Yes, it is possible to run Nginx in a pod without gaining elevated privileges. This can be achieved by using Kubernetes Security Contexts to configure the user ID and group ID of the Nginx process running in the pod.
For example, you can define a SecurityContext for the Nginx container with a "runAsUser" and "runAsGroup" fields set to a non-root user and group, respectively.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: nginx-pod
spec:
containers:
- name: nginx
image: nginx
securityContext:
runAsUser: 1001
runAsGroup: 1001
This will start the Nginx process with UID and GID of 1001, which is a non-root user. This way, the Nginx process will not have elevated privileges and can run safely within the pod.
