安全测验

支持版本: Istio 1.28.0 EKS 版本: 1.34 (Kubernetes 1.28+) 最后更新: February 23, 2026

本测验用于测试您对 Istio 安全功能的理解。

选择题(1-5)

问题 1:PeerAuthentication 模式

以下哪项正确描述了 PeerAuthentication 中的 PERMISSIVE mTLS 模式?

A. 它同时允许 mTLS 和明文流量 B. 它仅允许 mTLS 并拒绝明文流量 C. 它拒绝所有流量 D. 它禁用 mTLS

显示答案

答案:A

PERMISSIVE 模式同时允许 mTLS 和明文流量,以支持渐进式迁移。

说明:

PeerAuthentication mTLS 模式:

模式描述使用场景
PERMISSIVE同时允许 mTLS + 明文渐进式迁移、混合环境
STRICT仅允许 mTLS生产环境安全加固
DISABLE禁用 mTLS(仅明文)调试、旧版系统

PERMISSIVE 模式示例:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: PERMISSIVE  # Allows both mTLS + plaintext

行为:

Client A (Istio Sidecar) -> [mTLS] -> Server (PERMISSIVE)  Allowed
Client B (No Sidecar)    -> [Plaintext] -> Server (PERMISSIVE)  Allowed

与 STRICT 模式的对比:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: strict-mtls
  namespace: production
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: STRICT  # Only allows mTLS
Client A (Istio Sidecar) -> [mTLS] -> Server (STRICT)  Allowed
Client B (No Sidecar)    -> [Plaintext] -> Server (STRICT)  Rejected

迁移策略:

Step 1: PERMISSIVE (Allow mixed traffic)
  |
Step 2: Inject Sidecars to all services
  |
Step 3: STRICT (Enforce mTLS)

问题 2:AuthorizationPolicy 操作

以下 AuthorizationPolicy 配置表示什么?

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all
spec:
  {}

A. 它允许所有请求 B. 它拒绝所有请求 C. 它不应用任何策略 D. 它仅允许 mTLS

显示答案

答案:B

具有空 spec 的 AuthorizationPolicy 会拒绝所有请求(默认拒绝)。

说明:

AuthorizationPolicy 的默认行为:

  1. 不存在策略:允许所有请求
  2. 空 spec(如示例所示):拒绝所有请求
  3. 包含规则:根据规则允许/拒绝

默认拒绝模式:

yaml
# Step 1: Deny all requests
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all
  namespace: default
spec: {}  # Empty spec = deny all requests

---
# Step 2: Selectively allow only what's needed
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-frontend
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]

AuthorizationPolicy 操作类型:

操作描述优先级
DENY显式拒绝1(最高)
ALLOW显式允许2
AUDIT仅记录日志3
CUSTOM外部认证服务4

评估顺序:

1. Evaluate DENY policies -> If matched, immediately deny
   | (pass)
2. Evaluate ALLOW policies -> If matched, allow
   | (no match)
3. Default behavior
   - If any ALLOW policy exists -> Deny
   - If no ALLOW policy exists -> Allow

实际示例:

yaml
# Scenario: Restrict HTTP methods
---
# DENY: Prohibit DELETE
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-delete
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: DENY
  rules:
  - to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["DELETE"]

---
# ALLOW: Only allow GET, POST
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-read-write
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]

测试:

bash
# GET request -> Matches ALLOW policy -> Allowed
curl http://backend/api

# POST request -> Matches ALLOW policy -> Allowed
curl -X POST http://backend/api

# DELETE request -> Matches DENY policy -> Rejected
curl -X DELETE http://backend/api

# PUT request -> No ALLOW policy match -> Rejected
curl -X PUT http://backend/api

问题 3:JWT 认证

RequestAuthentication 中使用哪些字段验证 JWT Token?

A. issuer 和 audiences B. principals 和 namespaces C. methods 和 paths D. hosts 和 ports

显示答案

答案:A

RequestAuthentication 使用 issueraudiences 字段来验证 JWT Token。

说明:

JWT Token 结构:

Header.Payload.Signature

Payload example:
{
  "iss": "https://auth.example.com",        # issuer
  "sub": "user@example.com",                # subject
  "aud": ["api.example.com"],               # audiences
  "exp": 1735689600,                        # expiration
  "iat": 1735686000                         # issued at
}

RequestAuthentication 配置:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: RequestAuthentication
metadata:
  name: jwt-auth
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  jwtRules:
  - issuer: "https://auth.example.com"      # Validate iss field
    jwksUri: "https://auth.example.com/.well-known/jwks.json"
    audiences:
    - "api.example.com"                     # Validate aud field
    forwardOriginalToken: true

JWT 验证流程:

与 OIDC 提供商集成:

yaml
# Google OAuth2 example
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: RequestAuthentication
metadata:
  name: google-jwt
spec:
  jwtRules:
  - issuer: "https://accounts.google.com"
    jwksUri: "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/certs"
    audiences:
    - "123456789-abcdefg.apps.googleusercontent.com"

