User without CSR read permission can not view the Node page in Openshift console
Issue
- When attempting to view nodes in OpenShift web console, met with the follwoing error:
certificatesigningrequests.certificates.k8s.io is forbidden: User "xxxx" cannot list resource "certificatesigningrequests" in API group "certificates.k8s.io" at the cluster scope
- If you have permission to view nodes but not Certificate Signing Requests (CSR), you cannot access the Nodes list page.
- If a user has get and list access to the nodes resource they are able to see the nodes in the web console and CLI. Post upgrading to 4.16, the user can still see the nodes from the CLI but fails in the web console.
Environment
