Description
An identity created a Kubernetes Pod with a sensitive volume, allowing the Pod to have read or write permissions on the host's filesystem
This could suggest an effort by an adversary to access sensitive files on the host and employ techniques for escalating privileges.
Attacker's Goals
- Gain access to the host's filesystem.
- Gain root access to the host.
Investigative actions
- Check the identity's role designation in the organization.