---
# Keycloak example
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: RequestAuthentication
metadata:
  name: keycloak-jwt
spec:
  jwtRules:
  - issuer: "https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm"
    jwksUri: "https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm/protocol/openid-connect/certs"
    audiences:
    - "myapp"

与 AuthorizationPolicy 结合:

yaml
# 1. RequestAuthentication: Validate JWT
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: RequestAuthentication
metadata:
  name: jwt-auth
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  jwtRules:
  - issuer: "https://auth.example.com"
    jwksUri: "https://auth.example.com/.well-known/jwks.json"

---
# 2. AuthorizationPolicy: Only allow authenticated requests
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: require-jwt
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        requestPrincipals: ["*"]  # Only requests with JWT
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]

---
# 3. AuthorizationPolicy: Only allow specific issuer
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: require-specific-issuer
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        requestPrincipals: ["https://auth.example.com/*"]

测试:

bash
# Request without JWT -> Passes RequestAuthentication, denied by AuthorizationPolicy
curl http://backend/api
# 401 Unauthorized

# Request with valid JWT
TOKEN="eyJhbGc..."
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" http://backend/api
# 200 OK

问题 4:mTLS 证书管理

Istio 中 mTLS 证书的默认有效期是多久?

A. 1 小时 B. 24 小时 C. 7 天 D. 90 天

显示答案

答案:B

Istio 中 mTLS 证书的默认有效期为 24 小时,并会自动续期。

说明:

Istio 证书管理:

yaml
# Istiod configuration (defaults)
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  meshConfig:
    certificates:
    - secretName: dns.example-service-account
      dnsNames:
      - example.com

默认设置:

  • 证书有效期:24 小时(1 天)
  • 续期时间:到期前 8 小时
  • 续期方式:自动(由 Istiod 管理)
  • 证书格式:X.509

证书生命周期:

检查证书:

bash
# Check pod's mTLS certificate
istioctl proxy-config secret <pod-name> -o json

# Example output:
{
  "name": "default",
  "tlsCertificate": {
    "certificateChain": {
      "inlineBytes": "LS0tLS1CRU..."
    },
    "privateKey": {
      "inlineBytes": "LS0tLS1CRU..."
    }
  },
  "validationContext": {
    "trustedCa": {
      "inlineBytes": "LS0tLS1CRU..."
    }
  }
}

# Decode certificate contents
kubectl exec <pod-name> -c istio-proxy -- \
  openssl x509 -text -noout -in /etc/certs/cert-chain.pem

# Example output:
Certificate:
    Validity
        Not Before: Jan 20 00:00:00 2025 GMT
        Not After : Jan 21 00:00:00 2025 GMT  # 24 hours later
    Subject: O=cluster.local
    X509v3 Subject Alternative Name:
        URI:spiffe://cluster.local/ns/default/sa/myapp

自定义有效期:

yaml
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  meshConfig:
    # Change certificate validity period
    defaultConfig:
      proxyMetadata:
        SECRET_TTL: "48h"  # Extend to 48 hours

证书续期失败场景:

bash
# Check Istiod logs
kubectl logs -n istio-system -l app=istiod

# Common issues:
# 1. Communication issues between Istiod and Envoy
# 2. RBAC permission issues
# 3. Blocked by network policies

# Manually trigger certificate renewal
kubectl delete pod <pod-name>  # Pod restart reissues certificate

SPIFFE ID:

Istio's mTLS certificates follow the SPIFFE (Secure Production Identity Framework For Everyone) standard.

Format: spiffe://<trust-domain>/ns/<namespace>/sa/<service-account>
Example: spiffe://cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend

CA 层次结构:

Root CA (Istiod)
  +- Intermediate CA (auto-generated)
  |   +- frontend Pod certificate (24 hours)
  |   +- backend Pod certificate (24 hours)
  |   +- database Pod certificate (24 hours)
  +- ...

外部 CA 集成:

yaml
# Using external CA with Cert-Manager
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  components:
    pilot:
      k8s:
        env:
        - name: EXTERNAL_CA
          value: ISTIOD_RA_KUBERNETES_API

问题 5:基于 Service Account 的认证

Istio 中用于服务到服务认证的身份是什么?

A. Pod 名称 B. Service 名称 C. Service Account D. Namespace 名称

显示答案

答案:C

Istio 基于 Service Account 管理服务到服务的身份。

说明:

基于 Service Account 的身份:

yaml
# 1. Create Service Account
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: frontend
  namespace: default

---
# 2. Use Service Account in Deployment
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: frontend
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      serviceAccountName: frontend  # Used as identity
      containers:
      - name: frontend
        image: frontend:v1

SPIFFE ID 格式:

spiffe://<trust-domain>/ns/<namespace>/sa/<service-account>

Examples:
spiffe://cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend
spiffe://cluster.local/ns/production/sa/backend

在 AuthorizationPolicy 中使用 Service Account:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: backend-policy
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  # Only allow frontend Service Account
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]
        paths: ["/api/*"]

  # admin Service Account allowed for all operations
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/default/sa/admin"

Service Account 与 Pod/Service 名称对比:

