Fix all of the following violations that were found against the API server:- a. Ensure that the RotateKubeletServerCertificate argument is set to true.

b. Ensure that the admission control plugin PodSecurityPolicy is set.
audit: "/bin/ps -ef | grep $apiserverbin | grep -v grep"
tests:
test_items:
- flag: "--enable-admission-plugins"
compare:
op: has
value: "PodSecurityPolicy"
set: true
remediation: |
Follow the documentation and create Pod Security Policy objects as per your environment.
Then, edit the API server pod specification file $apiserverconf
on the master node and set the --enable-admission-plugins parameter to a value that includes PodSecurityPolicy :
--enable-admission-plugins=...,PodSecurityPolicy,...
Then restart the API Server.
scored: true
c. Ensure that the --kubelet-certificate-authority argument is set as appropriate.
audit: "/bin/ps -ef | grep $apiserverbin | grep -v grep"
tests:
test_items:
- flag: "--kubelet-certificate-authority"
set: true
remediation: |
Follow the Kubernetes documentation and setup the TLS connection between the apiserver and kubelets. Then, edit the API server pod specification file
$apiserverconf on the master node and set the --kubelet-certificate-authority parameter to the path to the cert file for the certificate authority.
--kubelet-certificate-authority=<ca-string>
scored: true
Fix all of the following violations that were found against the ETCD:-
a. Ensure that the --auto-tls argument is not set to true
Edit the etcd pod specification file $etcdconf on the master node and either remove the --auto-tls parameter or set it to false. --auto-tls=false b. Ensure that the --peer-auto-tls argument is not set to true Edit the etcd pod specification file $etcdconf on the master node and either remove the --peer-auto-tls parameter or set it to false. --peer-auto-tls=false

Solution (Step by Step) :
1. Generate Key Pair: Generate a public and private key pair for signing container images.
bash
openssl genrsa -out private-key 2048
openssl rsa -pubout -in private-key -out public-key
2. Sign Container Image: use the private key to sign the container image-
bash
docker build -t my-app:latest
cosign Sign --key private.key my-app:latest
3. Push Signed Image: Push the signed image to your Docker registry.
bash
docker push my-app:latest
4. Configure Kubernetes Image Policy: Configure a Kubernetes ImagePolicyWebhook using a tool like Admission Webhook Controller to enforce image signature verification. The webhook can be configured to check for the presence of a valid signature using the public key and to reject images without a valid signature.

5. Deploy Image Policy Webhook: Deploy the ImagePolicyWebhook configuration using 'kubectl apply -f image-policy-webhook.yamr 6. Test Image Signature Verificatiom Create a new Deployment using an unsigned image. The deployment should be rejected by the webhook.

Note: This is a basic example. You can configure more advanced image signature verification policies based on your security needs and requirements. For example, you can enforce specific image signing policies, use multiple keys, and configure different failure policies.

Explanation:
1) Connect to the correct host
ssh cks000035
sudo -i
export KUBECONFIG=/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf
2) List the 3 container names + images in the Deployment
kubectl -n alpine get deploy alpine -o jsonpath='{range .spec.template.spec.containers[*]}{.name}{"\t"}{.image}{"\n"}{end}' You'll get 3 lines like:
c1 alpine:3.xx
c2 alpine:3.yy
c3 alpine:3.zz
3) Identify which alpine image has libcrypto3 at 3.1.4-r5
Fastest reliable method (since it's Alpine, just query apk inside each image):
Run these one-by-one for each image you saw in step 2:
docker run --rm <ALPINE_IMAGE_1> sh -c 'apk info -v libcrypto3 2>/dev/null | head -n1' docker run --rm <ALPINE_IMAGE_2> sh -c 'apk info -v libcrypto3 2>/dev/null | head -n1' docker run --rm <ALPINE_IMAGE_3> sh -c 'apk info -v libcrypto3 2>/dev/null | head -n1'
✅ The correct image is the one that prints exactly:
libcrypto3-3.1.4-r5
Note that full image tag, e.g.:
IMG=alpine:3.xx
4) Create SPDX document with bom for that identified image
(Use the identified image from step 3.)
bom generate --image $IMG --format spdx --output /home/candidate/alpine.spdx Verify file exists:
ls -l /home/candidate/alpine.spdx
5) Remove ONLY the container that uses that image version
The manifest to edit is:
vi /home/candidate/alpine-deployment.yaml
In the spec.template.spec.containers: list, find the container entry whose image: equals the identified $IMG, and delete that one container block only (name/image/ports/etc for that container).
Save:
:wq
6) Apply the updated Deployment (do not change other containers)
kubectl apply -f /home/candidate/alpine-deployment.yaml
Wait rollout:
kubectl -n alpine rollout status deployment/alpine
7) Verify only 2 containers remain
kubectl -n alpine get deploy alpine -o jsonpath='{range .spec.template.spec.containers[*]}{.name}{"\t"}{.image}{"\n"}{end}' You should now see 2 lines, and the $IMG line should be gone.
If bom generate ... errors (quick fix)
Check exact syntax on that system:
bom --help
bom generate --help
Then rerun with the flags it expects, keeping:
image = $IMG
output = /home/candidate/alpine.spdx
format = spdx
