System and Software Integrity
[ref]groupSystem and software integrity can be gained by installing antivirus, increasing
system encryption strength with FIPS, verifying installed software, enabling SELinux,
installing an Intrusion Prevention System, etc. However, installing or enabling integrity
checking tools cannot prevent intrusions, but they can detect that an intrusion
may have occurred. Requirements for integrity checking may be highly dependent on
the environment in which the system will be used. Snapshot-based approaches such
as AIDE may induce considerable overhead in the presence of frequent software updates. |

Software Integrity Checking
[ref]groupBoth the AIDE (Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment)
software and the RPM package management system provide
mechanisms for verifying the integrity of installed software.
AIDE uses snapshots of file metadata (such as hashes) and compares these
to current system files in order to detect changes.
The RPM package management system can conduct integrity
checks by comparing information in its metadata database with
files installed on the system. |
| contains 1 rule |
Verify Integrity with RPM
[ref]groupThe RPM package management system includes the ability
to verify the integrity of installed packages by comparing the
installed files with information about the files taken from the
package metadata stored in the RPM database. Although an attacker
could corrupt the RPM database (analogous to attacking the AIDE
database as described above), this check can still reveal
modification of important files. To list which files on the system differ from what is expected by the RPM database:
$ rpm -qVa
See the man page for rpm to see a complete explanation of each column. |
| contains 1 rule |
Verify File Hashes with RPM
[ref]ruleWithout cryptographic integrity protections, system executables and files can be altered by
unauthorized users without detection. The RPM package management system can check the hashes
of installed software packages, including many that are important to system security.
To verify that the cryptographic hash of system files and commands matches vendor values, run
the following command to list which files on the system have hashes that differ from what is
expected by the RPM database:
$ rpm -Va --noconfig | grep '^..5'
If the file was not expected to change, investigate the cause of the change using audit logs
or other means. The package can then be reinstalled to restore the file. Run the following
command to determine which package owns the file:
$ rpm -qf FILENAME
The package can be reinstalled from a zypper repository using the command:
$ sudo zypper reinstall PACKAGENAME
Alternatively, the package can be reinstalled from trusted media using the command:
$ sudo rpm -Uvh PACKAGENAME Warning:
This rule can take a long time to perform the check and might consume a considerable
amount of resources depending on the number of packages present on the system. It is not a
problem in most cases, but especially systems with a large number of installed packages
can be affected. Rationale:The hashes of important files like system executables should match the
information given by the RPM database. Executables with erroneous hashes could
be a sign of nefarious activity on the system. Identifiers:

System Cryptographic Policies
[ref]groupLinux has the capability to centrally configure cryptographic polices. The command
update-crypto-policies is used to set the policy applicable for the various
cryptographic back-ends, such as SSL/TLS libraries. The configured cryptographic
policies will be the default policy used by these backends unless the application
user configures them otherwise. When the system has been configured to use the
centralized cryptographic policies, the administrator is assured that any application
that utilizes the supported backends will follow a policy that adheres to the
configured profile.
Currently the supported backends are:
- GnuTLS library
- OpenSSL library
- NSS library
- OpenJDK
- Libkrb5
- BIND
- OpenSSH
Applications and languages which rely on any of these backends will follow the
system policies as well. Examples are apache httpd, nginx, php, and others. |
| contains 2 rules |
Configure System Cryptography Policy
[ref]ruleTo configure the system cryptography policy to use ciphers only from the DEFAULT
policy, run the following command:
$ sudo update-crypto-policies --set DEFAULT
The rule checks if settings for selected crypto policy are configured as expected. Configuration files in the /etc/crypto-policies/back-ends are either symlinks to correct files provided by Crypto-policies package or they are regular files in case crypto policy customizations are applied.
Crypto policies may be customized by crypto policy modules, in which case it is delimited from the base policy using a colon.Warning:
The system needs to be rebooted for these changes to take effect. Warning:
System Crypto Modules must be provided by a vendor that undergoes
FIPS-140 certifications.
FIPS-140 is applicable to all Federal agencies that use
cryptographic-based security systems to protect sensitive information
in computer and telecommunication systems (including voice systems) as
defined in Section 5131 of the Information Technology Management Reform
Act of 1996, Public Law 104-106. This standard shall be used in
designing and implementing cryptographic modules that Federal
departments and agencies operate or are operated for them under
contract. See https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/FIPS/NIST.FIPS.140-2.pdf
To meet this, the system has to have cryptographic software provided by
a vendor that has undergone this certification. This means providing
documentation, test results, design information, and independent third
party review by an accredited lab. While open source software is
capable of meeting this, it does not meet FIPS-140 unless the vendor
submits to this process. Rationale:Centralized cryptographic policies simplify applying secure ciphers across an operating system and
the applications that run on that operating system. Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms
undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. Identifiers:

Configure SSH to use System Crypto Policy
[ref]ruleCrypto Policies provide a centralized control over crypto algorithms usage of many packages.
SSH is supported by crypto policy, but the SSH configuration may be
set up to ignore it.
To check that Crypto Policies settings are configured correctly, ensure that
the CRYPTO_POLICY variable is either commented or not set at all
in the /etc/sysconfig/sshd. Rationale:Overriding the system crypto policy makes the behavior of the SSH service violate expectations,
and makes system configuration more fragmented. Identifiers:

Disk Partitioning
[ref]groupTo ensure separation and protection of data, there
are top-level system directories which should be placed on their
own physical partition or logical volume. The installer's default
partitioning scheme creates separate logical volumes for
/, /boot, and swap.
- If starting with any of the default layouts, check the box to
\"Review and modify partitioning.\" This allows for the easy creation
of additional logical volumes inside the volume group already
created, though it may require making
/'s logical volume smaller to
create space. In general, using logical volumes is preferable to
using partitions because they can be more easily adjusted
later. - If creating a custom layout, create the partitions mentioned in
the previous paragraph (which the installer will require anyway),
as well as separate ones described in the following sections.
If a system has already been installed, and the default
partitioning
scheme was used, it is possible but nontrivial to
modify it to create separate logical volumes for the directories
listed above. The Logical Volume Manager (LVM) makes this possible. |

Encrypt Partitions
[ref]ruleSUSE Linux Enterprise 16 natively supports partition encryption through the
Linux Unified Key Setup-on-disk-format (LUKS) technology. The easiest way to
encrypt a partition is during installation time.
For manual installations, select the Encrypt checkbox during
partition creation to encrypt the partition. When this
option is selected the system will prompt for a passphrase to use in
decrypting the partition. The passphrase will subsequently need to be entered manually
every time the system boots.
For automated/unattended installations, it is possible to use Kickstart by adding
the --encrypted and --passphrase= options to the definition of each partition to be
encrypted. For example, the following line would encrypt the root partition:
part / --fstype=ext4 --size=100 --onpart=hda1 --encrypted --passphrase=PASSPHRASE
Any PASSPHRASE is stored in the Kickstart in plaintext, and the Kickstart
must then be protected accordingly.
Omitting the --passphrase= option from the partition definition will cause the
installer to pause and interactively ask for the passphrase during installation.
By default, the Anaconda installer uses aes-xts-plain64 cipher
with a minimum 512 bit key size which should be compatible with FIPS enabled.
Detailed information on encrypting partitions using LUKS or LUKS ciphers can be found on
the SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 Documentation web site:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/security_hardening/encrypting-block-devices-using-luks_security-hardening
.Rationale:The risk of a system's physical compromise, particularly mobile systems such as
laptops, places its data at risk of compromise. Encrypting this data mitigates
the risk of its loss if the system is lost. Identifiers:

Ensure /var/log/audit Located On Separate Partition
[ref]ruleAudit logs are stored in the /var/log/audit directory.
Ensure that /var/log/audit has its own partition or logical
volume at installation time, or migrate it using LVM.
Make absolutely certain that it is large enough to store all
audit logs that will be created by the auditing daemon. Rationale:Placing /var/log/audit in its own partition
enables better separation between audit files
and other files, and helps ensure that
auditing cannot be halted due to the partition running out
of space. Identifiers:

GNOME Desktop Environment
[ref]groupGNOME is a graphical desktop environment bundled with many Linux distributions that
allow users to easily interact with the operating system graphically rather than
textually. The GNOME Graphical Display Manager (GDM) provides login, logout, and user
switching contexts as well as display server management.
GNOME is developed by the GNOME Project and is considered the default
Red Hat Graphical environment.