项目Service AccountPod 名称Service 名称
稳定性稳定动态变化稳定
安全性基于证书不可信不可信
RBAC 集成Kubernetes RBAC不可实现不可实现
mTLS包含在证书中不包含不包含

实际示例:三层应用程序:

yaml
# Frontend -> Backend only allowed
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: frontend
  namespace: app

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: backend
  namespace: app

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: database
  namespace: app

---
# Backend policy: Only allow Frontend access
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: backend-policy
  namespace: app
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/app/sa/frontend"]

---
# Database policy: Only allow Backend access
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: database-policy
  namespace: app
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: database
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/app/sa/backend"]

检查 Service Account:

bash
# Check pod's Service Account
kubectl get pod <pod-name> -o jsonpath='{.spec.serviceAccountName}'

# Check SPIFFE ID in mTLS certificate
istioctl proxy-config secret <pod-name> -o json | \
  jq -r '.dynamicActiveSecrets[0].secret.tlsCertificate.certificateChain.inlineBytes' | \
  base64 -d | openssl x509 -text -noout | grep URI

# Output:
# URI:spiffe://cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend

跨 Namespace 通信:

yaml
# Allow production namespace's frontend -> staging namespace's backend access
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: backend-policy
  namespace: staging
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/production/sa/frontend"
        namespaces:
        - "production"

简答题(6-10)

问题 6:实施默认拒绝安全策略

请逐步说明如何在 Kubernetes 集群中使用 Istio 实施默认拒绝安全策略。包括必需资源(PeerAuthentication、AuthorizationPolicy)和异常处理方法。

显示答案

答案:

实施默认拒绝安全策略:


第 1 步:启用 mTLS STRICT 模式

强制所有服务到服务通信使用 mTLS:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: STRICT  # Enforce mTLS

范围:

  • 部署在 istio-system Namespace 中 -> 应用于整个 mesh
  • 部署在特定 Namespace 中 -> 仅应用于该 Namespace
  • 使用 selector -> 仅应用于特定 workload

第 2 步:拒绝所有流量(默认拒绝)

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all
  namespace: default
spec: {}  # Empty spec = deny all requests

应用此策略后:

  • 拒绝所有入站流量
  • 阻止服务到服务通信
  • 阻止外部访问

第 3 步:选择性允许所需通信

示例 1:允许 Frontend -> Backend 通信

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-frontend-to-backend
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend  # Apply to Backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"  # Only allow Frontend
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]
        paths: ["/api/*"]

示例 2:允许 Backend -> Database 通信

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-backend-to-database
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: database
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/default/sa/backend"
    to:
    - operation:
        ports: ["5432"]  # PostgreSQL port

第 4 步:Ingress Gateway 策略

需要为 Ingress Gateway 配置策略以允许外部流量:

yaml
# Allow traffic to Ingress Gateway
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-ingress
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      istio: ingressgateway
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - to:
    - operation:
        ports: ["80", "443"]

---
# Allow Ingress Gateway -> Frontend
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-gateway-to-frontend
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: frontend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/istio-system/sa/istio-ingressgateway-service-account"

第 5 步:健康检查和就绪探针例外

处理例外,以免 Kubernetes 健康检查被阻止:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-health-checks
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  # Allow Kubernetes health checks
  - to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/health", "/ready"]
        methods: ["GET"]

或者在 PeerAuthentication 中排除特定端口:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: default
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: STRICT
  portLevelMtls:
    8080:
      mode: DISABLE  # Disable mTLS for health check port

第 6 步:监控和日志记录例外

允许 Prometheus 收集指标:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-prometheus
  namespace: default
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        namespaces: ["istio-system"]
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/istio-system/sa/prometheus"]
    to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/stats/prometheus"]
        methods: ["GET"]

完整示例:三层应用程序

yaml
# 1. mTLS STRICT
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: production
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: STRICT

# 2. Deny-by-default
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all
  namespace: production
spec: {}

# 3. Ingress -> Frontend
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-ingress-to-frontend
  namespace: production
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: frontend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/istio-system/sa/istio-ingressgateway-service-account"]

# 4. Frontend -> Backend
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-frontend-to-backend
  namespace: production
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/production/sa/frontend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE"]
        paths: ["/api/*"]

# 5. Backend -> Database
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-backend-to-database
  namespace: production
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: database
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/production/sa/backend"]

# 6. Health Checks
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-health-checks
  namespace: production
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/health", "/ready", "/live"]

# 7. Prometheus metrics
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-prometheus
  namespace: production
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        namespaces: ["istio-system"]
    to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/stats/prometheus"]

测试和验证:

bash
# 1. Frontend -> Backend (allowed)
kubectl exec -it <frontend-pod> -- curl http://backend/api
# 200 OK

# 2. Direct Database access (denied)
kubectl exec -it <frontend-pod> -- curl http://database:5432
# 403 RBAC: access denied

# 3. External direct Backend access (denied)
curl http://<ingress-gateway>/backend
# 403 RBAC: access denied

# 4. Normal path (allowed)
curl http://<ingress-gateway>/frontend
# 200 OK

最佳实践:

  1. 渐进式应用
    • 首先以 PERMISSIVE 模式启用 mTLS
    • 验证所有服务均已注入 Sidecar
    • 切换到 STRICT 模式
    • 应用默认拒绝策略
  2. 最小权限原则
    • 仅允许所需的最小通信范围
    • 限制 HTTP 方法(仅 GET、仅 POST 等)
    • 限制路径(仅 /api/* 等)
  3. 异常处理
    • 始终处理健康检查例外
    • 允许监控系统访问
    • 配置 Ingress Gateway 策略
  4. 测试
    • 每应用一项策略后进行测试
    • 检查副作用(日志、指标)
    • 准备回滚计划

问题 7:JWT + mTLS 双重认证

在 Istio 中实施一个同时使用**最终用户认证(JWT)服务到服务认证(mTLS)**的场景。包括如何与 OAuth2/OIDC 提供商(例如 Keycloak)集成。

显示答案

答案:

JWT + mTLS 双重认证架构:

User
  | (JWT Token)
Ingress Gateway (Validate JWT with RequestAuthentication)
  | (mTLS)
Frontend (Validate mTLS with PeerAuthentication)
  | (mTLS)
Backend

第 1 步:Keycloak 设置

bash
# Create Keycloak Realm
Realm: myrealm

# Create Client
Client ID: myapp
Access Type: confidential
Valid Redirect URIs: http://myapp.example.com/*

# Get JWKS URI
https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm/protocol/openid-connect/certs

第 2 步:启用 mTLS(服务到服务认证)

yaml
# Apply STRICT mTLS to entire mesh
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: STRICT

第 3 步:配置 JWT 认证(最终用户认证)

yaml
# Validate JWT at Ingress Gateway
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: RequestAuthentication
metadata:
  name: jwt-ingress
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      istio: ingressgateway
  jwtRules:
  - issuer: "https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm"
    jwksUri: "https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm/protocol/openid-connect/certs"
    audiences:
    - "myapp"
    forwardOriginalToken: true  # Forward JWT to backend
    outputPayloadToHeader: "x-jwt-payload"  # Extract payload to header

第 4 步:配置 AuthorizationPolicy

Ingress Gateway 策略

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: ingress-jwt-policy
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      istio: ingressgateway
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  # Only allow requests with JWT
  - from:
    - source:
        requestPrincipals: ["*"]
    to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/api/*", "/app/*"]

  # Allow health checks without JWT
  - to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/health", "/ready"]

Backend 策略

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: backend-jwt-mtls-policy
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  # 1. mTLS: Only allow Frontend Service Account
  # 2. JWT: Must have valid JWT
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"]
        requestPrincipals: ["https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm/*"]
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]

第 5 步:基于角色的访问控制

基于 JWT 声明进行细粒度授权:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: backend-rbac
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  # Only Admin role allowed for DELETE
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"]
        requestPrincipals: ["*"]
    when:
    - key: request.auth.claims[roles]
      values: ["admin"]
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["DELETE"]
        paths: ["/api/admin/*"]

  # User role only allowed GET, POST
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"]
        requestPrincipals: ["*"]
    when:
    - key: request.auth.claims[roles]
      values: ["user"]
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]
        paths: ["/api/users/*"]

第 6 步:利用 JWT Payload

在 Backend 中使用 JWT Payload:

yaml
# EnvoyFilter to pass JWT claims as headers
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: EnvoyFilter
metadata:
  name: jwt-claim-to-header
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  workloadSelector:
    labels:
      istio: ingressgateway
  configPatches:
  - applyTo: HTTP_FILTER
    match:
      context: GATEWAY
      listener:
        filterChain:
          filter:
            name: "envoy.filters.network.http_connection_manager"
            subFilter:
              name: "envoy.filters.http.jwt_authn"
    patch:
      operation: INSERT_AFTER
      value:
        name: envoy.lua
        typed_config:
          "@type": type.googleapis.com/envoy.extensions.filters.http.lua.v3.Lua
          inline_code: |
            function envoy_on_request(request_handle)
              local payload = request_handle:headers():get("x-jwt-payload")
              if payload then
                -- Base64 decode and JSON parse
                local json = require("json")
                local decoded = json.decode(payload)

                -- Pass user info as headers
                request_handle:headers():add("x-user-id", decoded.sub)
                request_handle:headers():add("x-user-email", decoded.email)
                request_handle:headers():add("x-user-roles", table.concat(decoded.roles, ","))
              end
            end

第 7 步:完整示例

        requestPrincipals: ["*"]

Backend

yaml
---
# mTLS STRICT
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: backend-mtls
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:

  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/frontend"]
        requestPrincipals: ["https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm/*"]

测试:

bash
# 1. Get token from Keycloak
TOKEN=$(curl -X POST \
  "https://keycloak.example.com/realms/myrealm/protocol/openid-connect/token" \
  -d "client_id=myapp" \
  -d "client_secret=<secret>" \
  -d "grant_type=password" \
  -d "username=user@example.com" \
  -d "password=password123" \
  | jq -r '.access_token')

