Policy Controller comes with a default library of constraint templates that can be used with the CIS bundle to audit the compliance of your cluster against the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark v1.7.1. This benchmark is a set of recommendations for configuring Kubernetes to support a strong security posture.

This bundle of constraints addresses and enforces policies in the following domains:

• RBAC and service accounts
• Pod Security Policies
• Network policies and CNI
• Secrets management
• Extensible Admission Control
• General policies

Note: This bundle has not been certified by CIS.

Before you begin

1. Install and initialize the Google Cloud CLI, which provides the gcloud and kubectl commands used in these instructions. If you use Cloud Shell, Google Cloud CLI comes pre-installed.
2. Install Policy Controller on your cluster with the default library of constraint templates. You must also enable support for referential constraints, as this bundle contains referential constraints.

Configure for referential constraints

Warning: You can overwrite your changes. If you already have an existing Config in the gatekeeper-system namespace, you must include all previous customization settings to preserve your changes.

1. Save the following YAML manifest to a file as policycontroller-config.yaml. The manifest configures Policy Controller to watch specific kinds of objects.

   apiVersion: config.gatekeeper.sh/v1alpha1
   kind: Config
   metadata:
     name: config
     namespace: "gatekeeper-system"
   spec:
     sync:
       syncOnly:
         - group: "admissionregistration.k8s.io"
           version: "v1"
           kind: "ValidatingWebhookConfiguration"
         - group: "networking.k8s.io"
           version: "v1"
           kind: "NetworkPolicy"
   

2. Apply the policycontroller-config.yaml manifest:

   kubectl apply -f policycontroller-config.yaml
   

Configure your cluster and workload

1. Enablement and configuration of Binary Authorization is required in cis-k8s-v1.7.1-require-binauthz.

Audit CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle

Policy Controller lets you enforce policies for your Kubernetes cluster. To help test your workloads and their compliance with regard to the CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policies outlined in the preceding table, you can deploy these constraints in "audit" mode to reveal and address violations.

You can apply these policies with spec.enforcementAction set to dryrun using kubectl, kpt, or Config Sync.

kubectl

1. (Optional) Preview the policy constraints with kubectl:

   kubectl kustomize https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gke-policy-library.git/anthos-bundles/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   

2. Apply the policy constraints with kubectl:

   kubectl apply -k https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gke-policy-library.git/anthos-bundles/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   

   The output is the following:

kpt

1. Install and setup kpt. kpt is used in these instructions to customize and deploy Kubernetes resources.

2. Download the CIS policy bundle from GitHub using kpt:

   kpt pkg get https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gke-policy-library.git/anthos-bundles/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   

3. Run the set-enforcement-action kpt function to set the policies' enforcement action to dryrun:

   kpt fn eval cis-k8s-v1.7.1 -i gcr.io/kpt-fn/set-enforcement-action:v0.1 \
     -- enforcementAction=dryrun
   

4. Initialize the working directory with kpt, which creates a resource to track changes:

   cd cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   kpt live init
   

5. Apply the policy constraints with kpt:

   kpt live apply
   

6. Verify that policy constraints have been installed and check if violations exist across the cluster:

   kpt live status --output table --poll-until current
   

   A status of CURRENT confirms successful installation of the constraints.

Config Sync

1. Install and setup kpt. kpt is used in these instructions to customize and deploy Kubernetes resources.

Operators using Config Sync to deploy policies to their clusters can use the following instructions:

1. Change into the sync directory for Config Sync:

   cd SYNC_ROOT_DIR
   

   Caution: Kpt v1.0.0-beta.17 and later automatically create a resourcegroup.yaml file during live init which shouldn't be checked into your Config Sync repository. If not already present, add resourcegroup.yaml to your repository's .gitignore file.

   To create or append .gitignore with resourcegroup.yaml:

   echo resourcegroup.yaml >> .gitignore
   

2. Create a dedicated policies directory:

   mkdir -p policies
   

3. Download the CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle from GitHub using kpt:

   kpt pkg get https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gke-policy-library.git/anthos-bundles/cis-k8s-v1.7.1 policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   

4. Run the set-enforcement-action kpt function to set the policies' enforcement action to dryrun:

   kpt fn eval policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1 -i gcr.io/kpt-fn/set-enforcement-action:v0.1 -- enforcementAction=dryrun
   

5. (Optional) Preview the policy constraints to be created:

   kpt live init policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   kpt live apply --dry-run policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   

6. If your sync directory for Config Sync uses Kustomize, add policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1 to your root kustomization.yaml. Otherwise remove the policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1/kustomization.yaml file:

   rm SYNC_ROOT_DIR/policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1/kustomization.yaml
   

7. Push changes to the Config Sync repository:

   git add SYNC_ROOT_DIR/policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   git commit -m 'Adding CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle'
   git push
   

8. Verify the status of the installation:

   watch gcloud beta container fleet config-management status --project PROJECT_ID
   

   A status of SYNCED confirms the installation of the policies.

