KEP-3962: Mutating Admission Policies
This KEP introduces mutating admission policies, declared using CEL expressions, improving on mutating admission webhooks. It leverages the power of CEL object construction and Server Side Apply’s merge algorithms to allow in-process mutations.
Mutations are specified within a MutatingAdmissionPolicy
resource, referencing parameter resources for configuration. Reinvocation
will support it as well. Metrics and safety checks are being developed to ensure idempotence and deterministic final states. While limitations exist (e.g., no deletion), this feature offers a declarative and efficient way to perform common mutations, reducing complexity and improving performance.
This KEP was created in 2023, and is planned to reach its alpha milestone in v1.30 release.
