SSH must not run within Linux containers.
Description
Discussion Text
To limit the attack surface of MKE, it is important that the nonessential services are not installed. Containers are designed to be lightweight and isolated, and introducing SSH can add attack vectors. Unauthorized access or exploitation of SSH vulnerabilities would compromise the security of the container and the host system. SSH is not necessary for process management within containers, as container orchestration platforms provide mechanisms for starting, stopping, and monitoring containerized processes. SSH access within containers may bypass auditing mechanisms, making it harder to track and audit user activities.
