administrators or developers may execute kubeletctl during legitimate troubleshooting or incident response to validate kubelet api connectivity or enumerate pods. confirm the user/session and change window before escalating.	t1059 t1609 t1613 linux elastic
an administrator may need to exec into a pod for a legitimate reason like debugging purposes. containers built from linux and windows os images, tend to include debugging utilities. in this case, an admin may choose to run commands inside a specific container with kubectl exec ${pod_name} -c ${container_name} -- ${cmd} ${arg1} ${arg2} ... ${argn}. for example, the following command can be used to look at logs from a running cassandra pod: kubectl exec cassandra --cat /var/log/cassandra/system.log . additionally, the -i and -t arguments might be used to run a shell connected to the terminal: kubectl exec -i -t cassandra -- sh	t1059 t1609 cloud_defend kubernetes elastic

there is a potential for false positives if the container is used for legitimate administrative tasks that require the use of container management utilities, such as deploying, scaling, or updating containerized applications. it is important to investigate any alerts generated by this rule to determine if they are indicative of malicious activity or part of legitimate container activity.	t1609 t1613 linux cloud_defend elastic
there is a potential for false positives if the direct interactive kubernetes api requests are used for legitimate purposes, such as debugging or troubleshooting. it is important to investigate any alerts generated by this rule to determine if they are indicative of malicious activity or part of legitimate container activity.	t1059 t1069 t1087 t1550 t1609 T1610 t1613 cross-platform cloud_defend elastic
there is a potential for false positives when the command line arguments looked for in this rule are used for legitimate purposes, such as debugging or troubleshooting. it is important to investigate any alerts generated by this rule to determine if they are indicative of malicious activity or part of legitimate container activity.	t1059 t1609 t1613 cloud_defend elastic
there is a risk of false positives if there are several containers named the same, as the rule may correlate the request to the wrong container.	t1059 t1069 t1087 t1528 t1550 t1552 t1609 T1610 t1613 cross-platform elastic
