Audit cluster admission control for gaps that let a non-compliant or hostile workload through: a validating webhook that fails open when its backend is unreachable, a policy that scopes by namespace or label and misses the namespaces that matter, a mutating webhook whose changes are trusted downstream, and an ordering or exemption that lets a privileged pod bypass the checks meant to stop it. Covers Kubernetes admission webhooks and policy engines that are supposed to enforce workload security…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Auditing admission control policy gaps: when the gatekeeper waves it through

Admission control is the cluster's gate: every create and update passes through validating and mutating
webhooks that are supposed to reject workloads that break policy, privileged pods, unsigned images,
over-broad service accounts, host mounts. The gate only protects the cluster if it actually fires on the
requests that matter and cannot be skipped. In practice it is riddled with quiet gaps: a webhook configured
to fail open so an unreachable backend admits everything, a policy scoped to some namespaces but not the one
an attacker targets, an exemption for system workloads that a hostile pod can wear, and a mutating webhook
whose output later stages trust without re-validating. A gate with a gap is worse than no gate, because teams
believe it is enforcing. You audit this by checking, for each policy, whether it fires on every relevant
request and whether anything can bypass it.

## When to use

- Admission webhooks or a policy engine are the control keeping non-compliant workloads out of the cluster.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/auditing-admission-control-policy-gaps@sha256:8ce416d97c90386c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.ce55026, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
