Thank you, Siva for the blog which made my life easy. Can I request some assistance to resolve the reported vulnerabilities by kube-bench in the Kubernetes cluster? 1:Please help me understand the difference between the FAIL and WARN messages? 2:How to identify the specific action required to resolve the vulnerabilities. I know there is a debug mode but checking if there are any better ways to identify the vulnerabilities.
