fix(flux): prevent automatic replacement of persistent resources - #4471
Conversation
Validation at
CI is rerunning. This is validation evidence, not a readiness verdict or a claim that deployment has completed. |
CI repair validation at The pinned Trivy v0.74.0 scan reproduced the template change and failed the former ratchet. Exactly five rows change: the tenant graph's content digest and the two existing low-severity finding-cause digests for each safer Kustomization template. Finding IDs, severities, counts, remaining graph evidence, and committed-instance evidence are unchanged. After updating only those measured hashes, the real scan passes for 16 templates from two graphs and two committed instances. The complete scanner regression suite passes, including changed causes under the same finding ID, default-deny conditions, privileged workloads, invalid namespaces and registries, resource constraints, and altered instance substitutions. No rules or exclusions change. Integrated current protected main, including the Bash guard. The force-safety and Bash guard tests pass; its actual repository scan reports CI is rerunning; this comment does not claim review, merge, or production deployment completion. |
The final head also rejects persistent-resource replacement settings that cannot be inspected safely: template expressions, typed annotation values, and expressions replacing the metadata or annotation map. The added table has 20 cases across both persistent resource kinds; 14 unsafe cases failed against the previous guard and pass after the repair. Ordinary missing annotations, the literal disabled value, and unrelated annotations remain accepted. The complete Go guard suite and the real rendered configuration pass after integrating protected main. Source and merge commits are signed. Earlier review evidence is superseded by this head; current-head CI and review are required before queue admission. |

- Direct current-PR review objects, comments, threads, and checks were read before this fallback. The complete thread census is empty and no provider finding is being discarded.
- The complete diff was reviewed for force-replacement semantics, persistent-resource safety, renderer and nested-template coverage, authorization conservation, workflow failure propagation, and documentation consistency.
- Exact-head validation passed the Go replacement-safety suite, rendered source/overlay guard, PVC retirement suite, Talos reconciliation tests, and the authorization suite with checksum-verified kubectl v1.36.2 / Kustomize v5.8.1. The installed v1.37.1 renderer was independently confirmed to fail closed.

Re-reviewed the refreshed diff after merging current main; layer-wide replacement remains disabled, persistent-resource opt-ins and uninspectable expressions fail closed, and authorization-surface conservation remains enforced. Exact-head verification passed 41 force-safety tests, the real render guard, 82 kernel-argument tests, the persistence guard, and 308 EKS policy-validator tests.

Review comments at @docs/deletion-and-data-retention.md:
- Around line 79-85: Update Decision item 5 to describe the current force-safety
configuration instead of claiming all four layers force: distinguish the three
setup Job opt-ins from layer-wide forcing, and state that this PR includes the
#4448 safeguard. Keep the force-safety work clearly separate from the ADR’s
storage-retention rollout.
Review comments at @scripts/validate-flux-force-safety/main.go:
- Around line 90-93: Update the error message in the force validation branch of
the relevant function to begin with a lowercase letter, preserving the existing
“literal boolean” wording so `main_test.go` continues to match it.

Re-reviewed the complete diff and the four conflict resolutions against the production merge of #4472. The shared Flux resource intentionally combines wait: false with force: false; CI retains both safety guards; and both authorization fingerprints were regenerated from the combined v1.36.2 render. Exact-head local verification passed 41 force-safety tests, both shell guards and ShellCheck, 82 kernel-argument tests, 308 authorization tests plus the rendered contract, the authorization diagnostics contract, 385 Kyverno cases, and the persistence-safety guard.
Verdict: no P0/P1 findings

Delivered: this PR merged at The winning CI run and its production deployment succeeded. Production authorization, signed publication verification, Flux reconciliation, API stability, and tenant release proof passed. The release proof covered three deployments, six pods, three routes, and nine public checks. Fresh read-only production readback confirms all eleven Flux Kustomizations are Ready and none has All thirty pre-deployment persistent-volume claims remain Bound with the same UIDs and volume bindings. The normal and historical ownership-phase repairs from #4474 and #4478 remain deployed. Raw inventory and deployment logs stay private. This closes the unsafe automatic-replacement path; the separate runtime latency, kernel-audit, and Kubescape consistency issues retain their own acceptance criteria. |
Why
Automatic replacement can discard persistent data during an otherwise routine deployment. The existing protection settings do not prevent it.
What
Make platform and tenant deployments stop on changes that require replacement, while preserving deliberate setup-job recreation. Add a required check to prevent unsafe replacement settings from returning.
Fixes #4448
