fix(security): isolate native API credentials and enforce game admission - #886
The native API could create and read Secrets in the release namespace alongside the operator ServiceAccount and the agent CA private key. Kubernetes can populate a manually created ServiceAccount token Secret for an existing account. On a cluster with permissive workload admission, acquiring the operator identity can expose a worker node.
This change addresses production-readiness finding C01 in the combined Helm installation. The follow-up work is tracked in #867.
Move API-managed credentials and module ConfigMaps into a dedicated namespace. The API retains release pod-log access. The operator reads registered-cluster credentials and module uploads in the new location.
Reject ServiceAccount token Secrets as module credentials. Require the owner of a private HTTP or Git credential to authorize its exact source URL. HTTP archives can follow redirects without credentials. Authenticated Git requires the final repository URL.
Deny creation and updates of persistent ServiceAccount token Secrets in protected namespaces. Enable Restricted Pod Security for fresh game installations and require the configured Pod Security labels on managed game namespaces. Reject system and control-plane namespaces as game namespaces. Projected agent tokens continue to work.
Guard live upgrades against missing, stale or mutable copies of immutable credentials, uploaded bundles and translated module ConfigMaps. The guard checks the running API and operator independently, including when enabling the native API on an operator-only release.
Upgrade impact
Native installs require Kubernetes 1.30 or newer with ValidatingAdmissionPolicy and PodSecurity admission enabled. Before upgrading, annotate each private HTTP or Git source's Secret with the exact source URL using gameplane.local/http-source-url or gameplane.local/git-source-url. Existing releases using --reuse-values can retain podSecurity.enforceRestricted=false. Follow the upgrade guide to migrate credentials and qualify workloads for Restricted admission. Keep cluster credential minting and privileged node diagnostics disabled in multi-tenant installations. Standalone panels continue to store management credentials in encrypted SQL.
Verification
The Kind regressions exercise access to the signer and release ConfigMaps using the API identity, token admission, a hostPath Job submitted by the operator, and agent heartbeats after token rotation. The upgrade suite checks missing and mismatched copies before a real Helm upgrade and exercises enabling the panel on an operator-only release. Module fetcher regressions verify Secret-side URL authorization and credential handling across redirects.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Restricted Pod Security enforcement is enabled by default for managed game namespaces.
API-managed credentials and module uploads can use a dedicated namespace, separate from system logs and module source credentials.
Admission protections block service-account-token Secrets in protected namespaces.
Module source credentials must be tied to their source URL, and credentials are not forwarded across redirects.
Upgrade checks flag missing or mismatched credential and upload migrations before proceeding.
Documentation
Updated installation, migration, security, and configuration guidance. Existing installations should complete the documented credential migration before upgrading.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The pull request separates API credentials, module ConfigMaps, and system logs into distinct namespace settings. It adds admission controls for Secrets and game workloads, changes the default for Restricted Pod Security enforcement, and validates credential and module-object copies during namespace migration.
The API resolves credentials and module ConfigMap namespaces separately. It passes the resolved namespace to relevant handlers and clients. The chart adds credentials-namespace permissions and limits the release-namespace API Role to log access. Documentation and tests use the credentials namespace for API-managed objects.
Separate module data and validate source credentials operator/cmd/main.go, operator/internal/controller/*, operator/internal/modsrc/*, operator/internal/oci/auth.go, operator/internal/secretscope/module.go, operator/internal/verify/*, operator/specs.md, api/internal/handlers/modules*.go, docs/module-authoring.md, test/e2e/*module*, test/e2e/i18n_module_locales_e2e_test.go
The operator adds --module-configmap-namespace for uploaded bundles and translations. It watches ConfigMaps in that namespace. Module fetch and verification reject service-account-token Secrets. Git and HTTP credentials must match the source URL, and authenticated redirects do not forward credentials.
The chart adds policies that deny service-account-token Secret creation or updates in protected namespaces. When Restricted enforcement is enabled, it also denies game Pods that do not meet the configured Restricted Pod Security labels. The default is now enabled.
Validate namespace migration on upgrade charts/gameplane/templates/validate-api-migration.yaml, docs/install.md, test/e2e/upgrade_e2e_test.go
Upgrade validation checks whether destination copies of managed Secrets and selected module ConfigMaps match their source objects. The upgrade tests cover missing or altered copies and successful dry runs with matching copies.
Specifications and examples describe the changed namespace settings, module credential requirements, and Restricted workload defaults. The SSE redaction test now checks typed server events and stream cancellation.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#884: The PR renames the API Role and RoleBinding to api-logs and limits the Role to log access, matching the issue’s focus on effective API permissions.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#883: The PR moves API-managed credentials and module data into a dedicated namespace; related RBAC and remote-authority work remains open.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#868: The PR enables Restricted Pod Security for game namespaces. Probe-host validation is not changed.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#869: The PR requires Pod Security labels for managed game namespaces. Network isolation is not addressed.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#882: The PR changes credential and module-data namespace migration. Offline render and PVC-retention work remains separate.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#867: The PR implements the credential namespace and identity boundary identified as prerequisite work. The broader audit and merge-order work remains open.
Possibly related PRs
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#835: Both PRs change API ConfigMap permissions and document remote-cluster prerequisites. The API’s ConfigMap access scope must align across the two changes.
GameplanePanel/Gameplane#764: Both PRs change Restricted Pod Security behavior, labels, and documentation. This PR enables the default and adds admission controls that use the Restricted profile.
Anonymous Git sources that redirect indefinitely might tie up the operator for up to two minutes per refresh. The impact is small and bounded. Confirm the go-git redirect limit or add a 10-hop cap to the callback; otherwise the change looks mergeable.

