pspmigrator: Migrate from PSP to PSA

pspmigrator is a tool to make it easier for K8s users to migrate from PodSecurityPolicy (PSP) to PodSecurity Standards/Admission (PSA). The tool has the following features:

• CLI tool to interactively migrate you from PSP to PSA by looking at the running pods in a namespace and suggesting a Pod Security Standard
• Detect if PSP object is potentially mutating Pods
• Detect if a Pod is being mutated by a PSP object

Disclaimer: Migrating to PSA might cause new pods to no longer be allowed to run. So make sure you do test this out before applying PodSecurity Standards on your namespaces.

Status: Work in progress, usable for testing purposes

Installation

go install github.com/kubernetes-sigs/pspmigrator/cmd/pspmigrator

Alternatively, you can download a release from here

Usage

Start the migration from PSP to PSA

pspmigrator migrate
# example output
Checking if any pods are being mutated by a PSP object
Suggest using baseline in namespace default
✔ enforce
Applied pod security level baseline on namespace default in enforce control mode
Review the labels by running `kubectl get ns default -o yaml`
There are no pods running in namespace empty. Skipping and going to the next one.
Done with migrating namespaces with pods to PSA

Check if a specific pod called my-pod in namespace my-namespace is being mutated by a Pod Security Policy:

pspmigrator mutating pod my-pod -n my-namespace
# example output
Pod nginx-nonpriv-66b6c48dd5-rl6jt is mutated by PSP my-psp: true, diff: [slice[0]: <nil pointer> != v1.SecurityContext]
PSP profile my-psp has the following mutating fields: [DefaultAddCapabilities] and annotations: []
