# Insecure Default Initialization of Resource (CWE-1188)

The product initializes a resource in an insecure way that is not in line with the intended privileges for the resource.

**Stack:** Kubernetes

- Prevalence: 高 频繁被利用
- Impact: 中 建议审查
- Prevention: 已记录 2 个修复示例

**OWASP:** Security Misconfiguration (A05:2021-Security Misconfiguration) - #5

## Description

When resources are initialized with insecure default settings, they may expose functionality or data that should be protected. Users may not realize they need to change default settings.

## Prevention

基于 2 条 Shoulder 检测规则的 Insecure Default Initialization 预防策略。

### Kubernetes

Deploy resources to an explicit namespace instead of 'default' for better isolation

Add liveness and readiness probes to ensure Kubernetes can monitor container health

## Warning Signs

- [LOW] Resource deployed to default namespace instead of explicit namespace
- [LOW] resources deployed to the default namespace
- [LOW] Container is missing liveness and/or readiness probes.
- [LOW] containers missing liveness and/or readiness probes

## Consequences

- 绕过保护机制
- 读取应用程序数据
- 获取权限

## Mitigations

- 为所有配置使用安全的默认值
- 记录配置项的安全影响
- 对不安全的选项要求显式启用

## Detection

- Total rules: 2
- Languages: yaml

## Rules by Language

### Yaml (2 rules)

- **Using Default Namespace** [LOW]: Detects resources deployed to the default namespace.
  - Remediation: Use an explicit namespace instead of 'default' for better organization and isolation.
- **Missing Health Probes** [LOW]: Detects containers missing liveness and/or readiness probes.
  - Remediation: Add liveness and readiness probes.

```yaml
livenessProbe:
  httpGet:
    path: /healthz
    port: 8080
```