Require Credential Prompting for Remote Access in GNOME3
[ref]ruleBy default, GNOME does not require credentials when using Vino for
remote access. To configure the system to require remote credentials, add or set
authentication-methods to ['vnc'] in
/etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-security-settings. For example:
[org/gnome/Vino]
authentication-methods=['vnc']
Once the settings have been added, add a lock to
/etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks/00-security-settings-lock to prevent user modification.
For example:
/org/gnome/Vino/authentication-methods
After the settings have been set, run dconf update.Rationale:Username and password prompting is required for remote access. Otherwise, non-authorized
and nefarious users can access the system freely. Remediation Ansible snippet: (show)

Make sure that the dconf databases are up-to-date with regards to respective keyfiles
[ref]ruleBy default, DConf uses a binary database as a data backend.
The system-level database is compiled from keyfiles in the /etc/dconf/db/
directory by the dconf update command. More specifically, content present
in the following directories:
/etc/dconf/db/gdm.d
/etc/dconf/db/local.d Rationale:Unlike text-based keyfiles, the binary database is impossible to check by OVAL.
Therefore, in order to evaluate dconf configuration, both have to be true at the same time -
configuration files have to be compliant, and the database needs to be more recent than those keyfiles,
which gives confidence that it reflects them. Remediation Ansible snippet: (show)

Updating Software
[ref]groupThe zypper command line tool is used to install and
update software packages. The system also provides a graphical
software update tool in the System menu, in the Administration submenu,
called Software Update.
SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 systems contain an installed software catalog called
the RPM database, which records metadata of installed packages. Consistently using
zypper or the graphical Software Update for all software installation
allows for insight into the current inventory of installed software on the system.

Ensure gpgcheck Enabled In Main zypper Configuration
[ref]ruleThe gpgcheck option controls whether
RPM packages' signatures are always checked prior to installation.
To configure zypper to check package signatures before installing
them, ensure the following line appears in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf in
the [main] section:
gpgcheck=1 Rationale:Changes to any software components can have significant effects on the
overall security of the operating system. This requirement ensures the
software has not been tampered with and that it has been provided by a
trusted vendor.
Accordingly, patches, service packs, device drivers, or operating system
components must be signed with a certificate recognized and approved by the
organization.
Verifying the authenticity of the software prior to installation
validates the integrity of the patch or upgrade received from a vendor.
This ensures the software has not been tampered with and that it has been
provided by a trusted vendor. Self-signed certificates are disallowed by
this requirement. Certificates used to verify the software must be from an

Ensure gpgcheck Enabled for Local Packages
[ref]rulezypper should be configured to verify the signature(s) of local packages
prior to installation. To configure zypper to verify signatures of local
packages, set the localpkg_gpgcheck to 1 in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf. Rationale:Changes to any software components can have significant effects to the overall security
of the operating system. This requirement ensures the software has not been tampered and
has been provided by a trusted vendor.
Accordingly, patches, service packs, device drivers, or operating system components must

Ensure SUSE GPG Key Installed
[ref]ruleTo ensure the system can cryptographically verify base software packages
come from SUSE (and to connect to the SUSE to receive them),
the SUSE GPG key must properly be installed. To install the SUSE GPG
key, run:
$ sudo zypper install suse-build-key
If the system is not connected to the Internet or an RHN Satellite, then
install the SUSE GPG key from trusted media such as the SUSE
installation CD-ROM or DVD. Assuming the disc is mounted in
/media/cdrom, use the following command as the root user to import
it into the keyring:
$ sudo rpm --import /media/cdrom/content.key or
$ sudo rpm --import /media/cdrom/repodata/repomd.xml.key
Alternatively, the key may be pre-loaded during the SUSE installation. In
such cases, one can use the repository cache files to install the key,
for example by running the following command:
sudo rpm --import /var/cache/zypp/raw/Basesystem_Module_15_SP2_x86_64:SLE-Module-Basesystem15-SP2-Pool/repodata/repomd.xml.key Rationale:Changes to software components can have significant effects on the overall
security of the operating system. This requirement ensures the software has
not been tampered with and that it has been provided by a trusted vendor.
The SUSE GPG key is necessary to cryptographically verify packages are
from SUSE. Identifiers:

Account and Access Control
[ref]groupIn traditional Unix security, if an attacker gains
shell access to a certain login account, they can perform any action
or access any file to which that account has access. Therefore,
making it more difficult for unauthorized people to gain shell
access to accounts, particularly to privileged accounts, is a
necessary part of securing a system. This section introduces
mechanisms for restricting access to accounts under
SUSE Linux Enterprise 16. |
| contains 10 rules |
Protect Physical Console Access
[ref]groupIt is impossible to fully protect a system from an
attacker with physical access, so securing the space in which the
system is located should be considered a necessary step. However,
there are some steps which, if taken, make it more difficult for an
attacker to quickly or undetectably modify a system from its
console. |

Disable debug-shell SystemD Service
[ref]ruleSystemD's debug-shell service is intended to
diagnose SystemD related boot issues with various systemctl
commands. Once enabled and following a system reboot, the root shell
will be available on tty9 which is access by pressing
CTRL-ALT-F9. The debug-shell service should only be used
for SystemD related issues and should otherwise be disabled.
By default, the debug-shell SystemD service is already disabled.
The debug-shell service can be disabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl mask --now debug-shell.service Rationale:This prevents attackers with physical access from trivially bypassing security
on the machine through valid troubleshooting configurations and gaining root
access when the system is rebooted. Identifiers:

Disable Ctrl-Alt-Del Burst Action
[ref]ruleBy default, SystemD will reboot the system if the Ctrl-Alt-Del
key sequence is pressed Ctrl-Alt-Delete more than 7 times in 2 seconds.
To configure the system to ignore the CtrlAltDelBurstAction
setting, add or modify the following to /etc/systemd/system.conf:
CtrlAltDelBurstAction=none Warning:
Disabling the Ctrl-Alt-Del key sequence
in /etc/init/control-alt-delete.conf DOES NOT disable the Ctrl-Alt-Del
key sequence if running in runlevel 6 (e.g. in GNOME, KDE, etc.)! The
Ctrl-Alt-Del key sequence will only be disabled if running in
the non-graphical runlevel 3. Rationale:A locally logged-in user who presses Ctrl-Alt-Del, when at the console,
can reboot the system. If accidentally pressed, as could happen in
the case of mixed OS environment, this can create the risk of short-term
loss of availability of systems due to unintentional reboot. Identifiers:

Disable Ctrl-Alt-Del Reboot Activation
[ref]ruleBy default, SystemD will reboot the system if the Ctrl-Alt-Del
key sequence is pressed.
To configure the system to ignore the Ctrl-Alt-Del key sequence from the
command line instead of rebooting the system, do either of the following:
ln -sf /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/ctrl-alt-del.target
or
systemctl mask ctrl-alt-del.target
Do not simply delete the /usr/lib/systemd/system/ctrl-alt-del.service file,
as this file may be restored during future system updates.Rationale:A locally logged-in user who presses Ctrl-Alt-Del, when at the console,
can reboot the system. If accidentally pressed, as could happen in

Verify that Interactive Boot is Disabled
[ref]ruleSUSE Linux Enterprise 16 systems support an "interactive boot" option that can
be used to prevent services from being started. On a SUSE Linux Enterprise 16
system, interactive boot can be enabled by providing a 1,
yes, true, or on value to the
systemd.confirm_spawn kernel argument in /etc/default/grub.
Remove any instance of systemd.confirm_spawn=(1|yes|true|on) from
the kernel arguments in that file to disable interactive boot.
Recovery booting must also be disabled. Confirm that
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true is set in /etc/default/grub.
It is also required to change the runtime configuration, run:
/usr/bin/grub2-editenv - unset systemd.confirm_spawn>
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Rationale:Using interactive or recovery boot, the console user could disable auditing, firewalls,
or other services, weakening system security. Identifiers:

Require Authentication for Emergency Systemd Target
[ref]ruleEmergency mode is intended as a system recovery
method, providing a single user root access to the system
during a failed boot sequence.
By default, Emergency mode is protected by requiring a password and is set
in /usr/lib/systemd/system/emergency.service. Rationale:This prevents attackers with physical access from trivially bypassing security
on the machine and gaining root access. Such accesses are further prevented
by configuring the bootloader password. Identifiers:

Require Authentication for Single User Mode
[ref]ruleSingle-user mode is intended as a system recovery
method, providing a single user root access to the system by
providing a boot option at startup.
By default, single-user mode is protected by requiring a password and is set
in /usr/lib/systemd/system/rescue.service. Rationale:This prevents attackers with physical access from trivially bypassing security
on the machine and gaining root access. Such accesses are further prevented
by configuring the bootloader password. Identifiers:

Protect Accounts by Restricting Password-Based Login
[ref]groupConventionally, Unix shell accounts are accessed by
providing a username and password to a login program, which tests
these values for correctness using the /etc/passwd and
/etc/shadow files. Password-based login is vulnerable to
guessing of weak passwords, and to sniffing and man-in-the-middle
attacks against passwords entered over a network or at an insecure
console. Therefore, mechanisms for accessing accounts by entering
usernames and passwords should be restricted to those which are
operationally necessary. |
| contains 4 rules |
Verify Proper Storage and Existence of Password
Hashes
[ref]groupBy default, password hashes for local accounts are stored
in the second field (colon-separated) in
/etc/shadow. This file should be readable only by
processes running with root credentials, preventing users from
casually accessing others' password hashes and attempting
to crack them.
However, it remains possible to misconfigure the system
and store password hashes
in world-readable files such as /etc/passwd, or
to even store passwords themselves in plaintext on the system.
Using system-provided tools for password change/creation
should allow administrators to avoid such misconfiguration. |
| contains 1 rule |
Prevent Login to Accounts With Empty Password
[ref]ruleIf an account is configured for password authentication
but does not have an assigned password, it may be possible to log
into the account without authentication. Remove any instances of the
nullok in
password authentication configurations in /etc/pam.d/
to prevent logins with empty passwords. Warning:
If the system relies on authselect tool to manage PAM settings, the remediation
will also use authselect tool. However, if any manual modification was made in
PAM files, the authselect integrity check will fail and the remediation will be
aborted in order to preserve intentional changes. In this case, an informative message will
be shown in the remediation report.
Note that this rule is not applicable for systems running within a
container. Having user with empty password within a container is not
considered a risk, because it should not be possible to directly login into
a container anyway. Rationale:If an account has an empty password, anyone could log in and
run commands with the privileges of that account. Accounts with
empty passwords should never be used in operational environments. Identifiers:

Restrict Root Logins
[ref]groupDirect root logins should be allowed only for emergency use.
In normal situations, the administrator should access the system
via a unique unprivileged account, and then use su or sudo to execute
privileged commands. Discouraging administrators from accessing the
root account directly ensures an audit trail in organizations with
multiple administrators. Locking down the channels through which
root can connect directly also reduces opportunities for
password-guessing against the root account. The login program
uses the file /etc/securetty to determine which interfaces
should allow root logins.
The virtual devices /dev/console
and /dev/tty* represent the system consoles (accessible via
the Ctrl-Alt-F1 through Ctrl-Alt-F6 keyboard sequences on a default
installation). The default securetty file also contains /dev/vc/*.
These are likely to be deprecated in most environments, but may be retained
for compatibility. Root should also be prohibited from connecting
via network protocols. Other sections of this document
include guidance describing how to prevent root from logging in via SSH. |
| contains 3 rules |
Direct root Logins Not Allowed
[ref]ruleTo further limit access to the root account, administrators
can disable root logins at the console by editing the /etc/securetty file.
This file lists all devices the root user is allowed to login to. If the file does
not exist at all, the root user can login through any communication device on the
system, whether via the console or via a raw network interface. This is dangerous
as user can login to the system as root via Telnet, which sends the password in
plain text over the network. By default, SUSE Linux Enterprise 16's
/etc/securetty file only allows the root user to login at the console
physically attached to the system. To prevent root from logging in, remove the
contents of this file. To prevent direct root logins, remove the contents of this
file by typing the following command:
$ sudo echo > /etc/securetty
Warning:
This rule only checks the /etc/securetty file existence and its content.
If you need to restrict user access using the /etc/securetty file, make sure
the pam_securetty.so PAM module is properly enabled in relevant PAM files. Rationale:Disabling direct root logins ensures proper accountability and multifactor
authentication to privileged accounts. Users will first login, then escalate
to privileged (root) access via su / sudo. This is required for FISMA Low
and FISMA Moderate systems. Identifiers:

GRUB2 bootloader configuration
[ref]groupDuring the boot process, the boot loader is
responsible for starting the execution of the kernel and passing
options to it. The boot loader allows for the selection of
different kernels - possibly on different partitions or media.
The default SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 boot loader for x86 systems is called GRUB2.
Options it can pass to the kernel include single-user mode, which
provides root access without any authentication, and the ability to
disable SELinux. To prevent local users from modifying the boot
parameters and endangering security, protect the boot loader configuration
with a password and ensure its configuration file's permissions
are set properly. |

Set Boot Loader Password in grub2
[ref]ruleThe grub2 boot loader should have a superuser account and password
protection enabled to protect boot-time settings.
Since plaintext passwords are a security risk, generate a hash for the password
by running the following command:
# grub2-setpassword
When prompted, enter the password that was selected.
Warning:
To prevent hard-coded passwords, automatic remediation of this control is not available. Remediation
must be automated as a component of machine provisioning, or followed manually as outlined above.
Also, do NOT manually add the superuser account and password to the
grub.cfg file as the grub2-mkconfig command overwrites this file. Rationale:Password protection on the boot loader configuration ensures
users with physical access cannot trivially alter
important bootloader settings. These include which kernel to use,
and whether to enter single-user mode. Identifiers:

Configure Syslog
[ref]groupThe syslog service has been the default Unix logging mechanism for
many years. It has a number of downsides, including inconsistent log format,
lack of authentication for received messages, and lack of authentication,
encryption, or reliable transport for messages sent over a network. However,
due to its long history, syslog is a de facto standard which is supported by
almost all Unix applications.
In SUSE Linux Enterprise 16, rsyslog has replaced ksyslogd as the
syslog daemon of choice, and it includes some additional security features
such as reliable, connection-oriented (i.e. TCP) transmission of logs, the
option to log to database formats, and the encryption of log data en route to
a central logging server.
This section discusses how to configure rsyslog for
best effect, and how to use tools provided with the system to maintain and
monitor logs. |
| contains 3 rules |
Rsyslog Logs Sent To Remote Host
[ref]groupIf system logs are to be useful in detecting malicious
activities, it is necessary to send logs to a remote server. An
intruder who has compromised the root account on a system may
delete the log entries which indicate that the system was attacked
before they are seen by an administrator.
However, it is recommended that logs be stored on the local
host in addition to being sent to the loghost, especially if
rsyslog has been configured to use the UDP protocol to send
messages over a network. UDP does not guarantee reliable delivery,
and moderately busy sites will lose log messages occasionally,
especially in periods of high traffic which may be the result of an
attack. In addition, remote rsyslog messages are not
authenticated in any way by default, so it is easy for an attacker to
introduce spurious messages to the central log server. Also, some
problems cause loss of network connectivity, which will prevent the
sending of messages to the central server. For all of these reasons, it is
better to store log messages both centrally and on each host, so
that they can be correlated if necessary. |
| contains 1 rule |
Ensure Logs Sent To Remote Host
[ref]ruleTo configure rsyslog to send logs to a remote log server,
open /etc/rsyslog.conf and read and understand the last section of the file,
which describes the multiple directives necessary to activate remote
logging.
Along with these other directives, the system can be configured
to forward its logs to a particular log server by
adding or correcting one of the following lines,
substituting logcollector appropriately.
The choice of protocol depends on the environment of the system;
although TCP and RELP provide more reliable message delivery,
they may not be supported in all environments.
To use UDP for log message delivery:
*.* @logcollector
Or in RainerScript:
*.* action(type="omfwd" ... target="logcollector" protocol="udp")
To use TCP for log message delivery:
*.* @@logcollector
Or in RainerScript:
*.* action(type="omfwd" ... target="logcollector" protocol="tcp")
To use RELP for log message delivery:
*.* :omrelp:logcollector
Or in RainerScript:
*.* action(type="omfwd" ... target="logcollector" protocol="relp")
There must be a resolvable DNS CNAME or Alias record set to "logcollector" for logs to be sent correctly to the centralized logging utility.Warning:
It is important to configure queues in case the client is sending log
messages to a remote server. If queues are not configured,
the system will stop functioning when the connection
to the remote server is not available. Please consult Rsyslog
documentation for more information about configuration of queues. The
example configuration which should go into /etc/rsyslog.conf
can look like the following lines:
$ActionQueueType LinkedList
$ActionQueueFileName queuefilename
$ActionQueueMaxDiskSpace 1g
$ActionQueueSaveOnShutdown on
$ActionResumeRetryCount -1
Or if using Rainer Script syntax, it could be:
*.* action(type="omfwd" queue.type="linkedlist" queue.filename="example_fwd" action.resumeRetryCount="-1" queue.saveOnShutdown="on" target="example.com" port="30514" protocol="tcp") Rationale:A log server (loghost) receives syslog messages from one or more
systems. This data can be used as an additional log source in the event a
system is compromised and its local logs are suspect. Forwarding log messages
to a remote loghost also provides system administrators with a centralized
place to view the status of multiple hosts within the enterprise. Identifiers:

Network Configuration and Firewalls
[ref]groupMost systems must be connected to a network of some
sort, and this brings with it the substantial risk of network
attack. This section discusses the security impact of decisions
about networking which must be made when configuring a system.
This section also discusses firewalls, network access
controls, and other network security frameworks, which allow
system-level rules to be written that can limit an attackers' ability
to connect to your system. These rules can specify that network
traffic should be allowed or denied from certain IP addresses,
hosts, and networks. The rules can also specify which of the
system's network services are available to particular hosts or
networks. |

Verify Any Configured IPSec Tunnel Connections
[ref]ruleLibreswan provides an implementation of IPsec
and IKE, which permits the creation of secure tunnels over
untrusted networks. As such, IPsec can be used to circumvent certain
network requirements such as filtering. Verify that if any IPsec connection
(conn) configured in /etc/swanctl/swanctl.conf and /etc/swanctl/conf.d/
exists is an approved organizational connection. Warning:
Automatic remediation of this control is not available due to the unique
requirements of each system. Rationale:IP tunneling mechanisms can be used to bypass network filtering. Identifiers:

File Permissions and Masks
[ref]groupTraditional Unix security relies heavily on file and
directory permissions to prevent unauthorized users from reading or
modifying files to which they should not have access.
Several of the commands in this section search filesystems
for files or directories with certain characteristics, and are
intended to be run on every local partition on a given system.
When the variable PART appears in one of the commands below,
it means that the command is intended to be run repeatedly, with the
name of each local partition substituted for PART in turn.
The following command prints a list of all xfs partitions on the local
system, which is the default filesystem for SUSE Linux Enterprise 16
installations:
$ mount -t xfs | awk '{print $3}'
For any systems that use a different
local filesystem type, modify this command as appropriate. |

Restrict Dynamic Mounting and Unmounting of
Filesystems
[ref]groupLinux includes a number of facilities for the automated addition
and removal of filesystems on a running system. These facilities may be
necessary in many environments, but this capability also carries some risk -- whether direct
risk from allowing users to introduce arbitrary filesystems,
or risk that software flaws in the automated mount facility itself could
allow an attacker to compromise the system.
This command can be used to list the types of filesystems that are
available to the currently executing kernel:
$ find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs -type f -name '*.ko'
If these filesystems are not required then they can be explicitly disabled
in a configuratio file in /etc/modprobe.d. |
| contains 2 rules |
Disable the Automounter
[ref]ruleThe autofs daemon mounts and unmounts filesystems, such as user
home directories shared via NFS, on demand. In addition, autofs can be used to handle
removable media, and the default configuration provides the cdrom device as /misc/cd.
However, this method of providing access to removable media is not common, so autofs
can almost always be disabled if NFS is not in use. Even if NFS is required, it may be
possible to configure filesystem mounts statically by editing /etc/fstab
rather than relying on the automounter.
The autofs service can be disabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl mask --now autofs.service Rationale:Disabling the automounter permits the administrator to
statically control filesystem mounting through /etc/fstab.
Additionally, automatically mounting filesystems permits easy introduction of
unknown devices, thereby facilitating malicious activity. Identifiers:

Disable Modprobe Loading of USB Storage Driver
[ref]ruleTo prevent USB storage devices from being used, configure the kernel module loading system
to prevent automatic loading of the USB storage driver.
To configure the system to prevent the usb-storage
kernel module from being loaded, add the following line to the file /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf:
install usb-storage /bin/false
This entry will cause a non-zero return value during a usb-storage module installation
and additionally convey the meaning of the entry to the user in form of an error message.
If you would like to omit a non-zero return value and an error message, you may want to add a different line instead
(both /bin/true and /bin/false are allowed by OVAL and will be accepted by the scan):
install usb-storage /bin/true
This will prevent the modprobe program from loading the usb-storage
module, but will not prevent an administrator (or another program) from using the
insmod program to load the module manually.Rationale:USB storage devices such as thumb drives can be used to introduce
malicious software. Identifiers:

Restrict Programs from Dangerous Execution Patterns
[ref]groupThe recommendations in this section are designed to
ensure that the system's features to protect against potentially
dangerous program execution are activated.
These protections are applied at the system initialization or
kernel level, and defend against certain types of badly-configured
or compromised programs. |
| contains 4 rules |
Disable Core Dumps
[ref]groupA core dump file is the memory image of an executable
program when it was terminated by the operating system due to
errant behavior. In most cases, only software developers
legitimately need to access these files. The core dump files may
also contain sensitive information, or unnecessarily occupy large
amounts of disk space.
Once a hard limit is set in /etc/security/limits.conf, or
to a file within the /etc/security/limits.d/ directory, a
user cannot increase that limit within his or her own session. If access
to core dumps is required, consider restricting them to only
certain users or groups. See the limits.conf man page for more
information.
The core dumps of setuid programs are further protected. The
sysctl variable fs.suid_dumpable controls whether
the kernel allows core dumps from these programs at all. The default
value of 0 is recommended. |
| contains 1 rule |
Disable Core Dumps for SUID programs
[ref]ruleTo set the runtime status of the fs.suid_dumpable kernel parameter, run the following command: $ sudo sysctl -w fs.suid_dumpable=0

Enable ExecShield
[ref]groupExecShield describes kernel features that provide
protection against exploitation of memory corruption errors such as buffer
overflows. These features include random placement of the stack and other
memory regions, prevention of execution in memory that should only hold data,
and special handling of text buffers. These protections are enabled by default
on 32-bit systems and controlled through sysctl variables
kernel.exec-shield and kernel.randomize_va_space. On the latest
64-bit systems, kernel.exec-shield cannot be enabled or disabled with
sysctl. |
| contains 2 rules |
Enable ExecShield via sysctl
[ref]ruleBy default on SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 64-bit systems, ExecShield is
enabled and can only be disabled if the hardware does not support
ExecShield or is disabled in /etc/default/grub.
For SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 32-bit systems, sysctl can be used to enable
ExecShield. Rationale:ExecShield uses the segmentation feature on all x86 systems to prevent
execution in memory higher than a certain address. It writes an address as
a limit in the code segment descriptor, to control where code can be
executed, on a per-process basis. When the kernel places a process's memory
regions such as the stack and heap higher than this address, the hardware
prevents execution in that address range. This is enabled by default on the
latest Red Hat and Fedora systems if supported by the hardware. Identifiers:

Enable Randomized Layout of Virtual Address Space
[ref]ruleTo set the runtime status of the kernel.randomize_va_space kernel parameter, run the following command: $ sudo sysctl -w kernel.randomize_va_space=2
To make sure that the setting is persistent, add the following line to a file in the directory /etc/sysctl.d: kernel.randomize_va_space = 2 Rationale:Address space layout randomization (ASLR) makes it more difficult for an
attacker to predict the location of attack code they have introduced into a
process's address space during an attempt at exploitation. Additionally,
ASLR makes it more difficult for an attacker to know the location of
existing code in order to re-purpose it using return oriented programming
(ROP) techniques. Identifiers:

SELinux
[ref]groupSELinux is a feature of the Linux kernel which can be
used to guard against misconfigured or compromised programs.
SELinux enforces the idea that programs should be limited in what
files they can access and what actions they can take.
The default SELinux policy, as configured on SUSE Linux Enterprise 16, has been
sufficiently developed and debugged that it should be usable on
almost any system with minimal configuration and a small
amount of system administrator training. This policy prevents
system services - including most of the common network-visible
services such as mail servers, FTP servers, and DNS servers - from
accessing files which those services have no valid reason to
access. This action alone prevents a huge amount of possible damage
from network attacks against services, from trojaned software, and
so forth.
This guide recommends that SELinux be enabled using the
default (targeted) policy on every SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 system, unless that
system has unusual requirements which make a stronger policy
appropriate. |

Ensure SELinux Not Disabled in /etc/default/grub
[ref]ruleSELinux can be disabled at boot time by an argument in
/etc/default/grub.
Remove any instances of selinux=0 from the kernel arguments in that
file to prevent SELinux from being disabled at boot. Rationale:Disabling a major host protection feature, such as SELinux, at boot time prevents
it from confining system services at boot time. Further, it increases
the chances that it will remain off during system operation. Identifiers:

Ensure No Daemons are Unconfined by SELinux
[ref]ruleDaemons for which the SELinux policy does not contain rules will inherit the
context of the parent process. Because daemons are launched during
startup and descend from the init process, they inherit the unconfined_service_t context.
To check for unconfined daemons, run the following command:
$ sudo ps -eZ | grep "unconfined_service_t"
It should produce no output in a well-configured system.Warning:
Automatic remediation of this control is not available. Remediation
can be achieved by amending SELinux policy or stopping the unconfined
daemons as outlined above. Rationale:Daemons which run with the unconfined_service_t context may cause AVC denials,
or allow privileges that the daemon does not require. Identifiers:

Configure SELinux Policy
[ref]ruleThe SELinux targeted policy is appropriate for
general-purpose desktops and servers, as well as systems in many other roles.
To configure the system to use this policy, add or correct the following line
in /etc/selinux/config:
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
Other policies, such as mls, provide additional security labeling
and greater confinement but are not compatible with many general-purpose
use cases.Rationale:Setting the SELinux policy to targeted or a more specialized policy
ensures the system will confine processes that are likely to be
targeted for exploitation, such as network or system services.
Note: During the development or debugging of SELinux modules, it is common to
temporarily place non-production systems in permissive mode. In such
temporary cases, SELinux policies should be developed, and once work
is completed, the system should be reconfigured to
targeted. Identifiers:

Services
[ref]groupThe best protection against vulnerable software is running less software. This section describes how to review
the software which SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 installs on a system and disable software which is not needed. It
then enumerates the software packages installed on a default SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 system and provides guidance about which
ones can be safely disabled.
SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 provides a convenient minimal install option that essentially installs the bare necessities for a functional
system. When building SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 systems, it is highly recommended to select the minimal packages and then build up
the system from there. |
| contains 24 rules |
Base Services
[ref]groupThis section addresses the base services that are installed on a
SUSE Linux Enterprise 16 default installation which are not covered in other
sections. Some of these services listen on the network and
should be treated with particular discretion. Other services are local
system utilities that may or may not be extraneous. In general, system services
should be disabled if not required. |

Disable KDump Kernel Crash Analyzer (kdump)
[ref]ruleThe kdump service provides a kernel crash dump analyzer. It uses the kexec
system call to boot a secondary kernel ("capture" kernel) following a system
crash, which can load information from the crashed kernel for analysis.
The kdump service can be disabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl mask --now kdump.service Rationale:Kernel core dumps may contain the full contents of system memory at the
time of the crash. Kernel core dumps consume a considerable amount of disk
space and may result in denial of service by exhausting the available space
on the target file system partition. Unless the system is used for kernel
development or testing, there is little need to run the kdump service. Identifiers:

circumstances under which it is possible to disable NFS and its dependencies,
and then details steps which should be taken to secure
NFS's configuration. This section is relevant to systems operating as NFS
clients, as well as to those operating as NFS servers. |

Use Kerberos Security on All Exports
[ref]ruleUsing Kerberos on all exported mounts prevents a malicious client or user from
impersonating a system user. To cryptography authenticate users to the NFS server,
add sec=krb5:krb5i:krb5p to each export in /etc/exports. Rationale:When an NFS server is configured to use AUTH_SYS a selected userid and groupid are used to handle
requests from the remote user. The userid and groupid could mistakenly or maliciously be set
incorrectly. The AUTH_GSS method of authentication uses certificates on the server and client
systems to more securely authenticate the remote mount request. Identifiers:

Obsolete Services
[ref]groupThis section discusses a number of network-visible
services which have historically caused problems for system
security, and for which disabling or severely limiting the service
has been the best available guidance for some time. As a result of
this, many of these services are not installed as part of SUSE Linux Enterprise 16
by default.
Organizations which are running these services should
switch to more secure equivalents as soon as possible.
If it remains absolutely necessary to run one of
these services for legacy reasons, care should be taken to restrict
the service as much as possible, for instance by configuring host
firewall software such as iptables to restrict access to the
vulnerable service to only those remote hosts which have a known
need to use it. |

Xinetd
[ref]groupThe xinetd service acts as a dedicated listener for some
network services (mostly, obsolete ones) and can be used to provide access
controls and perform some logging. It has been largely obsoleted by other
features, and it is not installed by default. The older Inetd service
is not even available as part of SUSE Linux Enterprise 16. |

Uninstall tcpd Package
[ref]ruleThe tcpd package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo zypper remove tcpd Rationale:Administrators can use TCP wrapper library and daemon for host
control over network services. In these implementations,
xinetd runs tcpd program, which first looks
at the incoming connection as well as the access control lists
in the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files.
Removing the xinetd package decreases the risk of the
xinetd service's accidental (or intentional) activation. The
removal of tcpd package will support this protective
measure in addition. Identifiers:

Uninstall telnet-server Package
[ref]ruleThe telnet-server package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo zypper remove telnet-server Rationale:It is detrimental for operating systems to provide, or install by default,
functionality exceeding requirements or mission objectives. These
unnecessary capabilities are often overlooked and therefore may remain
insecure. They increase the risk to the platform by providing additional
attack vectors.
The telnet service provides an unencrypted remote access service which does
not provide for the confidentiality and integrity of user passwords or the
remote session. If a privileged user were to login using this service, the
privileged user password could be compromised.
Removing the telnet-server package decreases the risk of the
telnet service's accidental (or intentional) activation. Identifiers:

Disable telnet Service
[ref]ruleMake sure that the activation of the telnet service on system boot is disabled.
The telnet socket can be disabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl mask --now telnet.socket Warning:
If the system relies on xinetd to manage telnet sessions, ensure the telnet service
is disabled by the following line: disable = yes. Note that the xinetd file for
telnet is not created automatically, therefore it might have different names. Rationale:The telnet protocol uses unencrypted network communication, which means that data from the
login session, including passwords and all other information transmitted during the session,
can be stolen by eavesdroppers on the network. The telnet protocol is also subject to
man-in-the-middle attacks. Identifiers:

SSH Server
[ref]groupThe SSH protocol is recommended for remote login and
remote file transfer. SSH provides confidentiality and integrity
for data exchanged between two systems, as well as server
authentication, through the use of public key cryptography. The
implementation included with the system is called OpenSSH, and more
detailed documentation is available from its website,
https://www.openssh.com.
Its server program is called sshd and provided by the RPM package
openssh-server. |
| contains 15 rules |
Configure OpenSSH Server if Necessary
[ref]groupIf the system needs to act as an SSH server, then
certain changes should be made to the OpenSSH daemon configuration
file /etc/ssh/sshd_config. The following recommendations can be
applied to this file. See the sshd_config(5) man page for more
detailed information. |

Set SSH Client Alive Count Max to zero
[ref]ruleThe SSH server sends at most ClientAliveCountMax messages
during a SSH session and waits for a response from the SSH client.
The option ClientAliveInterval configures timeout after
each ClientAliveCountMax message. If the SSH server does not
receive a response from the client, then the connection is considered unresponsive
and terminated.
To ensure the SSH timeout occurs precisely when the
ClientAliveInterval is set, set the ClientAliveCountMax to
value of 0 in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf: Rationale:This ensures a user login will be terminated as soon as the ClientAliveInterval
is reached. Identifiers:

Set SSH Client Alive Count Max
[ref]ruleThe SSH server sends at most ClientAliveCountMax messages
during a SSH session and waits for a response from the SSH client.
The option ClientAliveInterval configures timeout after
each ClientAliveCountMax message. If the SSH server does not
receive a response from the client, then the connection is considered unresponsive
and terminated.
For SSH earlier than v8.2, a ClientAliveCountMax value of 0
causes a timeout precisely when the ClientAliveInterval is set.
Starting with v8.2, a value of 0 disables the timeout functionality
completely. If the option is set to a number greater than 0, then
the session will be disconnected after
ClientAliveInterval * ClientAliveCountMax seconds without receiving
a keep alive message. Rationale:This ensures a user login will be terminated as soon as the ClientAliveInterval
is reached. Identifiers:

Disable Host-Based Authentication
[ref]ruleSSH's cryptographic host-based authentication is
more secure than .rhosts authentication. However, it is
not recommended that hosts unilaterally trust one another, even
within an organization.
The default SSH configuration disables host-based authentication. The appropriate
configuration is used if no value is set for HostbasedAuthentication.
To explicitly disable host-based authentication, add or correct the
following line in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
HostbasedAuthentication no Rationale:SSH trust relationships mean a compromise on one host
can allow an attacker to move trivially to other hosts. Identifiers:

Allow Only SSH Protocol 2
[ref]ruleOnly SSH protocol version 2 connections should be
permitted. The default setting in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config is correct, and can be
verified by ensuring that the following
line appears:
Protocol 2 Warning:
As of openssh-server version 7.4 and above, the only protocol
supported is version 2, and line Protocol 2 in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config is not necessary. Rationale:SSH protocol version 1 is an insecure implementation of the SSH protocol and
has many well-known vulnerability exploits. Exploits of the SSH daemon could provide
immediate root access to the system. Identifiers:

Disable Compression Or Set Compression to delayed
[ref]ruleCompression is useful for slow network connections over long
distances but can cause performance issues on local LANs. If use of compression
is required, it should be enabled only after a user has authenticated; otherwise,
it should be disabled. To disable compression or delay compression until after
a user has successfully authenticated, add or correct the following line in the
/etc/ssh/sshd_config file:
Compression no Rationale:If compression is allowed in an SSH connection prior to authentication,
vulnerabilities in the compression software could result in compromise of the
system from an unauthenticated connection, potentially with root privileges. Identifiers:

Disable SSH Access via Empty Passwords
[ref]ruleDisallow SSH login with empty passwords.
The default SSH configuration disables logins with empty passwords. The appropriate
configuration is used if no value is set for PermitEmptyPasswords.
To explicitly disallow SSH login from accounts with empty passwords,
add or correct the following line in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
PermitEmptyPasswords no
Any accounts with empty passwords should be disabled immediately, and PAM configuration
should prevent users from being able to assign themselves empty passwords.Rationale:Configuring this setting for the SSH daemon provides additional assurance
that remote login via SSH will require a password, even in the event of
misconfiguration elsewhere. Identifiers:

Disable Kerberos Authentication
[ref]ruleUnless needed, SSH should not permit extraneous or unnecessary
authentication mechanisms like Kerberos.
The default SSH configuration disallows authentication validation through Kerberos.
The appropriate configuration is used if no value is set for KerberosAuthentication.
To explicitly disable Kerberos authentication, add or correct the following line in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
KerberosAuthentication no Rationale:Kerberos authentication for SSH is often implemented using GSSAPI. If Kerberos
is enabled through SSH, the SSH daemon provides a means of access to the
system's Kerberos implementation.
Configuring these settings for the SSH daemon provides additional assurance that remote logon via SSH will not use unused methods of authentication, even in the event of misconfiguration elsewhere. Identifiers:

Disable SSH Root Login
[ref]ruleThe root user should never be allowed to login to a
system directly over a network.
To disable root login via SSH, add or correct the following line in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
PermitRootLogin no Rationale:Even though the communications channel may be encrypted, an additional layer of
security is gained by extending the policy of not logging directly on as root.
In addition, logging in with a user-specific account provides individual
accountability of actions performed on the system and also helps to minimize
direct attack attempts on root's password. Identifiers:

Disable SSH Support for User Known Hosts
[ref]ruleSSH can allow system users to connect to systems if a cache of the remote
systems public keys is available. This should be disabled.
To ensure this behavior is disabled, add or correct the following line in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
IgnoreUserKnownHosts yes Rationale:Configuring this setting for the SSH daemon provides additional
assurance that remote login via SSH will require a password, even
in the event of misconfiguration elsewhere. Identifiers:

Do Not Allow SSH Environment Options
[ref]ruleEnsure that users are not able to override environment variables of the SSH daemon.
The default SSH configuration disables environment processing. The appropriate
configuration is used if no value is set for PermitUserEnvironment.
To explicitly disable Environment options, add or correct the following
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
PermitUserEnvironment no Rationale:SSH environment options potentially allow users to bypass
access restriction in some configurations. Identifiers:

Enable Use of Strict Mode Checking
[ref]ruleSSHs StrictModes option checks file and ownership permissions in
the user's home directory .ssh folder before accepting login. If world-
writable permissions are found, logon is rejected.
The default SSH configuration has StrictModes enabled. The appropriate
configuration is used if no value is set for StrictModes.
To explicitly enable StrictModes in SSH, add or correct the following line in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/00-complianceascode-hardening.conf:
StrictModes yes Rationale:If other users have access to modify user-specific SSH configuration files, they
may be able to log into the system as another user. Identifiers:

Distribute the SSH Server configuration to multiple files in a config directory.
[ref]ruleMake sure to have the Include /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/*.conf line in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file.
Ideally, don't have any active configuration directives in that file, and distribute the service configuration
to several files in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d directory. Rationale:This form of distributed configuration is considered as a good practice, and as other sshd rules assume that directives in files in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d config directory are effective, there has to be a rule that ensures this.
Aside from that, having multiple configuration files makes the SSH Server configuration changes easier to partition according to the reason that they were introduced, and therefore it should help to perform merges of hardening updates. Remediation Shell script: (show)

System Accounting with auditd
[ref]groupThe audit service provides substantial capabilities
for recording system activities. By default, the service audits about
SELinux AVC denials and certain types of security-relevant events
such as system logins, account modifications, and authentication
events performed by programs such as sudo.
Under its default configuration, auditd has modest disk space
requirements, and should not noticeably impact system performance.
NOTE: The Linux Audit daemon auditd can be configured to use
the augenrules program to read audit rules files (*.rules)
located in /etc/audit/rules.d location and compile them to create
the resulting form of the /etc/audit/audit.rules configuration file
during the daemon startup (default configuration). Alternatively, the auditd
daemon can use the auditctl utility to read audit rules from the
/etc/audit/audit.rules configuration file during daemon startup,
and load them into the kernel. The expected behavior is configured via the
appropriate ExecStartPost directive setting in the
/usr/lib/systemd/system/auditd.service configuration file.
To instruct the auditd daemon to use the augenrules program
to read audit rules (default configuration), use the following setting:
ExecStartPost=-/sbin/augenrules --load
in the /usr/lib/systemd/system/auditd.service configuration file.
In order to instruct the auditd daemon to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules, use the following setting:
ExecStartPost=-/sbin/auditctl -R /etc/audit/audit.rules
in the /usr/lib/systemd/system/auditd.service configuration file.
Refer to [Service] section of the /usr/lib/systemd/system/auditd.service
configuration file for further details.
Government networks often have substantial auditing
requirements and auditd can be configured to meet these
requirements.
Examining some example audit records demonstrates how the Linux audit system
satisfies common requirements.
The following example from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Documentation available at
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/selinux_users_and_administrators_guide/index#sect-Security-Enhanced_Linux-Fixing_Problems-Raw_Audit_Messages
shows the substantial amount of information captured in a
two typical "raw" audit messages, followed by a breakdown of the most important
fields. In this example the message is SELinux-related and reports an AVC
denial (and the associated system call) that occurred when the Apache HTTP
Server attempted to access the /var/www/html/file1 file (labeled with
the samba_share_t type):
type=AVC msg=audit(1226874073.147:96): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=2465 comm="httpd"
path="/var/www/html/file1" dev=dm-0 ino=284133 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0
tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:samba_share_t:s0 tclass=file
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1226874073.147:96): arch=40000003 syscall=196 success=no exit=-13
a0=b98df198 a1=bfec85dc a2=54dff4 a3=2008171 items=0 ppid=2463 pid=2465 auid=502 uid=48
gid=48 euid=48 suid=48 fsuid=48 egid=48 sgid=48 fsgid=48 tty=(none) ses=6 comm="httpd"
exe="/usr/sbin/httpd" subj=unconfined_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 key=(null)
msg=audit(1226874073.147:96)- The number in parentheses is the unformatted time stamp (Epoch time)
for the event, which can be converted to standard time by using the
date command.
{ getattr }- The item in braces indicates the permission that was denied.
getattr
indicates the source process was trying to read the target file's status information.
This occurs before reading files. This action is denied due to the file being
accessed having the wrong label. Commonly seen permissions include getattr,
read, and write.
comm="httpd"- The executable that launched the process. The full path of the executable is
found in the
exe= section of the system call (SYSCALL) message,
which in this case, is exe="/usr/sbin/httpd".
path="/var/www/html/file1"- The path to the object (target) the process attempted to access.
scontext="unconfined_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0"- The SELinux context of the process that attempted the denied action. In
this case, it is the SELinux context of the Apache HTTP Server, which is running
in the
httpd_t domain.
tcontext="unconfined_u:object_r:samba_share_t:s0"- The SELinux context of the object (target) the process attempted to access.
In this case, it is the SELinux context of
file1. Note: the samba_share_t
type is not accessible to processes running in the httpd_t domain.
- From the system call (
SYSCALL) message, two items are of interest:
success=no: indicates whether the denial (AVC) was enforced or not.
success=no indicates the system call was not successful (SELinux denied
access). success=yes indicates the system call was successful - this can
be seen for permissive domains or unconfined domains, such as initrc_t
and kernel_t.
exe="/usr/sbin/httpd": the full path to the executable that launched
the process, which in this case, is exe="/usr/sbin/httpd".

Configure auditd Rules for Comprehensive Auditing
[ref]groupThe auditd program can perform comprehensive
monitoring of system activity. This section describes recommended
configuration settings for comprehensive auditing, but a full
description of the auditing system's capabilities is beyond the
scope of this guide. The mailing list linux-audit@redhat.com exists
to facilitate community discussion of the auditing system.
The audit subsystem supports extensive collection of events, including:
- Tracing of arbitrary system calls (identified by name or number)
on entry or exit.
- Filtering by PID, UID, call success, system call argument (with
some limitations), etc.
- Monitoring of specific files for modifications to the file's
contents or metadata.
Auditing rules at startup are controlled by the file /etc/audit/audit.rules.
Add rules to it to meet the auditing requirements for your organization.
Each line in /etc/audit/audit.rules represents a series of arguments
that can be passed to auditctl and can be individually tested
during runtime. See documentation in /usr/share/doc/audit-VERSION and
in the related man pages for more details.
If copying any example audit rulesets from /usr/share/doc/audit-VERSION,
be sure to comment out the
lines containing arch= which are not appropriate for your system's
architecture. Then review and understand the following rules,
ensuring rules are activated as needed for the appropriate
architecture.
After reviewing all the rules, reading the following sections, and
editing as needed, the new rules can be activated as follows:
$ sudo service auditd restart |
| contains 80 rules |
Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls
[ref]groupAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. Note that the "-F arch=b32" lines should be
present even on a 64 bit system. These commands identify system calls for
auditing. Even if the system is 64 bit it can still execute 32 bit system
calls. Additionally, these rules can be configured in a number of ways while
still achieving the desired effect. An example of this is that the "-S" calls
could be split up and placed on separate lines, however, this is less efficient.
Add the following to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chmod,fchmod,fchmodat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chown,fchown,fchownat,lchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S setxattr,lsetxattr,fsetxattr,removexattr,lremovexattr,fremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If your system is 64 bit then these lines should be duplicated and the
arch=b32 replaced with arch=b64 as follows:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chmod,fchmod,fchmodat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chown,fchown,fchownat,lchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S setxattr,lsetxattr,fsetxattr,removexattr,lremovexattr,fremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod |
| contains 14 rules |
Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - chmod
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to
use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup
(the default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in
the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - chown
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to
use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup
(the default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in
the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fchmod
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to
use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup
(the default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in
the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchmod -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fchmodat
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to
use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup
(the default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in
the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchmodat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchmodat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchmodat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchmodat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fchmodat2
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to
use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup
(the default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in
the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchmodat2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchmodat2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchmodat2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchmodat2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fchown
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fchownat
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchownat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchownat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fchownat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fchownat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fremovexattr
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - fsetxattr
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S fsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S fsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - lchown
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S lchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S lchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S lchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S lchown -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - lremovexattr
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S lremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S lremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S lremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S lremovexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - lsetxattr
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S lsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S lsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S lsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S lsetxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - removexattr
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add the
following line to a file with suffix .rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S removexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S removexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S removexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S removexattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

Record Events that Modify the System's Discretionary Access Controls - setxattr
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file permission
changes for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S setxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S setxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S setxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S setxattr -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=perm_mod Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to
gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing DAC modifications
can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and
unauthorized users. Identifiers:

authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for

Record Any Attempts to Run restorecon
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/restorecon -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/restorecon -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/semanage -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/semanage -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/setsebool -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/setsebool -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects File Deletion Events by User - renameat
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file deletion events
for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S renameat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S renameat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete Rationale:Auditing file deletions will create an audit trail for files that are removed
from the system. The audit trail could aid in system troubleshooting, as well as, detecting
malicious processes that attempt to delete log files to conceal their presence. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects File Deletion Events by User - renameat2
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file deletion events
for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S renameat2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S renameat2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete Rationale:Auditing file deletions will create an audit trail for files that are removed
from the system. The audit trail could aid in system troubleshooting, as well as, detecting
malicious processes that attempt to delete log files to conceal their presence. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects File Deletion Events by User - rmdir
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file deletion events
for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S rmdir -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S rmdir -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete Rationale:Auditing file deletions will create an audit trail for files that are removed
from the system. The audit trail could aid in system troubleshooting, as well as, detecting

