Doc Text: |
Cause:
incomplete security context of a the oauth-server pods might result in the pods crashing as it picks up a custom SCC that reverts the default behavior
Consequence:
the oauth-server pods start crash-looping
Fix:
modify the security-context of the oauth-server pods to include configuration that it needs in order to run
Result:
a custom SCC does not prevent the oauth-server pods from running

DefaultSecurityContextConstraints_Mutated is going to reverted. PRs merged. Next z stream release should have it removed. The other topic must be analyzed. Have you done a comparison between the original and the installed SCC? Hard to believe that equal SCCs behave differently. It's not that 2 equal SCCs are behaving differently, it's the impact of a 3rd party SCC can have on the platform components. A default install: oc get pod authentication-operator-7fb9bc495c-5pt9p -o yaml | grep scc openshift.io/scc: anyuid oc get pod oauth-openshift-594478b797-xkgxj -o yaml | grep scc openshift.io/scc: anyuid 3rd party tool comes along and creates its own SCC, as it should, but the SCC creates a conflict with anyuid. oc apply -f securitycontextconstraints-collector.yaml securitycontextconstraints.security.openshift.io/collector created The full scc is attached above. For a while, nothing may change as all of the pods are already running. An oauth change happens and the oauth pods start rolling: oc get pods oauth-openshift-594478b797-9gc98 -o yaml | grep scc openshift.io/scc: collector The first pods goes into a crashloopbackoff because now its using the collector SCC (because it has has a higher priority and it setting readonly) instead of anyuid which leads to the pods failing. This would be a bigger issue during an upgrade event. There are 4 operators and the oauth pods that use the anyuid SCC: authentication-operator, oauth-openshift, cluster-node-tuning-operator, openshift-service-catalog-apiserver-operator and openshift-service-catalog-controller-manager-operator This is caused by the oauth-server pods not being specific enough about their security context and their service-account's privileges being too broad Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