View policy violations

Once the policy constraints are installed in audit mode, violations on the cluster can be viewed in the UI using the Policy Controller Dashboard.

You can also use kubectl to view violations on the cluster using the following command:

kubectl get constraint -l policycontroller.gke.io/bundleName=cis-k8s-v1.7.1 -o json | jq -cC '.items[]| [.metadata.name,.status.totalViolations]'

If violations are present, a listing of the violation messages per constraint can be viewed with:

kubectl get constraint -l policycontroller.gke.io/bundleName=cis-k8s-v1.7.1 -o json | jq -C '.items[]| select(.status.totalViolations>0)| [.metadata.name,.status.violations[]?]'

Change CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle enforcement action

Once you've reviewed policy violations on your cluster, you can consider changing the enforcement mode so the Admission Controller will either warn on or even deny block non-compliant resource from getting applied to the cluster.

Warning: The deny enforcement action should be used with care as it can potentially block required changes resulting in interruption to critical workloads or the cluster. It is strongly recommended that only the warn or dryrun enforcement actions are used on clusters with production workloads, when testing new constraints, or performing migrations such as upgrading platforms. For more information about enforcement actions, see Auditing using constraints.

kubectl

1. Use kubectl to set the policies' enforcement action to warn:

   kubectl get constraint -l policycontroller.gke.io/bundleName=cis-k8s-v1.7.1 -o name | xargs -I {} kubectl patch {} --type='json' -p='[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/enforcementAction","value":"warn"}]'
   

2. Verify that policy constraints enforcement action have been updated:

   kubectl get constraints -l policycontroller.gke.io/bundleName=cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   

kpt

1. Run the set-enforcement-action kpt function to set the policies' enforcement action to warn:

   kpt fn eval -i gcr.io/kpt-fn/set-enforcement-action:v0.1 -- enforcementAction=warn
   

2. Apply the policy constraints:

   kpt live apply
   

Config Sync

Operators using Config Sync to deploy policies to their clusters can use the following instructions:

1. Change into the sync directory for Config Sync:

   cd SYNC_ROOT_DIR
   

2. Run the set-enforcement-action kpt function to set the policies' enforcement action to warn:

   kpt fn eval policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1 -i gcr.io/kpt-fn/set-enforcement-action:v0.1 -- enforcementAction=warn
   

3. Push changes to the Config Sync repository:

   git add SYNC_ROOT_DIR/policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   git commit -m 'Adding CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle warn enforcement'
   git push
   

4. Verify the status of the installation:

   gcloud alpha anthos config sync repo list --project PROJECT_ID
   

   Your repository showing up in the SYNCED column confirms the installation of the policies.

Test policy enforcement

Create a non-compliant resource on the cluster using the following command:

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  namespace: default
  name: wp-non-compliant
  labels:
    app: wordpress
spec:
  containers:
    - image: wordpress
      name: wordpress
      ports:
      - containerPort: 80
        name: wordpress
EOF

The admission controller should produce a warning listing out the policy violations that this resource violates, as shown in the following example:

Warning: [cis-k8s-v1.7.1-restrict-default-namespace] <default> namespace is restricted
Warning: [cis-k8s-v1.7.1-restrict-root-containers] Container wordpress is attempting to run without a required securityContext/runAsNonRoot or securityContext/runAsUser != 0
Warning: [cis-k8s-v1.7.1-restrict-privilege-escalation] Privilege escalation container is not allowed: wordpress
Warning: [cis-k8s-v1.7.1-require-seccomp-default] Seccomp profile 'not configured' is not allowed for container 'wordpress'. Found at: no explicit profile found. Allowed profiles: {"RuntimeDefault", "docker/default", "runtime/default"}
Warning: [cis-k8s-v1.7.1-psp-capabilities] container <wordpress> is not dropping all required capabilities. Container must drop all of ["NET_RAW"] or "ALL"
Warning: [cis-k8s-v1.7.1-require-securitycontext] securityContext must be defined for all Pod containers
pod/wp-non-compliant created

Remove CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle

If needed, the CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle can be removed from the cluster.

kubectl

Use kubectl to remove the policies:

  kubectl delete constraint -l policycontroller.gke.io/bundleName=cis-k8s-v1.7.1
  

kpt

Remove the policies:

  kpt live destroy
  

Config Sync

Operators using Config Sync to deploy policies to their clusters can use the following instructions:

1. Push changes to the Config Sync repository:

   git rm -r SYNC_ROOT_DIR/policies/cis-k8s-v1.7.1
   git commit -m 'Removing CIS Kubernetes v1.7.1 policy bundle'
   git push
   

2. Verify the status:

   gcloud alpha anthos config sync repo list --project PROJECT_ID
   

   Your repository showing up in the SYNCED column confirms the removal of the policies.
