kube-rbac-proxy

You can enable kube-state-metrics endpoint protection using kube-rbac-proxy. By setting kubeRBACProxy.enabled: true, this chart will deploy one RBAC proxy container per endpoint (metrics & telemetry). To authorize access, authenticate your requests (via a ServiceAccount for example) with a ClusterRole attached such as:

apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
  name: kube-state-metrics-read
rules:
  - apiGroups: [ "" ]
    resources: ["services/kube-state-metrics"]
    verbs:
      - get

See kube-rbac-proxy examples for more details.
