Bug: Remove unnecessary permissions
Yseona opened this issue · comments
Hi community!
I just found that the Deployment emissary-ingress in the charts has both list
and get
verbs for the secrets
resource (rbac.yaml#L13). However, after reading the source code of emissary, I didn't find any Kubernetes API usages that require list
secrets permissions. If malicious users gain control of a Kubernetes node running a emissary-ingress
pod, they can list all the names of the secrets, and with the name, they can get the details of all the secrets objects (since this is declared in a ClusterRole).Therefore, for security reasons, I suggest checking this permission to determine if it is truly unnecessary. If it is, the issue should be fixed by removing the unnecessary permission or or other feasible methods.
To Reproduce
Use helm chart with default values.
