Kubernetes Security Cheat Sheet — Events

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). Kubernetes events can indicate any Kubernetes resource state changes and errors, such as exceeded resource quota or pending pods, as well as any informational messages. The following command returns all events within a specific namespace Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```bash kubectl get events -n <namespace> NAMESPACE LAST SEEN TYPE REASON OBJECT MESSAGE kube-system 8m22s Normal Scheduled pod/metrics-server-66dbbb67db-lh865 Successfully assigned kube-system/metrics-server-66dbbb67db-lh865 to aks-agentpool-42213468-1 kube-system 8m14s Normal Pulling pod/metrics-server-66dbbb67db-lh865 Pulling image "aksrepos.azurecr.io/mirror/metrics-server-amd64:v0.2.1" kube-system 7m58s Normal Pulled pod/metrics-server-66dbbb67db-lh865 Successfully pulled image "aksrepos.azurecr.io/mirror/metrics-server-amd64:v0.2.1" kube-system 7m57s Normal Created pod/metrics-server-66dbbb67db-lh865 Creat ``` The following command will show the latest events for this specific Kubernetes resource Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```bash kubectl describe pod <pod-name> Events: Type Reason Age From Message ---- ------ ---- ---- ------- Normal Scheduled 14m default-scheduler Successfully assigned kube-system/coredns-7b54b5b97c-dpll7 to aks-agentpool-42213468-1 Normal Pulled 13m kubelet, aks-agentpool-42213468-1 Container image "aksrepos.azurecr.io/mirror/coredns:1.3.1" already present on machine Normal Created 13m kubelet, aks-agentpool-42213468-1 Created container coredns Normal Started 13m kubelet, aks-agentpool-42213468-1 Started container coredns ``` Attribution: Adapted from OWASP Cheat Sheet Series under CC-BY-SA-4.0.
