Description

When a container runs kube-apiserver, the --audit-log-maxsize flag should be set to 100 megabytes or more.
This rule inspects containers and initContainers and checks container commands for kube-apiserver; it verifies that --audit-log-maxsize is present and has a value of at least 100 megabytes.
The rule reports MissingAttribute if the flag is absent and IncorrectValue if the flag is set to less than 100 megabytes.
