Kubernetes 审计日志概述

Kubernetes 在 1.7 版本中发布了审计（Audit）日志功能，审计（Audit）提供了安全相关的时序操作记录（包括时间、来源、操作结果、发起操作的用户、操作的资源以及请求/响应的详细信息等），通过审计日志，我们能够非常清晰的知道 K8S 集群到底发生了什么事情，包括但不限于：

1. 当前/历史上集群发生了哪些变更事件。
2. 这些变更操作者是谁，是系统组件还是用户，是哪个系统组件/用户。
3. 重要变更事件的详细内容是什么，比如修改了 POD 中的哪个参数。
4. 事件的结果是什么，成功还是失败。
5. 操作用户来自哪里，集群内还是集群外。

审计日志格式

Kubernetes 审计日志是以 json 格式的方式进行输出的，如下所示：

{
        "kind": "Event",
        "apiVersion": "audit.k8s.io/v1",
        "level": "Metadata",
        "auditID": "432064d5-bda6-4957-a9e8-369f364e5748",
        "stage": "ResponseComplete",
        "requestURI": "/api/v1/namespaces/tigera-operator/configmaps/operator-lock",
        "verb": "update",
        "user": {
                "username": "system:serviceaccount:tigera-operator:tigera-operator",
                "uid": "8ab017b1-c57d-4aa4-a52f-5acec0c1e72e",
                "groups": ["system:serviceaccounts", "system:serviceaccounts:tigera-operator", "system:authenticated"],
                "extra": {
                        "authentication.kubernetes.io/pod-name": ["tigera-operator-d7957f5cc-hv5p8"],
                        "authentication.kubernetes.io/pod-uid": ["2e859424-41ca-4f64-a1c6-b0ae3395e480"]
                }
        },
        "sourceIPs": ["10.0.16.202"],
        "userAgent": "operator/v0.0.0 (linux/amd64) kubernetes/$Format/leader-election",
        "objectRef": {
                "resource": "configmaps",
                "namespace": "tigera-operator",
                "name": "operator-lock",
                "uid": "5f5b044f-9d7e-4c89-b703-f85affe91a25",
                "apiVersion": "v1",
                "resourceVersion": "13338825"
        },
        "responseStatus": {
                "metadata": {},
                "code": 200
        },
        "requestReceivedTimestamp": "2024-05-09T01:51:24.165036Z",
        "stageTimestamp": "2024-05-09T01:51:24.167660Z",
        "annotations": {
                "authorization.k8s.io/decision": "allow",
                "authorization.k8s.io/reason": "RBAC: allowed by ClusterRoleBinding \"tigera-operator\" of ClusterRole \"tigera-operator\" to ServiceAccount \"tigera-operator/tigera-operator\""
        }
}

审计日志阶段

审计日志根据日志策略可以选择在事件执行的某个阶段记录，目前支持的事件阶段有：

• RequestReceived 接收到事件且在分配给对应 handler 前记录。
• ResponseStarted 开始响应数据的 Header 但在响应数据 Body 发送前记录，这种一般应用在持续很长的操作事件，例如 watch 操作。
• ResponseComplete 事件响应完毕后记录。
• Panic 内部出现 panic 时记录。

审计日志等级

审计日志根据日志策略可以选择事件保存的等级，根据等级不同，APIServer 记录日志的详细程度也不同。目前支持的事件等级有：

• None 不记录日志。
• Metadata 只记录 Request 的一些 metadata (例如 user, timestamp, resource, verb 等)，但不记录 Request 或 Response 的 body。
• Request 记录 Request 的 metadata 和 body。
• RequestResponse 最全记录方式，会记录所有的 metadata、Request和 Response 的 Body。

审计日志策略

APIServer 支持对每类不同的资源设置不同的审计日志策略，包括日志记录阶段以及日志记录等级，目前官方以及很多云厂商都会提供日志策略，一般都遵循以下原则：

• 在收到请求后不立即记录日志，当返回体 header 发送后才开始记录。
• 对于大量冗余的 kube-proxy watch 请求，kubelet 和 system:nodes 对于 node 的 get 请求，kube 组件在 kube-system 下对于 endpoint 的操作，以及 apiserver 对于 namespaces 的 get 请求等不作审计。
• 对于 /healthz，/version，/swagger* 等只读 url 不作审计。
• 对于可能包含敏感信息或二进制文件的 secrets，configmaps，tokenreviews 接口的日志等级设为 metadata，该 level 只记录请求事件的用户、时间戳、请求资源和动作，而不包含请求体和返回体。
• 对于一些如 authenticatioin、rbac、certificates、autoscaling、storage 等敏感接口，根据读写记录相应的请求体和返回体。

