Summary
This pull request addresses security concerns raised by Gosec regarding the use of insecure
HTTP.server
configurations in the Kubernetes Dashboard API and related components.Purpose
The goal is to enforce safe usage of the Go
http.Server
by ensuring proper timeout settings are applied to avoid risks such as:ReadHeaderTimeout
(G112 / CWE-400)Implementation
This PR resolves two classes of security warnings:
http.ListenAndServe
/ListenAndServeTLS
directly, which provide no timeout control.Replaced these calls with structured
http.Server
configurations including:ReadTimeout
;WriteTimeout
;IdleTimeout
;ReadHeaderTimeout
to structured servers to prevent Slowloris-style DoS attacks.Notes
These changes are based on security findings from Gosec.
No application logic is modified — only server initialization is hardened.
All warnings have been resolved in subsequent Gosec scans.
