403 Error when opening remote shell into container

Hello, thank you very much for this very useful tool! When I try opening a remote shell into any of my pods I get a 403 error back. I am wondering if you know why that might be?

The error I see in kubebox is:

Error: Failed to get resource /api/v1/namespaces/<xxx>/pods/<xxx>/exec?stdout=1&stdin=1&stderr=1&tty=1&container=main&command=%2Fbin%2Fsh&command=-c&comma │

On the other hand I am able to open a shell into the main container using kubectl exec -it <xx> /bin/sh.

Thanks!

I noticed that kubectl uses a POST and kubebox uses a GET for the exec endpoint.

This fixed it for me:

Let me speculatively close this. Feel free to re-open if you still face the issue with the latest release version.