1045-1045: Security & Privacy
The concern does not hold for the namespaces it names. When the native API is enabled, validate.yaml rejects a credentials namespace that equals the release namespace, so the API RoleBindings cannot grant Secret or ConfigMap access there. The sentence in docs/security.md matches the rendered RBAC.

34-49: Include the module ConfigMap namespace in the overlap check.
The operator receives --module-configmap-namespace equal to the credentials namespace in non-standalone mode, so the $credentials check covers it. The rule is sound for that case. Ensure the $protected list stays aligned with the admission-policy list if either helper changes. No change required now.
operator/cmd/main.go: 2
307-312: Include the module ConfigMap namespace in the operator's namespace set only where needed.
moduleConfigMapNamespace joins protectedNamespaces (Line 312). It is not passed to secretscope.CacheOptions (Line 443). That omission is correct for ConfigMaps. The operator's ConfigMap reads come from the cluster-wide ClusterRole, and writes come from the credentials-namespace Role. No change is required.

The explicit api.credentialsNamespace value suppresses the chart’s credentials Namespace resource, so the claimed Helm ownership conflict does not follow. The retained fixtures have no demonstrated adverse effect.

[low] 285-285: Detected a potential hardcoded password literal, which may expose account credentials. Found in a test, fixture or example file.
The fallback matches the operator default. The prior chart passes the release namespace explicitly unless configured otherwise, so the preflight reads that value from the live Deployment.
Added the native credential migration release note and kubeVersion: ">=1.30.0-0" in a1f3b8e. The chart security test now requires Helm to reject Kubernetes 1.29.99 and render its admission policies on 1.30.0. It also rejects a 1.30 cluster that does not serve the GA admission policy API. Release note · Version-boundary assertions.
The Go source now documents the credential boundary for redirected Git clones, HTTP archives and cosign key Secrets. go-git v5.19.3 applies its own ten-hop check before the Gameplane hook. Gameplane's stricter authenticated-clone check prevents credential replay to another repository on the same host. go-git redirect wrapper · Gameplane transport.
The workload security chart contract passed on a1f3b8e, including both Kubernetes version assertions and the independent API-discovery check. All 110 CI jobs, visual regression and portable-path checks passed on that head. Chart contract · CI report.
The upstream rebase ended at 6be826f and omitted the seven files that carried the final review changes. Signed commit 9d4b344 restores them and records both histories for the dependent RBAC branches. Its tree exactly matches the previously reviewed branch merged with master ed18ec7. On 9d4b344, all 110 CI jobs passed, including the Helm version boundary and the amd64 and arm64 Kind admission and RBAC tests. The visual regression and portable-path workflows also passed. Seven-file diff · Current chart contract · Current CI report.
Reconcile the updated credential-boundary series with its reviewed tip so dependent security PRs share the same history. Restore the native credential release note, Kubernetes 1.30 boundary tests, and module credential contract documentation. The resulting tree matches the originally reviewed patch merged with current master.

Security fix
The native API could create and read Secrets in the release namespace alongside the operator ServiceAccount and the agent CA private key. Kubernetes can populate a manually created ServiceAccount token Secret for an existing account. On a cluster with permissive workload admission, acquiring the operator identity can expose a worker node.
This change addresses production-readiness finding C01 in the combined Helm installation. The follow-up work is tracked in #867.
Upgrade impact
Native installs require Kubernetes 1.30 or newer with ValidatingAdmissionPolicy and PodSecurity admission enabled. Before upgrading, annotate each private HTTP or Git source's Secret with the exact source URL using
gameplane.local/http-source-urlorgameplane.local/git-source-url. Existing releases using--reuse-valuescan retainpodSecurity.enforceRestricted=false. Follow the upgrade guide to migrate credentials and qualify workloads for Restricted admission. Keep cluster credential minting and privileged node diagnostics disabled in multi-tenant installations. Standalone panels continue to store management credentials in encrypted SQL.Verification
The Kind regressions exercise access to the signer and release ConfigMaps using the API identity, token admission, a hostPath Job submitted by the operator, and agent heartbeats after token rotation. The upgrade suite checks missing and mismatched copies before a real Helm upgrade and exercises enabling the panel on an operator-only release. Module fetcher regressions verify Secret-side URL authorization and credential handling across redirects.
