      RedHat allows following roles for system:anonymous user and system:unauthenticated group: 

      oc get clusterrolebindings -o json | jq '.items[] | select(.subjects[]?.kind

      == "Group" and .subjects[]?.name == "system:unauthenticated") |

      .metadata.name' | uniq

      Returns what unauthenticated users can do, which is the following:

      "self-access-reviewers"

      "system:oauth-token-deleters"

      "system:openshift:public-info-viewer"

      "system:public-info-viewer"

      "system:scope-impersonation"

      "system:webhooks"

      Customers would like to minimize the allowed permissions to unauthenticated groups and users. 

      Workaround available: Gating the access with policy engines 

      Outcome: Minimize the allowed roles for unauthenticated access 

      Goals of spike:

      1. Investigate impact of disabling the roles listed above for new and existing clusters
      2. Document risks and feasibility
