Summary

Adds development-only, opt-in OCI runtime-spec diagnostics to FACT, plus a repeatable ACS/SigNoz validation lab.

When FACT_OCI_RUNTIME_SPEC_DEBUG=true (or oci_runtime_spec_debug: true), FACT reads a curated subset of the CRI-O OCI config.json and exposes it only in debug logs and container.oci.* OpenTelemetry attributes. The diagnostic data includes the configured root and process, capabilities, namespaces, sandbox information, and matching mount/source resolution.

This does not change event selection, filtering, or the Sensor gRPC payload. The default remains Sensor-only; the diagnostic mode is additive, and OpenTelemetry can be enabled alongside the Sensor connection.

The included deploy/acs-fact-lab documentation and scripts describe the validated lab workflow for deploying StackRox with Roxie, configuring RHACS-sensitive-file policies, collecting raw FACT output in SigNoz, and correlating it with ACS policy results.

Validation

  • Added unit coverage for OCI configuration parsing and configuration behavior.
  • The lab guide records the deployment and observed event classes from the rc-dev-cluster validation environment.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added optional OCI runtime diagnostics for container file-activity events.
    • OpenTelemetry records can now include container, Kubernetes, security, mount, and build metadata when enabled.
    • Added a configurable FACT_OCI_RUNTIME_SPEC_DEBUG environment variable and CLI option.
    • Added deployment manifests and scripts for FACT validation with ACS and SigNoz.
  • Documentation
    • Added configuration references, deployment runbooks, experiment procedures, inspection guidance, validated results, and teardown instructions.
  • Tests
    • Expanded coverage for debug configuration, OCI metadata resolution, and enriched telemetry attributes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds OCI runtime diagnostics and metadata enrichment to FACT, exposes build SHA data through OTEL resources, and adds ACS and SigNoz OpenShift validation deployments with experiment, query, documentation, and teardown tooling.

Changes

FACT diagnostics and validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration and build metadata
Containerfile, fact/build.rs, fact/src/config/*, docs/references.md
FACT accepts oci_runtime_spec_debug through YAML, CLI, and environment configuration. Builds record FACT_BUILD_SHA. Documentation and tests cover both settings.
OCI metadata resolution
fact/src/oci.rs
FACT resolves CRI-O container and sandbox metadata, matches OCI mounts to event paths, caches results, and validates ambiguous or unsafe paths.
Event and process enrichment
fact/src/event/*
Events can log OCI diagnostics and add optional OCI, process, container, Kubernetes, security, and sandbox attributes to OTEL output.
Runtime and OTEL output wiring
fact/src/lib.rs, fact/src/output/*
The debug setting flows from configuration to output. OTEL resources include service version and known build SHA values.
Validation deployments and workloads
deploy/acs-fact-lab/*, deploy/fact-signoz/*
The change adds restricted workloads, ACS policies, deployment scripts, experiment runners, query tools, teardown procedures, manifests, runbooks, and validated results.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 98803

OCI diagnostics can expose workload metadata and degrade event processing when enabled, while operator-managed configuration cannot currently carry the option reliably. The validation lab also has transport and timing weaknesses that should be addressed before merge.

Bound CACHE and cache only expiring misses. OCI-debug processing resolves each event. Positive entries persist for the process lifetime and retain OciDebugMetadata.mounts. Missing containers are rescanned across both runtime roots on every event because Ok(None) is not cached. Use a bounded, expiring cache for positive and Ok(None) results. Do not cache Err; transient filesystem or JSON errors must be retried.

In `@fact/src/output/mod.rs`:
- Around line 86-88: Update the oci_debug branch around log_oci_debug so it also
checks whether debug logging is enabled before calling Event::log_oci_debug,
using the logging-level facility already available. Preserve OCI diagnostics

Poll for the current run’s expected results before querying.

run-experiments.sh queries SigNoz and ACS once after 10 seconds. If processing takes longer, the commands can return incomplete results without failing. Poll the stable marker paths and current-run ACS alert IDs with a bounded timeout, then fail on timeout.

Kubernetes CRD structural schema unknown fields pruning preserve-unknown-fields official documentation

💡 Result:

In Kubernetes, CRD field pruning is the default behavior for objects defined with a structural schema under apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 [1][2]. When this feature is active, any fields present in a request that are not explicitly defined in the OpenAPI v3 schema are automatically removed (pruned) before the object is persisted to etcd [1][3]. To opt-out of this pruning behavior, you must use the OpenAPI vendor extension x-kubernetes-preserve-unknown-fields: true [4][1]. Key details regarding this behavior include: - Scope and Recursion: Setting x-kubernetes-preserve-unknown-fields: true at a specific level in your schema tells the API server to stop pruning unknown fields at that level [4][5]. This is recursive, meaning unknown fields and their sub-trees are preserved [1][5]. - Resetting Pruning: Pruning behavior is re-enabled if you define nested properties or additionalProperties within that schema branch [4][5]. In those cases, the pruning algorithm resumes and will prune any fields within those nested structures that are not explicitly defined [4][1]. - Deprecation of Global Flags: The older spec.preserveUnknownFields boolean field at the CRD level is deprecated in apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 [4]. It is strongly recommended to use the structural schema approach with x-kubernetes-preserve-unknown-fields instead [1][3]. - Limitations: Data preserved via x-kubernetes-preserve-unknown-fields is generally not accessible to server-side features like CEL (Common Expression Language) validation expressions [1]. Furthermore, using this feature can lead to data consistency issues when managing resources across multiple API versions, as fields not defined in a specific version's schema may be lost if a write request is made via that version without the explicit preservation setting [6]. For official guidance, refer to the Kubernetes documentation on CustomResourceDefinitions, specifically the sections covering field pruning and structural schemas [4][1].

FactConfig accepts oci_runtime_spec_debug, but spec.config does not declare it. Kubernetes prunes undeclared fields before reconciliation. Add the CRD property and test that the operator forwards it to the generated FACT configuration.

Gate the diagnostic call on the debug log level.

log_oci_debug calls crate::oci::resolve and metadata.match_mount before the log::debug! macro, per fact/src/event/mod.rs:377-443. The macro suppresses output when the level is above debug, but the resolution work still runs.

resolve performs synchronous fs::read_dir and fs::read_to_string. This blocks the output task worker on the path that forwards every event to broad_tx. A user who sets oci_runtime_spec_debug: true without debug logging pays the full cost and gets no output.

-                    if oci_debug {
+                    if oci_debug && log::log_enabled!(log::Level::Debug) {
                         event.log_oci_debug();
                     }

In `@fact/src/output/mod.rs` around lines 86 - 88, Update the oci_debug branch
around log_oci_debug so it also checks whether debug logging is enabled before
calling Event::log_oci_debug, using the logging-level facility already
available. Preserve OCI diagnostics when both oci_runtime_spec_debug and
debug-level logging are active, while avoiding resolve and metadata.match_mount
work otherwise.

Sensitive Data Exposure (CWE-532): Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

Reachability: Internal · Exploitability: Difficult

Document the sensitive data exposed by oci_runtime_spec_debug.

The documentation identifies OCI process, capability, mount, and path data, but it must also warn that these values can contain secrets and must not be enabled in production clusters.
