Summary

  • Add explicit, per-component security context fields to the KatibConfig API (PodSecurityContext for suggestions, SecurityContext for early stopping and metrics collector containers)
  • Apply security contexts in the composer (suggestion deployments) and webhook (metrics collector sidecars), with backward compatibility for the legacy InjectSecurityContext flag
  • Update all 6 katib-config.yaml manifests with hardened defaults (runAsNonRoot, drop ALL capabilities, seccomp RuntimeDefault)

Test plan

  • go test ./pkg/apis/config/v1beta1/... — SecurityContext fields survive defaulting round-trip
  • go test ./pkg/controller.v1beta1/suggestion/composer/... — Deployment created with PodSecurityContext and early stopping SecurityContext
  • go test ./pkg/webhook/v1beta1/pod/... — Config SecurityContext takes precedence over legacy flag; fallback works; nil case preserved

Add explicit, per-component security context configuration to the
KatibConfig API so that suggestion deployments, early stopping sidecars,
and metrics collector sidecars can run with hardened security defaults.

- Add PodSecurityContext field to SuggestionConfig for pod-level security
- Add SecurityContext field to EarlyStoppingConfig and MetricsCollectorConfig
  for container-level security
- Apply security contexts in composer (deployments) and webhook (sidecars)
- Metrics collector config SecurityContext takes precedence over legacy
  InjectSecurityContext flag, preserving backward compatibility
- Update all 6 katib-config.yaml manifests with hardened defaults
  (runAsNonRoot, drop ALL capabilities, seccomp RuntimeDefault)
- Update deepcopy functions and add tests for all new fields