# 2. Call API with JWT
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  http://myapp.example.com/api/users

# 3. Call without JWT (fails)
curl http://myapp.example.com/api/users
# 401 Unauthorized

# 4. Invalid JWT (fails)
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer invalid-token" \
  http://myapp.example.com/api/users
# 401 Unauthorized

安全优势:

  1. 双重认证
    • JWT:验证最终用户身份
    • mTLS:验证服务身份
  2. 纵深防御
    • 在 Gateway 处验证 JWT
    • 服务之间通过 mTLS 加密通信
    • 使用 AuthorizationPolicy 进行细粒度授权
  3. 基于角色的访问控制(RBAC)
    • 基于 JWT 声明的授权管理
    • 动态权限更新(在 Keycloak 中管理)

问题 8:外部服务访问控制

说明如何在 Istio 中控制出口流量,使其仅允许访问特定外部服务。包括使用 ServiceEntryVirtualServiceAuthorizationPolicy 的完整示例。

显示答案

答案:

出口流量控制策略:


第 1 步:检查出口流量默认模式

Istio 支持两种出口模式:

yaml
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  meshConfig:
    outboundTrafficPolicy:
      mode: REGISTRY_ONLY  # or ALLOW_ANY

模式对比:

模式描述安全性
ALLOW_ANY允许所有外部流量(默认)
REGISTRY_ONLY仅允许在 ServiceEntry 中注册的服务

切换到 REGISTRY_ONLY 模式:

bash
istioctl install --set meshConfig.outboundTrafficPolicy.mode=REGISTRY_ONLY

第 2 步:使用 ServiceEntry 注册外部服务

示例 1:HTTPS API(GitHub)

yaml
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: ServiceEntry
metadata:
  name: github-api
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.github.com
  ports:
  - number: 443
    name: https
    protocol: HTTPS
  location: MESH_EXTERNAL
  resolution: DNS

示例 2:HTTP API(httpbin)

yaml
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: ServiceEntry
metadata:
  name: httpbin-ext
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - httpbin.org
  ports:
  - number: 80
    name: http
    protocol: HTTP
  - number: 443
    name: https
    protocol: HTTPS
  location: MESH_EXTERNAL
  resolution: DNS

示例 3:特定 IP 地址

yaml
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: ServiceEntry
metadata:
  name: external-database
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - database.external.com
  addresses:
  - 203.0.113.10  # Specific IP
  ports:
  - number: 5432
    name: postgres
    protocol: TCP
  location: MESH_EXTERNAL
  resolution: STATIC
  endpoints:
  - address: 203.0.113.10

第 3 步:使用 VirtualService 控制流量

超时和重试设置

yaml
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: github-api-vs
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.github.com
  http:
  - timeout: 10s
    retries:
      attempts: 3
      perTryTimeout: 3s
      retryOn: 5xx,reset,connect-failure
    route:
    - destination:
        host: api.github.com

添加 Header(API Key)

yaml
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: external-api-vs
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.example.com
  http:
  - headers:
      request:
        add:
          X-API-Key: "my-secret-key"
    route:
    - destination:
        host: api.example.com

第 4 步:使用 AuthorizationPolicy 进行访问控制

仅允许特定 Service Account

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-github-api
  namespace: default
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  # Only allow Backend Service Account to access GitHub API
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/backend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        hosts: ["api.github.com"]

仅允许特定路径

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-specific-api
  namespace: default
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/backend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        hosts: ["api.example.com"]
        paths: ["/v1/data", "/v1/status"]
        methods: ["GET"]

第 5 步:使用 Egress Gateway(可选)

集中式出口控制:

yaml
# Deploy Egress Gateway
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  components:
    egressGateways:
    - name: istio-egressgateway
      enabled: true
      k8s:
        replicas: 2

---
# Define Gateway
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: Gateway
metadata:
  name: egress-gateway
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    istio: egressgateway
  servers:
  - port:
      number: 443
      name: https
      protocol: HTTPS
    hosts:
    - api.github.com
    tls:
      mode: PASSTHROUGH  # Pass TLS traffic through

---
# DestinationRule
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: DestinationRule
metadata:
  name: egress-gateway-dr
  namespace: default
spec:
  host: istio-egressgateway.istio-system.svc.cluster.local
  subsets:
  - name: github

---
# VirtualService: Pod -> Egress Gateway
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: github-through-egress
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.github.com
  gateways:
  - mesh  # From Sidecar
  - egress-gateway
  http:
  - match:
    - gateways:
      - mesh  # Starting from Pod
      port: 443
    route:
    - destination:
        host: istio-egressgateway.istio-system.svc.cluster.local
        subset: github
        port:
          number: 443
  - match:
    - gateways:
      - egress-gateway  # From Egress Gateway
      port: 443
    route:
    - destination:
        host: api.github.com
        port:
          number: 443

流量流向:

Pod -> Sidecar -> Egress Gateway -> External Service

第 6 步:完整示例

场景:仅允许 Backend 服务访问 GitHub API

yaml
# 1. Set REGISTRY_ONLY mode
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: istio
  namespace: istio-system
data:
  mesh: |
    outboundTrafficPolicy:
      mode: REGISTRY_ONLY

