Severity: Medium

Learn More Description Minimize the admission of containers that request sharing the host process ID namespace. Containers with host_pid enabled can access host processes, increasing the risk of privilege escalation and lateral movement. This rule flags resources where spec.host_pid is set to true. The expected value is false or undefined.
