Creazione di Pod -> Escalare ai SAs ns

Stiamo per creare:

• Un account di servizio "test-sa" con un privilegio di cluster per leggere i segreti

• Saranno creati un ClusterRole "test-cr" e un ClusterRoleBinding "test-crb"

• Permessi per elencare e creare pod a un utente chiamato "Test" saranno concessi

• Saranno creati un Role "test-r" e un RoleBinding "test-rb"

• Poi confermeremo che il SA può elencare i segreti e che l'utente Test può elencare un pod

• Infine impersoneremo l'utente Test per creare un pod che include il SA test-sa e rubare il token dell'account di servizio.

• Questo è il modo per mostrare come l'utente potrebbe escalare i privilegi in questo modo

Per creare lo scenario viene utilizzato un account admin. Inoltre, per esfiltrare il token sa in questo esempio viene utilizzato l'account admin per eseguire un exec all'interno del pod creato. Tuttavia, come spiegato qui, la dichiarazione del pod potrebbe contenere l'esfiltrazione del token, quindi il privilegio "exec" non è necessario per esfiltrare il token, il permesso "create" è sufficiente.

Patch Daemonset

In questo caso andremo a patchare un daemonset per far sì che il suo pod carichi il nostro account di servizio desiderato.

Se il tuo utente ha il verb update invece di patch, questo non funzionerà.

# Create Service Account test-sa
# Create role and rolebinding to give list & update patch permissions over daemonsets in default namespace to user Test
# Create clusterrole and clusterrolebinding to give the SA test-sa access to secrets everywhere

Non funziona

Crea/Patch Bindings

Non funziona:

• Crea un nuovo RoleBinding solo con il verbo create

• Crea un nuovo RoleBinding solo con il verbo patch (devi avere i permessi di binding)

• Non puoi farlo per assegnare il ruolo a te stesso o a un altro SA

• Modifica un nuovo RoleBinding solo con il verbo patch (devi avere i permessi di binding)

• Non puoi farlo per assegnare il ruolo a te stesso o a un altro SA

Bind esplicitamente Bindings

Nella sezione "Prevenzione dell'Escalation dei Privilegi e Bootstrapping" di https://unofficial-kubernetes.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin/authorization/rbac/ si menziona che se un SA può creare un Binding e ha esplicitamente permessi Bind sul Role/Cluster role, può creare binding anche utilizzando Roles/ClusterRoles con permessi che non possiede. Tuttavia, non ha funzionato per me:

# and bind permissions over the ClusterRole "admin"

Creazione di ruoli arbitrari

In questo esempio cerchiamo di creare un ruolo con i permessi di creare e accedere alle risorse dei ruoli. Tuttavia, K8s ci impedisce di creare un ruolo con più permessi di quelli che il principale che crea ha:
