Summary

  • The allow-console-ingress NetworkPolicy opened port 9001/TCP to any pod in the cluster,
    despite the annotation stating it allows ingress "from the console" only.
  • Added a from: namespaceSelector matching kubernetes.io/metadata.name: openshift-console
    to enforce least-privilege networking and align the policy with its stated intent.

Fixes https://redhat.atlassian.net/browse/OTA-2108

Test plan

  • Unit tests pass (gotestsum --packages="./pkg/agenticrun/..." — 49 tests)
  • Deploy to a test cluster and verify the console plugin remains accessible from the OpenShift console
  • Verify that pods in other namespaces can no longer reach port 9001

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Updated network access rules to allow incoming traffic only from the OpenShift Console namespace.
    • Continued allowing TCP traffic on port 9001.

…nsole namespace

The allow-console-ingress NetworkPolicy opened port 9001 to any pod in
the cluster. Restrict ingress to the openshift-console namespace using a
namespaceSelector, matching the annotation's stated intent and enforcing
least-privilege networking.

Fixes OTA-2108

I don't see anything here about why @jhadvig didn't tune access like this (or even more tightly, can't we also match the app: console label?).

But also, the long-established monitoring ConsolePlugin doesn't bother to set from for their ConsolePlugin, so 🤷, doesn't seem like a particularly sensitive thing to protect.

Seems like there are lots of valid options in this space, and I'm not particular about which path we take. I'm fine with what we had before this pull. I'm fine with what this pull is delivering. And I'd be fine if folks wanted to tighten it down more. As long as the testing shows it still working, that's enough for me. The odds of someone exploiting the low-priviledge console-plugin service to harm a cluster or capture sensitive data seem very low.
