Rotate apiKey in INSTALL_BUNDLE

L1 Bithead

We have been using the console to generate the YAML necessary to deploy a Defender Daemon Set to our k8s cluster (Compute -> Manage -> Defenders -> Deploy). The YAML includes an environment variable called INSTALL_BUNDLE. This INSTALL_BUNDLE includes an apiKey in it (you can tell by base64 --decoding the variable value).

 

Is there a way to rotate this apiKey? It seems to be an installation-wide apiKey, since it's the same regardless of which user generates the YAML.

Hey @AKing9 - I'm seeing this same issue.

 

Is it possible to rotate this key?

 

I incorrectly marked this as resolved. We never found out a way to rotate the key.

Hello,

 

The apiKey in INSTALL_BUNDLE cannot be rotated. The apiKey and other information is used for establishing Defender to Console communication. Defender communication is always one way so the most that an attacker could do would just be acting as a Defender. It could not query any Console data.
