Vulnerability Discussion

The secure configuration of the container platform must be protected by disallowing changes to be implemented by non-privileged users. Changes to the container platform can introduce security risks or stability issues and undermine change management procedures. Securing configuration files from non-privileged user modification can be enforced using file ownership and permissions.

Check

Review the container platform to verify that configuration files cannot be modified by non-privileged users.

If non-privileged users can modify configuration files, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure the container platform to only allow configuration modifications by privileged users.