开启审计日志策略

以 K8S 1.24 为例，开启审计日志策略。

1、登陆主节点服务器

cd /etc/kubernetes

2、新增 audit-policy.yml

对应的策略信息可以按照实际需求进行调整。

API Server 开启审计日志

进入目录 /etc/kubernetes/manifests，先备份 kube-apiserver.yaml 文件，并且备份的文件不能放在 /etc/kubernetes/manifests/ 下，调整文件内容：

1、在 spec.containers.command 下添加命令：

  - command:
    - kube-apiserver
    - --advertise-address=10.0.16.204
    - --allow-privileged=true
    - --audit-log-format=json
    - --audit-log-maxage=7
    - --audit-log-maxbackup=10
    - --audit-log-maxsize=100
    - --audit-log-path=/var/log/kubernetes/audit.log
    - --audit-policy-file=/etc/kubernetes/audit-policy.yml

2、在 spec.containers.volumeMounts 下添加：

    - mountPath: /etc/kubernetes
      name: audit
    - mountPath: /var/log/kubernetes
      name: audit-log

3、在 spec.volumes 下添加：

  - hostPath:
      path: /etc/kubernetes
      type: DirectoryOrCreate
    name: audit
  - hostPath:
      path: /var/log/kubernetes
      type: DirectoryOrCreate
    name: audit-log

4、生效

API Server 被改动后，会自动重启，耐心等待几分钟即可。

5、验证

执行以下命令，看看是否有 audit.log 文件产生，如果有则证明已经生效。

ls /var/log/kubernetes

观测云采集 K8S 审计日志

接入步骤：

• 部署 DataKit 采集器
• 采集 K8S 审计日志
• 查看 K8S 审计日志报表

部署 DataKit 采集器

K8s 安装 - 观测云文档

采集 K8S 审计日志

K8S 审计日志存储在对应 master 节点的 /var/log/kubernetes 目录下，这里采用 annotation 的方式进行采集。

• 创建 pod

k8s-audit-log.yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: kube-audit-log
  annotations:
        datakit/logs: |
          [
            {
              "disable": false,
              "type": "file",
              "path":"/var/log/kubernetes/audit.log",
              "source":  "k8s-audit",
              "tags" : {
                "atype": "kube-audit-log"
              }
            }
          ]

spec:
  containers:
  - name: kube-audit-log
    image: busybox
#    command: ["sleep", "1"]
    args:
    - /bin/sh
    - -c
    - >
      i=0;
      while true;
      do
        i=$((i+1));
        sleep 10;
      done
    volumeMounts:
    - mountPath: /var/log/kubernetes
      name: datakit-vol-opt
  volumes:
  - name: datakit-vol-opt
    hostPath: 
      path: /var/log/kubernetes
  nodeSelector:
     kubernetes.io/hostname: k8s-master
  tolerations:
  - key: "node-role.kubernetes.io/master"
    operator: "Exists"
    effect: "NoSchedule"
  - key: "node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane"
    operator: "Exists"
    effect: "NoSchedule"

需要注意当前 pod 只能运行在 master 节点上。

• 执行

kubectl apply -f k8s-audit-log.yaml 

• 查看

等几分钟后就可以在观测云上查看到对应的日志了。

由于是 json 格式，观测云支持通过 @+json字段名 的方式进行搜索，如 @verb:update⁠

查看 K8S 审计日志报表

审计日志采集上来后，通过观测云 pipeline 的能力，可以对审计日志关键字段进行提取，从而对审计日志进行进一步数据分析。

• 新建 pipeline

1、选择对应的日志来源 k8s-audit

2、Pipeline 名称：kubelet-audit

3、定义解析规则

abc = load_json(_)

add_key(kind, abc["kind"])
add_key(level, abc["level"])
add_key(stage, abc["stage"])
add_key(verb, abc["verb"])
add_key(auditID, abc["auditID"])
add_key(username, abc["user"]["username"])
add_key(responseCode, abc["responseStatus"]["code"])
if abc["responseStatus"]["code"]==200 {
  add_key(status, "OK")
}else{
  add_key(status, "FAIL")
}
add_key(sourceIP_0,abc["sourceIPs"][0])
  
add_key(namespace,abc["objectRef"]["namespace"])
add_key(node,abc["objectRef"]["name"])

4、点击获取脚本测试

5、保存

• 查看审计日志视图

选择仪表板模板 Kubernetes Audit 即可查看到对应的视图信息。
