bug: "invalid memory address" for FalconImageAnalyzer resource

[comptonad]

I created the following FalconImageAnalyzer resource:

apiVersion: falcon.crowdstrike.com/v1alpha1
kind: FalconImageAnalyzer
metadata:
  name: falcon-image-analyzer
spec:
  installNamespace: falcon-image-analyzer
  image: <our-registry>/crowdstrike/falcon-imageanalyzer:1.0.13
  imageAnalyzerConfig:
    clusterName: <our-cluster-name>
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    imagePullSecrets:
      - name: <our-secret-name>

And now the falcon-operator is in a CrashLoopBackOff with the following error:

2024-08-07T17:19:48Z	INFO	Observed a panic in reconciler: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference	{"controller": "falconimageanalyzer", "controllerGroup": "falcon.crowdstrike.com", "controllerKind": "FalconImageAnalyzer", "FalconImageAnalyzer": {"name":"falcon-image-analyzer"}, "namespace": "", "name": "falcon-image-analyzer", "reconcileID": "4708945a-7892-4e55-81b0-da27cb541104"}

Looking at the line in the error above, the FalconImageAnalyzer controller is expecting the FalconAPI struct to exist which it does not on the resource I created.

There seems to be a gap in the logic around the config map handling here but I'm not confident enough in my understanding of what is supposed to happen here to create a PR with a fix.

Hello,

Currently, having FalconAPI configured and set is required for IAR functionality.

[comptonad]

I've attempted to add FalconAPI but I'm seeing 403s in the image analyzer pod logs. What permissions are needed in this case?

time="2024-08-07T20:33:23Z" level=error msg="error getting imageanalyzer config. will try again" mode=watcher error="received 403 from uri https://api.crowdstrike.com/image-assessment/runtime/entities/config/v1 - response = {\n \"meta\": {\n  \"query_time\": 1.28e-7,\n  \"powered_by\": \"crowdstrike-api-gateway\",\n  \"trace_id\": \"17b24113-f416-4eb3-99b8-1018bbc50fa5\"\n },\n \"errors\": [\n  {\n   \"code\": 403,\n   \"message\": \"access denied, authorization failed\"\n  }\n ]\n}"

I've followed the readme and like the CRD readmes it says I only need Falcon Images Download: Read and Sensor Download: Read, which to my understanding is just for pulling the docker images if an image is not specified. And to note, the credentials I've provided work for the falcon-container-sensor-pull.sh script so I know they are valid.

Minor update with additional context, in the above example I had falcon_api.cloud_region set to us-1. When I try the value us-2 I get 401s

time="2024-08-08T14:27:37Z" level=error msg="error getting imageanalyzer config. will try again" mode=watcher error="received 401 from uri https://api.us-2.crowdstrike.com/image-assessment/runtime/entities/config/v1 - response = {\n \"meta\": {\n  \"query_time\": 1.61e-7,\n  \"powered_by\": \"crowdstrike-api-gateway\",\n  \"trace_id\": \"becccaf4-8c36-4890-a20e-cd1b814e3cdc\"\n },\n \"errors\": [\n  {\n   \"code\": 401,\n   \"message\": \"access denied, invalid bearer token\"\n  }\n ]\n}"

And just for kicks I tried autodiscover (noted in some of the other resources) and I got this

time="2024-08-08T14:25:58Z" level=error msg="error getting imageanalyzer config. will try again" error="unable to get JWT: unable to refresh JWT from crowdstrike: unable to complete request to crowdstrike Auth: Post \"/oauth2/token\": unsupported protocol scheme \"\"" mode=watcher
