What problem does it solve?

Kubernetes environments often suffer from misconfigurations and exposure across API servers, RBAC, networks, and secrets. This Skill provides a structured methodology to systematically identify and remediate these security gaps.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated reconnaissance of cluster topology and components (API server, etcd, kubelet, nodes, namespaces).
• RBAC and secret exposure checks, network policy validation, and pod security assessments.
• Use Case: Security teams performing regular hardening scans or incident-response postures to demonstrate risk reduction.

Quick Start

Run the Kubernetes penetration testing skill against a cluster to enumerate cluster information, verify permissions, detect secret exposures, and generate a structured security report.