# 2. GitHub API ServiceEntry
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: ServiceEntry
metadata:
  name: github-api
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.github.com
  ports:
  - number: 443
    name: https
    protocol: HTTPS
  location: MESH_EXTERNAL
  resolution: DNS

# 3. VirtualService: Timeout and retry
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: github-api-vs
  namespace: default
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.github.com
  http:
  - timeout: 30s
    retries:
      attempts: 3
      perTryTimeout: 10s
      retryOn: 5xx,reset,connect-failure
    route:
    - destination:
        host: api.github.com
        port:
          number: 443

# 4. AuthorizationPolicy: Only allow Backend
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-backend-github
  namespace: default
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/default/sa/backend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        hosts: ["api.github.com"]
        methods: ["GET", "POST"]

# 5. Deny-by-default (block all other egress)
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all-egress
  namespace: default
spec:
  action: DENY
  rules:
  - to:
    - operation:
        hosts: ["*"]

测试:

bash
# 1. Call GitHub API from Backend (allowed)
kubectl exec -it <backend-pod> -- \
  curl -I https://api.github.com/users/octocat
# 200 OK

# 2. Call GitHub API from Frontend (denied)
kubectl exec -it <frontend-pod> -- \
  curl -I https://api.github.com/users/octocat
# Connection refused

# 3. Call other external service from Backend (denied)
kubectl exec -it <backend-pod> -- \
  curl -I https://google.com
# Connection refused (No ServiceEntry)

监控:

bash
# Check egress traffic
kubectl exec -it <backend-pod> -c istio-proxy -- \
  curl localhost:15000/stats/prometheus | grep upstream_cx_total

# Check ServiceEntry
istioctl proxy-config clusters <backend-pod> | grep github

安全优势:

  1. 白名单方法:仅允许访问在 ServiceEntry 中注册的服务
  2. 基于 Service Account 的控制:仅特定服务可以调用外部 API
  3. 审计和日志记录:可以记录所有出口流量
  4. 集中式管理:通过 Egress Gateway 监控所有外部流量

问题 9:安全审计和日志记录

说明如何在 Istio 中审计和记录安全相关事件。包括 AuthorizationPolicy 的 AUDIT 操作Access Log 配置。

显示答案

答案:

Istio 安全审计和日志记录策略:


1. AuthorizationPolicy AUDIT 操作

AUDIT 操作记录流量,但不会阻止流量。

基本 AUDIT 策略

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: audit-all-requests
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: AUDIT
  rules:
  - {}  # Audit all requests

仅审计特定条件

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: audit-sensitive-operations
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: AUDIT
  rules:
  # Audit DELETE operations
  - to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["DELETE"]

  # Audit Admin API access
  - to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/api/admin/*"]

  # Audit external IP access
  - from:
    - source:
        notNamespaces: ["default", "production"]

2. 启用访问日志

为整个 mesh 启用访问日志

yaml
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  meshConfig:
    accessLogFile: /dev/stdout
    accessLogEncoding: JSON
    accessLogFormat: |
      {
        "start_time": "%START_TIME%",
        "method": "%REQ(:METHOD)%",
        "path": "%REQ(X-ENVOY-ORIGINAL-PATH?:PATH)%",
        "protocol": "%PROTOCOL%",
        "response_code": "%RESPONSE_CODE%",
        "response_flags": "%RESPONSE_FLAGS%",
        "bytes_received": "%BYTES_RECEIVED%",
        "bytes_sent": "%BYTES_SENT%",
        "duration": "%DURATION%",
        "upstream_service_time": "%RESP(X-ENVOY-UPSTREAM-SERVICE-TIME)%",
        "x_forwarded_for": "%REQ(X-FORWARDED-FOR)%",
        "user_agent": "%REQ(USER-AGENT)%",
        "request_id": "%REQ(X-REQUEST-ID)%",
        "authority": "%REQ(:AUTHORITY)%",
        "upstream_host": "%UPSTREAM_HOST%",
        "upstream_cluster": "%UPSTREAM_CLUSTER%",
        "upstream_local_address": "%UPSTREAM_LOCAL_ADDRESS%",
        "downstream_local_address": "%DOWNSTREAM_LOCAL_ADDRESS%",
        "downstream_remote_address": "%DOWNSTREAM_REMOTE_ADDRESS%",
        "requested_server_name": "%REQUESTED_SERVER_NAME%",
        "route_name": "%ROUTE_NAME%"
      }

仅应用于特定 Namespace

yaml
apiVersion: telemetry.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: Telemetry
metadata:
  name: access-logging
  namespace: production
spec:
  accessLogging:
  - providers:
    - name: envoy

