Installation
Homebrew
brew install FairwindsOps/tap/rbac-lookup
Krew
kubectl krew install rbac-lookup
Usage
In the simplest use case, rbac-lookup will return any matching user, service account, or group along with the roles it has been given.
rbac-lookup rob
SUBJECT SCOPE ROLE
[email protected] cluster-wide ClusterRole/view
[email protected] nginx-ingress ClusterRole/edit
The wide output option includes the kind of subject along with the source role binding.
rbac-lookup rob --output wide
SUBJECT SCOPE ROLE SOURCE
User/[email protected] cluster-wide ClusterRole/view ClusterRoleBinding/rob-cluster-view
User/[email protected] nginx-ingress ClusterRole/edit RoleBinding/rob-edit
User/[email protected] web ClusterRole/edit RoleBinding/ron-edit
ServiceAccount/rops infra ClusterRole/admin RoleBinding/rops-admin
It's also possible to filter output by the kind of RBAC Subject. The --kind or -k parameter accepts user, group, and serviceaccount as values.
rbac-lookup ro --output wide --kind user
SUBJECT SCOPE ROLE SOURCE
User/[email protected] cluster-wide ClusterRole/view ClusterRoleBinding/rob-cluster-view
User/[email protected] nginx-ingress ClusterRole/edit RoleBinding/rob-edit
User/[email protected] web ClusterRole/edit RoleBinding/ron-edit
GKE IAM Integration
If you're connected to a GKE cluster, RBAC is only half the story here. Google Cloud IAM roles can grant cluster access. Cluster access is effectively determined by a union of IAM and RBAC roles. To see the relevant IAM roles along with RBAC roles, use the --gke flag.
rbac-lookup rob --gke
SUBJECT SCOPE ROLE
[email protected] cluster-wide ClusterRole/view
[email protected] nginx-ingress ClusterRole/edit
[email protected] project-wide IAM/gke-developer
[email protected] project-wide IAM/viewer
Of course this GKE integration also supports wide output, in this case referencing the specific IAM roles that are assigned to a user.
rbac-lookup rob --gke --output wide
SUBJECT SCOPE ROLE SOURCE
User/[email protected] cluster-wide ClusterRole/view ClusterRoleBinding/rob-cluster-view
User/[email protected] nginx-ingress ClusterRole/edit RoleBinding/rob-edit
User/[email protected] project-wide IAM/gke-developer IAMRole/container.developer
User/[email protected] project-wide IAM/gcp-viewer IAMRole/viewer
At this point this integration only supports standard IAM roles, and is not advanced enough to include any custom roles. For a full list of supported roles and how they are mapped, view lookup/gke_roles.go.
Flags Supported
--context string context to use for Kubernetes config
--gke enable GKE integration
-h, --help help for rbac-lookup
-k, --kind string filter by this RBAC subject kind (user, group, serviceaccount)
--kubeconfig string config file location
-o, --output string output format (normal, wide)
RBAC Manager
While RBAC Lookup helps provide visibility into Kubernetes auth, RBAC Manager helps make auth simpler to manage. This is a Kubernetes operator that enables more concise RBAC configuration that is easier to scale and automate. For more information, see RBAC Manager on GitHub.
