The first live build (Kaniko v1.24, 4 vCPU / 5.5 GiB node) walked the new
transport end to end and hit three real defects, each invisible to unit tests:
- The Job requested its FULL limits (2 CPU / 4Gi per container), so the build
Pod never scheduled on the platform's own starter node: FailedScheduling /
Insufficient memory, Pending forever. Requests are now a small floor
(250m / 512Mi, never above a configured cap) while the limits stay the
safety caps.
- Kaniko re-copies the Dockerfile out of the context and chowns/chmods it to
the source owner; a 65532-owned context (the distroless felis image uid)
fails that under the pod's dropped capabilities ('copying dockerfile:
chown /kaniko/Dockerfile: operation not permitted'). The fetch container
now extracts as root — the uid Kaniko already runs as — so the copy
succeeds; the pod was root by necessity regardless.
- Trivy's DB fetch is exactly what the build egress lock denies: the scan
step failed closed on mirror.gcr.io. New [registry] trivy_db_repository
renders --db-repository, and docs/troubleshooting.md §8e now carries the
verified mirror recipe (docker pull/tag/push of aquasec/trivy-db:2 into the
internal registry; --insecure already covers its plain HTTP).
Verified live after this batch: fetch initContainer streamed the blob through
the API + netpol + token, Kaniko built and pushed registry.felis.svc:5000/
user-uploads/sub-<id>:latest, and Trivy scanned against the mirrored DB.