3. 用于安全审计的自定义日志过滤器

包含 mTLS 信息

yaml
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  meshConfig:
    accessLogFile: /dev/stdout
    accessLogFormat: |
      [%START_TIME%] "%REQ(:METHOD)% %REQ(X-ENVOY-ORIGINAL-PATH?:PATH)% %PROTOCOL%"
      %RESPONSE_CODE% %RESPONSE_FLAGS%
      %BYTES_RECEIVED% %BYTES_SENT% %DURATION%
      "%REQ(X-FORWARDED-FOR)%" "%REQ(USER-AGENT)%"
      "%REQ(X-REQUEST-ID)%" "%REQ(:AUTHORITY)%"
      "%UPSTREAM_HOST%" "%DOWNSTREAM_REMOTE_ADDRESS%"
      mtls=%DOWNSTREAM_PEER_ISSUER% peer=%DOWNSTREAM_PEER_URI_SAN%

包含授权信息

yaml
apiVersion: telemetry.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: Telemetry
metadata:
  name: security-audit-logging
  namespace: default
spec:
  accessLogging:
  - providers:
    - name: envoy
    filter:
      expression: response.code >= 400  # Log only errors

4. 与外部日志系统集成

使用 FluentBit 发送到 CloudWatch

yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: fluent-bit-config
  namespace: istio-system
data:
  fluent-bit.conf: |
    [SERVICE]
        Flush         5
        Log_Level     info

    [INPUT]
        Name              tail
        Path              /var/log/containers/*istio-proxy*.log
        Parser            docker
        Tag               istio.proxy
        Refresh_Interval  5

    [FILTER]
        Name    parser
        Match   istio.proxy
        Parser  istio-access-log

    [OUTPUT]
        Name cloudwatch_logs
        Match   istio.proxy
        region  us-east-1
        log_group_name  /aws/eks/istio/access-logs
        log_stream_prefix proxy-
        auto_create_group true

Elasticsearch 集成

yaml
apiVersion: telemetry.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: Telemetry
metadata:
  name: elasticsearch-logging
  namespace: default
spec:
  accessLogging:
  - providers:
    - name: envoy
    filter:
      expression: |
        response.code >= 400 ||
        request.headers['x-audit'] == 'true'

5. 完整安全审计配置

yaml
# 1. AUDIT Policy: Audit sensitive operations
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: audit-sensitive
  namespace: production
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: AUDIT
  rules:
  # DELETE operations
  - to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["DELETE"]

  # Admin API
  - to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/api/admin/*"]

  # Access from outside production
  - from:
    - source:
        notNamespaces: ["production"]

# 2. DENY Policy: Actually block
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:

6. 日志分析查询

Prometheus 查询

promql
# Authorization deny count
sum(rate(
  envoy_http_rbac_denied_total[5m]
)) by (namespace, pod)

# AUDIT action trigger count
sum(rate(
  envoy_http_rbac_logged_total[5m]
)) by (namespace, pod)

fields @timestamp, method, path, response_code, downstream_remote_address
| filter method = "DELETE"
| sort @timestamp desc
| limit 100

# Admin API access
fields @timestamp, path, response_code, downstream_remote_address, user_agent
| filter path like /api/admin/
| sort @timestamp desc

# Failed Authorization
fields @timestamp, path, response_code, response_flags
| filter response_code = 403
| stats count() by bin(5m)

7. Grafana 仪表板

yaml
# Panel 1: Authorization deny rate
rate(envoy_http_rbac_denied_total[5m])

# Panel 2: AUDIT log trend
rate(envoy_http_rbac_logged_total[5m])

# Panel 3: 403 response distribution
sum by (destination_service_name) (
  rate(istio_requests_total{response_code="403"}[5m])
)

# Panel 4: Sensitive operations (DELETE)
sum by (destination_service_name) (
  rate(istio_requests_total{request_method="DELETE"}[5m])
)

8. 告警配置

yaml
# PrometheusRule
apiVersion: monitoring.coreos.com/v1
kind: PrometheusRule
metadata:
  name: istio-security-alerts
  namespace: monitoring
spec:
  groups:
  - name: istio-security
    interval: 30s
    rules:
    # High Authorization deny rate
    - alert: HighAuthorizationDenyRate
      expr: |
        sum(rate(envoy_http_rbac_denied_total[5m])) by (namespace)
        > 10
      for: 5m
      labels:
        severity: warning
      annotations:
        summary: "High authorization deny rate in {{ $labels.namespace }}"
        description: "{{ $value }} denials per second"

    # Unauthorized Admin API access attempt
    - alert: UnauthorizedAdminAccess
      expr: |
        sum(rate(istio_requests_total{
          request_url_path=~"/api/admin/.*",
          response_code="403"
        }[5m])) > 0
      for: 1m
      labels:
        severity: critical
      annotations:
        summary: "Unauthorized admin API access attempt"

最佳实践:

  1. 先 AUDIT,后 DENY
    • 以 AUDIT 启动新策略
    • 分析日志后切换到 DENY
  2. 选择性日志记录
    • 记录所有流量会增加成本
    • 仅记录敏感操作
  3. 日志保留
    • 安全审计:至少 90 天
    • 合规:1 年或更久
  4. 实时告警
    • 针对未授权访问尝试立即发出告警
    • 检测异常模式

问题 10:实施零信任网络

说明如何使用 Istio 实施零信任网络原则。包括应用 mTLS STRICT默认拒绝最小权限原则的完整示例。

显示答案

答案:

零信任网络原则:

  1. 永不信任,始终验证:验证所有通信
  2. 最小权限:仅授予所需的最小权限
  3. 假定已被攻破:按已遭入侵的前提进行设计

Istio 零信任架构:

yaml
# 1. mTLS STRICT (Only encrypted communication allowed)
# 2. Deny-by-default (Deny all traffic by default)
# 3. Explicit Allow (Explicitly allow required communication only)
# 4. Identity-based (Based on Service Account)
# 5. Fine-grained (Path/method level control)

第 1 步:mTLS STRICT 模式

加密所有服务到服务通信:

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: PeerAuthentication
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  mtls:
    mode: STRICT

验证:

bash
# Check mTLS status
istioctl authn tls-check <pod-name>.<namespace>

# Output:
# HOST:PORT                            STATUS     SERVER     CLIENT     AUTHN POLICY
# backend.default.svc.cluster.local    OK         mTLS       mTLS       default/default

第 2 步:默认拒绝策略

全局拒绝策略

yaml
# Apply to all Namespaces
---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all
  namespace: default
spec: {}

---
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-all
  namespace: production
spec: {}

第 3 步:最小权限

场景:三层 Web 应用程序

User -> Ingress Gateway -> Frontend -> Backend -> Database

创建 Service Accounts

yaml
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: frontend
  namespace: app

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: backend
  namespace: app

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: database
  namespace: app

Ingress Gateway -> Frontend

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-ingress-to-frontend
  namespace: app
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: frontend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/istio-system/sa/istio-ingressgateway-service-account"

Frontend -> Backend

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-frontend-to-backend
  namespace: app
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: backend
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/app/sa/frontend"
    to:
    - operation:
        methods: ["GET", "POST", "PUT"]  # Exclude DELETE
        paths: ["/api/v1/*"]  # Only v1 API
        ports: ["8080"]  # Specific port only

Backend -> Database

yaml
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-backend-to-database
  namespace: app
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: database
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals:
        - "cluster.local/ns/app/sa/backend"
    to:
    - operation:
        ports: ["5432"]  # PostgreSQL only

第 4 步:Namespace 隔离

阻止来自其他 Namespace 的访问:

yaml
# Block Production -> Staging
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: deny-cross-namespace
  namespace: production
spec:
  action: DENY
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        notNamespaces: ["production", "istio-system"]

第 5 步:基于时间的访问控制

使用 EnvoyFilter 实现基于时间的控制:

yaml
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: EnvoyFilter
metadata:
  name: time-based-access
  namespace: app
spec:
  workloadSelector:
    labels:
      app: backend
  configPatches:
  - applyTo: HTTP_FILTER
    match:
      context: SIDECAR_INBOUND
    patch:
      operation: INSERT_BEFORE
      value:
        name: envoy.filters.http.lua
        typed_config:
          "@type": type.googleapis.com/envoy.extensions.filters.http.lua.v3.Lua
          inline_code: |
            function envoy_on_request(request_handle)
              local hour = tonumber(os.date("%H"))
              -- Allow only business hours (9AM-6PM)
              if hour < 9 or hour >= 18 then
                request_handle:respond(
                  {[":status"] = "403"},
                  "Access denied outside business hours"
                )
              end
            end

第 6 步:出口流量控制

限制外部服务访问:

yaml
# REGISTRY_ONLY mode
apiVersion: install.istio.io/v1alpha1
kind: IstioOperator
spec:
  meshConfig:
    outboundTrafficPolicy:
      mode: REGISTRY_ONLY

---
# Register only approved external services
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: ServiceEntry
metadata:
  name: allowed-external-api
  namespace: app
spec:
  hosts:
  - api.approved-vendor.com
  ports:
  - number: 443
    name: https
    protocol: HTTPS
  location: MESH_EXTERNAL
  resolution: DNS

---
# Only allow Backend to access external API
apiVersion: security.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: AuthorizationPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-backend-egress
  namespace: app
spec:
  action: ALLOW
  rules:
  - from:
    - source:
        principals: ["cluster.local/ns/app/sa/backend"]
    to:
    - operation:
        hosts: ["api.approved-vendor.com"]

    to:
    - operation:
        paths: ["/stats/prometheus"]

# 2. Authorization test
# Frontend -> Backend (allowed)
kubectl exec -it <frontend-pod> -n app -- \
  curl http://backend:8080/api/v1/users

# Frontend -> Database (denied)
kubectl exec -it <frontend-pod> -n app -- \
  curl http://database:5432

# 3. Prometheus query
# Authorization deny count
sum(rate(envoy_http_rbac_denied_total[5m])) by (namespace, pod)

# 4. Grafana dashboard
# - mTLS connection count
# - Authorization deny rate
# - Service-to-service communication matrix

零信任检查清单:

  • mTLS STRICT 模式(加密所有通信)
  • 默认拒绝(默认拒绝所有流量)
  • 显式允许(仅允许必要内容)
  • 基于 Service Account 的身份
  • 最小权限(限制方法/路径/端口)
  • Namespace 隔离
  • 出口流量控制
  • 健康检查例外处理
  • 监控和审计
  • 定期策略审查
