Document

1.1.14 - Ensure that the admission control plugin NamespaceLifecycle is set (Scored)

Returned Value: NamespaceLifecycle

Result: Pass

1.1.15 - Ensure that the --audit-log-path argument is set as appropriate (Scored)

Notes

This path is the path inside of the container. It’s combined with the RKE cluster.yml extra-binds: option to map the audit log to the host filesystem.

Audit logs should be collected and shipped off-system to guarantee their integrity.

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--audit-log-path=/var/log/kube-audit/audit-log.json").string'

Returned Value: --audit-log-log=/var/log/kube-audit/audit-log.json

Result: Pass

1.1.16 - Ensure that the --audit-log-maxage argument is set to 30 or as appropriate (Scored)

Notes

Audit logs should be collected and shipped off-system to guarantee their integrity. Rancher Labs recommends setting this argument to a low value to prevent audit logs from filling the local disk.

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--audit-log-maxage=\\d+").string'

Returned Value: --audit-log-maxage=5

Result: Pass

1.1.17 - Ensure that the --audit-log-maxbackup argument is set to 10 or as appropriate (Scored)

Notes

Audit logs should be collected and shipped off-system to guarantee their integrity. Rancher Labs recommends setting this argument to a low value to prevent audit logs from filling the local disk.

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--audit-log-maxbackup=\\d+").string'

Returned Value: --audit-log-maxbackup=5

Result: Pass

1.1.18 - Ensure that the --audit-log-maxsize argument is set to 100 or as appropriate (Scored)

Notes

Audit logs should be collected and shipped off-system to guarantee their integrity.

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--audit-log-maxsize=\\d+").string'

Returned Value: --audit-log-maxsize=100

Result: Pass

1.1.19 - Ensure that the --authorization-mode argument is not set to AlwaysAllow (Scored)

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--authorization-mode=(Node|RBAC|,)+").string'

Returned Value: --authorization-mode=Node,RBAC

Result: Pass

1.1.20 - Ensure that the --token-auth-file parameter is not set (Scored)

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--token-auth-file=.*").string'

Returned Value: null

Result: Pass

1.1.21 - Ensure that the --kubelet-certificate-authority argument is set as appropriate (Scored)

Notes

RKE is using the kubelet’s ability to automatically create self-signed certs. No CA cert is saved to verify the communication between kube-apiserver and kubelet.

Mitigation

Make sure nodes with role:controlplane are on the same local network as your nodes with role:worker. Use network ACLs to restrict connections to the kubelet port (10250/tcp) on worker nodes, only permitting it from controlplane nodes.

Audit

  1. docker inspect kube-apiserver | jq -e '.[0].Args[] | match("--kubelet-certificate-authority=.*").string'

Result: Pass

1.4.13 - Ensure that the file permissions for admin.conf are set to 644 or more restrictive (Scored)

Notes

RKE does not store the kubernetes default kubeconfig credentials file on the nodes. It’s presented to user where RKE is run. We recommend that this kube_config_cluster.yml file be kept in secure store.

1.6 - General Security Primitives

These “Not Scored” controls are implementation best practices. To ease the administrative burden, we recommend that you implement these best practices on your workload clusters by creating clusters with Rancher rather than using RKE alone.

1.6.1 - Ensure that the cluster-admin role is only used where required (Not Scored)

Rancher has built in support for maintaining and enforcing Kubernetes RBAC on your workload clusters.

Rancher has the ability integrate with external authentication sources (LDAP, SAML, AD…) allows easy access with unique credentials to your existing users or groups.

1.6.2 - Create administrative boundaries between resources using namespaces (Not Scored)

With Rancher, users or groups can be assigned access to all clusters, a single cluster or a “Project” (a group of one or more namespaces in a cluster). This allows granular access control to cluster resources.

1.6.3 - Create network segmentation using Network Policies (Not Scored)

Rancher can (optionally) automatically create Network Policies to isolate “Projects” (a group of one or more namespaces) in a cluster.

See “Cluster Options” when creating a cluster with Rancher to turn on Network Isolation.

1.6.4 - Ensure that the seccomp profile is set to docker/default in your pod definitions (Not Scored)

Since this requires the enabling of AllAlpha feature gates we would not recommend enabling this feature at the moment.

1.6.5 - Apply security context to your pods and containers (Not Scored)

This practice does go against control 1.1.13, but we prefer using a PodSecurityPolicy and allowing security context to be set over a blanket deny.

Rancher allows users to set various Security Context options when launching pods via the GUI interface.

1.6.6 - Configure image provenance using the ImagePolicyWebhook admission controller (Not Scored)

Image Policy Webhook requires a 3rd party service to enforce policy. This can be configured in the --admission-control-config-file. See the Host configuration section for the admission.yaml file.

1.6.7 - Configure network policies as appropriate (Not Scored)

Rancher can (optionally) automatically create Network Policies to isolate projects (a group of one or more namespaces) within a cluster.

See the Cluster Options section when creating a cluster with Rancher to turn on network isolation.

1.6.8 - Place compensating controls in the form of PodSecurityPolicy (PSP) and RBAC for privileged container usage (Not Scored)

Section 1.7 of this guide shows how to add and configure a default “restricted” PSP based on controls.

With Rancher you can create a centrally maintained “restricted” PSP and deploy it to all of the clusters that Rancher manages.

1.7 - Pod Security Policies (PSP)

This RKE configuration has two Pod Security Policies.

  • default-psp: assigned to namespaces that require additional privileged access: kube-system, ingress-nginx and cattle-system.
  • restricted: This is the cluster default PSP and follows the best practices defined by controls in this section.
