The --etcd-certfile and --etcd-keyfile arguments are not set appropriately
Description
etcd should be configured to make use of TLS encryption for client connections.
etcd is a highly-available key value store used by Kubernetes deployments for persistent storage of all of its REST API objects. These objects are sensitive in nature and should be protected by client authentication. This requires the API server to identify itself to the etcd server using a client certificate and key.
