⚡ Types of Scans

Authenticated scans

Authenticated scan expects the user to have atleast read-only priviliges and provide a token during the scan. please use the below provided links to create read-only users

Create read-only user for Amazon eks     Create read-only user for Azure aks     Create read-only user for Google gke     Role based access control

# To grab a token from eks cluster
$ aws eks get-token --cluster-name cluster-name --region ap-southeast-2

# To grab a token from aks cluster
$ az aks get-credentials --resource-group myResourceGroup --name myAKSCluster

# To grab a token from gke cluster
$ gcloud container clusters get-credentials CLUSTER_NAME --zone=COMPUTE_ZONE

# To grab a token from service account
$ kubectl -n namespace get secret serviceaccount-token -o jsonpath='{.data.token}'

# To grab a token from a pod directly or via command execution bug
$ cat /run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token

Unauthenticated scans

Unauthenticated scan will be successful incase of anonymous access is permitted on the target cluster

Identifying an open Insecure port on kuberentes master node

Identifying a worker Node with kubelet readwrite and readonly ports open
