Rejects unless

!has(object.rules) || object.rules.all(r,
  !(has(r.apiGroups) && has(r.resources) && has(r.verbs) &&
    r.apiGroups.exists(ag, ag == "") &&
    r.resources.exists(res, res == "nodes/proxy") &&
    r.verbs.exists(v, v == "get")
  )
)

ClusterRoles must not grant get access to nodes/proxy.

Remediation

Remove the get verb for nodes/proxy in the core API group and read workload data through the pods and pods/log APIs instead. Fields: rules[*].apiGroups, rules[*].resources, rules[*].verbs.

clusterroles · rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1 · CREATE, UPDATE

Save it as clusterrole-nodes-proxy-get.yaml — the commands below assume that name.

Validate with kubeapt

Check a workload against this one policy, before anything is installed on a cluster.

$ kubeapt validate -p ./clusterrole-nodes-proxy-get.yaml -r ./workload.yaml

Or without the file, from the published policy set — -r takes a directory too:

$ kubeapt policies download && kubeapt validate --policy-name clusterrole-nodes-proxy-get -r ./manifests

Or against every namespace in the cluster your kubeconfig points at:

$ kubeapt validate --policy-name clusterrole-nodes-proxy-get -A
