CWE	CWE-284: Improper Access Control
OWASP	A05:2017 - Broken Access Control
Confidence Level	Low
Impact Level	Low
Likelihood Level	Low

Description

The GKE cluster configuration enables basic authentication using a static username and password, which is insecure and should be disabled. This approach exposes the cluster to unauthorized access if credentials are leaked or guessed.

Impact

If exploited, attackers could gain administrative access to your Kubernetes cluster, allowing them to steal data, deploy malicious workloads, or disrupt services. This could lead to data breaches, service outages, and further compromise of your cloud environment.
