Key Hierarchy in KMS plugin (reference implementation):

Expand All @@ -163,7 +163,7 @@ Key Hierarchy in KMS plugin (reference implementation):

Since key hierarchy is implemented at the KMS plugin level, it should be seamless for the kube-apiserver. So whether the plugin is using a key hierarchy or not, the kube-apiserver should behave the same.

What is required of the kube-apiserver is to be able to tell the KMS plugin which KEK (local KEK or KMS KEK) it should use to decrypt the incoming DEK. To do so, upon encryption, the KMS plugin could provide the encrypted local KEK as part of the `metadata` field in the `EncryptResponse`. The kube-apiserver would then store it in etcd next to the DEK. Upon decryption, the kube-apiserver provides the encrypted local KEK in `metadata` and `observedKeyID` from the last encryption when calling Decrypt. In case no encrypted local KEK is provided in the `metadata`, then we can assume key hierarchy is not used. The KMS plugin would query the external KMS to use the remote KEK to decrypt the DEK (same behavior as today). No state coordination is required between different instances of the KMS plugin.

For the reference KMS plugin, the encrypted local KEK is stored in etcd via the `metadata` field, and once decrypted, it can be stored in memory as part of the KMS plugin cache to be used for encryption and decryption of DEKs. The encrypted local KEK is used as the key and the decrypted local KEK is stored as the value.
