OpenShift Container Platform 4.11.29 running with OpenShift Pipelines 1.8.2 which appears to have all Pod Security Admission settings in place is reporting below events, even though the respective containers have securityContext.seccompProfile.type set.

In this scenario, it's important to understand that the OpenShift Pipelines Operator is not installed in openshift-operators but instead in a custom project called project-openshift-pipelines.

Yet I'm failing to see the problem as OpenShift Pipelines is all running with restricted-v2 and again has all required SecurityContext settings applied.

OpenShift Container Platform 4.11.29

Always

1. Install OpenShift Pipelines into project-openshift-pipelines, using CLI instructions from https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.11/cicd/pipelines/installing-pipelines.html#op-installing-pipelines-operator-using-the-cli_installing-pipelines
2. Check kube-apiserver Audit logs for pod-security.kubernetes.io/audit-violations Events

No PodSecurityViolation being reported as all appears to be compliant
