Jy kan hierdie laboratoriums net binne minikube uitvoer.

Pod Skepping -> Escaleer na ns SAs

Ons gaan die volgende skep:

• ’n Diensrekening “test-sa” met ’n klusterprivilege om geheime te lees
• ’n ClusterRole “test-cr” en ’n ClusterRoleBinding “test-crb” sal geskep word
• Toestemmings om pods te lys en te skep aan ’n gebruiker genaamd “Test” sal gegee word
• ’n Role “test-r” en RoleBinding “test-rb” sal geskep word
• Dan sal ons bevestig dat die SA geheime kan lys en dat die gebruiker Test pods kan lys
• Laastens sal ons die gebruiker Test naboots om ’n pod te skep wat die SA test-sa insluit en die diensrekening token te steel.
• Dit is die manier om te wys dat die gebruiker op hierdie manier privileges kan eskaleer

Note

Om die scenario te skep, word ’n admin rekening gebruik.
Boonop, om die sa token in hierdie voorbeeld te exfiltreer, word die admin rekening gebruik om binne die geskepte pod uit te voer. Maar, soos hier verduidelik, kan die verklaring van die pod die eksfiltrasie van die token bevat, so die “exec” privilege is nie nodig om die token te eksfiltreer nie, die “create” toestemming is genoeg.

Patch Daemonset

In hierdie geval gaan ons ’n daemonset patch om sy pod ons gewenste diensrekening te laai.

As jou gebruiker die werkwoord update in plaas van patch het, sal dit nie werk nie.

Skep/Patch Bindings

Werk nie:

• Skep ’n nuwe RoleBinding net met die werkwoord create
• Skep ’n nuwe RoleBinding net met die werkwoord patch (jy moet die binding toestemmings hê)
• Jy kan dit nie doen om die rol aan jouself of aan ’n ander SA toe te ken nie
• Wysig ’n nuwe RoleBinding net met die werkwoord patch (jy moet die binding toestemmings hê)
• Jy kan dit nie doen om die rol aan jouself of aan ’n ander SA toe te ken nie

Bind eksplisiet Bindings

In die “Privilege Escalation Prevention and Bootstrapping” afdeling van https://unofficial-kubernetes.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin/authorization/rbac/ word genoem dat as ’n SA ’n Binding kan skep en eksplisiet Bind toestemmings oor die Rol/Cluster rol het, kan dit bindings skep selfs met Roles/ClusterRoles met toestemmings wat dit nie het nie.
Maar dit het nie vir my gewerk nie:

Arbitrêre rolle skep

In hierdie voorbeeld probeer ons ’n rol te skep met die toestemmings om te skep en pad oor die rolle hulpbronne. egter, K8s keer ons om ’n rol te skep met meer toestemmings as wat die hoofpersoon wat dit skep het:

# Create a SA and give the permissions "create" and "patch" over "roles"
