Remediation

To remediate the “Cloudtasks Queue Max Burst Size Should Be Set” misconfiguration in GCP using GCP console, follow these steps:

  1. Open the GCP console and navigate to the Cloud Tasks page.
  2. Click on the name of the queue that needs to be remediated.
  3. Click on the “Edit queue” button.
  4. In the “Advanced” section, locate the “Max burst size” field.
  5. Set the value of “Max burst size” to a non-zero value that is appropriate for your use case.
  6. Click on the “Save” button to save the changes.

By setting the “Max burst size” to a non-zero value, you ensure that tasks are not enqueued faster than the queue can handle them. This helps prevent overloading the queue and ensures that tasks are processed in a timely manner.
