Task
The alpine Deployment in the alpine namespace has three containers that run different versions of the alpine image.
First, find out which version of the alpine image contains the libcrypto3 package at version 3.1.4-r5.
Next, use the pre-installed bom tool to create an SPDX document for the identified image version at /home/candidate/alpine.spdx.
You can find the bom tool documentation at bom.
Finally, update the alpine Deployment and remove the container that uses the idenfied image version.
The Deployment's manifest file can be found at /home/candidate/alpine-deployment.yaml.
Do not modify any other containers of the Deployment.
You can switch the cluster/configuration context using the following command:
[desk@cli] $ kubectl config use-context test-account
Task: Enable audit logs in the cluster.
To do so, enable the log backend, and ensure that:
1. logs are stored at /var/log/Kubernetes/logs.txt
2. log files are retained for 5 days
3. at maximum, a number of 10 old audit log files are retained
A basic policy is provided at /etc/Kubernetes/logpolicy/audit-policy.yaml. It only specifies what not to log.
Note: The base policy is located on the cluster's master node.
Edit and extend the basic policy to log:
1. Nodes changes at RequestResponse level
2. The request body of persistentvolumes changes in the namespace frontend
3. ConfigMap and Secret changes in all namespaces at the Metadata level
Also, add a catch-all rule to log all other requests at the Metadata level
Note: Don't forget to apply the modified policy.
