Describe the problem

Spin up a secure cluster with cli parameters

• --certs-dir=
• --advertise-addr=
• --join=
• --cache=
• --max-sql-memory=

To Reproduce

goto https://[ip]:8080/_status/vars

Expected behavior

• Endpoint is only accessable via authentication like basic-auth
  or
• A cli parameter e.g. --activate-status-vars=true is needed to activate it
  or
• At least a warning on https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/stable/security-overview.html that this endpoint is exposed to the world and a http proxy to secure this endpoint is needed.
