Control: Pod Security Policy should prohibit privilege escalation
Description
Pod Security Policy `allowPrivilegeEscalation` controls whether the Pod containers may request for privilege escalation. Containers in a Pod should not allow privilege escalation. A container running with the `allowPrivilegeEscalation` flag set to true may have processes that can gain more privileges than their parent.
Usage
Run the control in your terminal:
powerpipe control run kubernetes_compliance.control.pod_security_policy_container_privilege_escalation_disabledSnapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:
powerpipe loginpowerpipe control run kubernetes_compliance.control.pod_security_policy_container_privilege_escalation_disabled --shareSQL
This control uses a named query:
pod_security_policy_container_privilege_escalation_disabled
