etcd should be configured to make use of TLS encryption for client connections.
Rationale
etcd is a highly-available key value store used by Kubernetes deployments for persistent storage of all of its REST API objects. These objects are sensitive in nature and should be protected by client authentication. This requires the API server to identify itself to the etcd server using a SSL Certificate Authority file.
Audit
Run the following command on the master node:
ps -ef | grep kube-apiserver
Verify that the --etcd-cafile
argument exists and it is set as appropriate.
Follow the Kubernetes documentation and set up the TLS connection between the apiserver and etcd. Then, edit the API server pod specification file /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-apiserver.yaml
on the master node and set the etcd certificate authority file parameter: --etcd-cafile=<path/to/ca-file>
Impact
TLS and client certificate authentication must be configured for etcd.
Default value
By default, --etcd-cafile
is not set.