Ensure auditd Collects File Deletion Events by User - unlink
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file deletion events
for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S unlink -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S unlink -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete Rationale:Auditing file deletions will create an audit trail for files that are removed
from the system. The audit trail could aid in system troubleshooting, as well as, detecting
malicious processes that attempt to delete log files to conceal their presence. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects File Deletion Events by User - unlinkat
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect file deletion events
for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S unlinkat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file, setting ARCH to either b32 for 32-bit
system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S unlinkat -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=delete Rationale:Auditing file deletions will create an audit trail for files that are removed
from the system. The audit trail could aid in system troubleshooting, as well as, detecting
malicious processes that attempt to delete log files to conceal their presence. Identifiers:

Record Unauthorized Access Attempts Events to Files (unsuccessful)
[ref]groupAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. Note that the "-F arch=b32" lines should be
present even on a 64 bit system. These commands identify system calls for
auditing. Even if the system is 64 bit it can still execute 32 bit system
calls. Additionally, these rules can be configured in a number of ways while
still achieving the desired effect. An example of this is that the "-S" calls
could be split up and placed on separate lines, however, this is less efficient.
Add the following to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S creat,open,openat,open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S creat,open,openat,open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If your system is 64 bit then these lines should be duplicated and the
arch=b32 replaced with arch=b64 as follows:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S creat,open,openat,open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S creat,open,openat,open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access |
| contains 19 rules |
Record Unsuccessful Access Attempts to Files - creat
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S creat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S creat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S creat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S creat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S creat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S creat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S creat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S creat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Access Attempts to Files - ftruncate
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Access Attempts to Files - open
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing

Record Unsuccessful Access Attempts to Files - open_by_handle_at
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at,truncate,ftruncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Creation Attempts to Files - open_by_handle_at O_CREAT
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect unauthorized file accesses for
all users and root. The open_by_handle_at syscall can be used to create new files
when O_CREAT flag is specified.
The following auidt rules will assure that unsuccessful attempts to create a
file via open_by_handle_at syscall are collected.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add the
rules below to a file with suffix .rules in the directory
/etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the rules below to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat,open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat,open_by_handle_at -F a2&01003 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Unauthorized Access Attempts To open_by_handle_at Are Ordered Correctly
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect detailed unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root.
To correctly identify unsuccessful creation, unsuccessful modification and unsuccessful access
of files via open_by_handle_at syscall the audit rules collecting these events need to be in certain order.
The more specific rules need to come before the less specific rules. The reason for that is that more
specific rules cover a subset of events covered in the less specific rules, thus, they need to come
before to not be overshadowed by less specific rules, which match a bigger set of events.
Make sure that rules for unsuccessful calls of open_by_handle_at syscall are in the order shown below.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), check the order of
rules below in a file with suffix .rules in the directory
/etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, check the order of rules below in
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.

-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open_by_handle_at -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create

-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open_by_handle_at -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-access
Rationale:The more specific rules cover a subset of events covered by the less specific rules.
By ordering them from more specific to less specific, it is assured that the less specific
rule will not catch events better recorded by the more specific rule. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Rules For Unauthorized Attempts To open Are Ordered Correctly
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect detailed unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root.
To correctly identify unsuccessful creation, unsuccessful modification and unsuccessful access
of files via open syscall the audit rules collecting these events need to be in certain order.
The more specific rules need to come before the less specific rules. The reason for that is that more
specific rules cover a subset of events covered in the less specific rules, thus, they need to come
before to not be overshadowed by less specific rules, which match a bigger set of events.
Make sure that rules for unsuccessful calls of open syscall are in the order shown below.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), check the order of
rules below in a file with suffix .rules in the directory
/etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, check the order of rules below in
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F a1&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F a1&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F a1&01003 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F a1&01003 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F a1&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F a1&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F a1&01003 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F a1&01003 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-access
Rationale:The more specific rules cover a subset of events covered by the less specific rules.
By ordering them from more specific to less specific, it is assured that the less specific
rule will not catch events better recorded by the more specific rule. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Access Attempts to Files - openat
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Creation Attempts to Files - openat O_CREAT
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect unauthorized file accesses for
all users and root. The openat syscall can be used to create new files
when O_CREAT flag is specified.
The following auidt rules will assure that unsuccessful attempts to create a
file via openat syscall are collected.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add the
rules below to a file with suffix .rules in the directory
/etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the rules below to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat,open_by_handle_at -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Modification Attempts to Files - openat O_TRUNC_WRITE
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect detailed unauthorized file accesses for
all users and root. The openat syscall can be used to modify files
if called for write operation of with O_TRUNC_WRITE flag.
The following auidt rules will assure that unsuccessful attempts to modify a
file via openat syscall are collected.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add the
rules below to a file with suffix .rules in the directory
/etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the rules below to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F a2&01003 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F a2&01003 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F a2&01003 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S openat -F a2&01003 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification
Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat,open_by_handle_at -F a2&01003 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-modification Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Rules For Unauthorized Attempts To openat Are Ordered Correctly
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect detailed unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root.
To correctly identify unsuccessful creation, unsuccessful modification and unsuccessful access
of files via openat syscall the audit rules collecting these events need to be in certain order.
The more specific rules need to come before the less specific rules. The reason for that is that more
specific rules cover a subset of events covered in the less specific rules, thus, they need to come
before to not be overshadowed by less specific rules, which match a bigger set of events.
Make sure that rules for unsuccessful calls of openat syscall are in the order shown below.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), check the order of
rules below in a file with suffix .rules in the directory
/etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, check the order of rules below in
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S openat -F a2&0100 -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-create

Rationale:The more specific rules cover a subset of events covered by the less specific rules.
By ordering them from more specific to less specific, it is assured that the less specific
rule will not catch events better recorded by the more specific rule. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Delete Attempts to Files - rename
[ref]ruleThe audit system should collect unsuccessful file deletion
attempts for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S rename -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S rename -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S rename -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S rename -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlink,unlinkat,rename,renameat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-delete Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to delete files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Delete Attempts to Files - renameat
[ref]rule
The audit system should collect unsuccessful file deletion
attempts for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S renameat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S renameat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S renameat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S renameat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlink,unlinkat,rename,renameat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-delete Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to delete files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Access Attempts to Files - truncate
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect unauthorized file
accesses for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S truncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S truncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S truncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S truncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S truncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S truncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S truncate -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S truncate -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=access Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping these system
calls with others as identifying earlier in this guide is more efficient. Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to access files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Delete Attempts to Files - unlink
[ref]rule
The audit system should collect unsuccessful file deletion
attempts for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlink -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlink -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S unlink -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S unlink -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlink,unlinkat,rename,renameat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-delete Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to delete files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

Record Unsuccessful Delete Attempts to Files - unlinkat
[ref]rule
The audit system should collect unsuccessful file deletion
attempts for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured
to use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon
startup (the default), add the following lines to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlinkat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlinkat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following lines:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S unlinkat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S unlinkat -F exit=-EPERM -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccessful-delete Warning:
Note that these rules can be configured in a
number of ways while still achieving the desired effect. Here the system calls
have been placed independent of other system calls. Grouping system calls related
to the same event is more efficient. See the following example:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S unlink,unlinkat,rename,renameat -F exit=-EACCES -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=unsuccesful-delete Rationale:Unsuccessful attempts to delete files could be an indicator of malicious activity on a system. Auditing
these events could serve as evidence of potential system compromise. Identifiers:

-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S init_module,delete_module -F key=modules
Place to add the lines depends on a way auditd daemon is configured. If it is configured
to use the augenrules program (the default), add the lines to a file with suffix

Ensure auditd Collects Information on Kernel Module Unloading - delete_module
[ref]rule
To capture kernel module loading and unloading events, use the following line, setting ARCH to
either b32 for 32-bit system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S delete_module -F key=modules
Place to add the line depends on a way auditd daemon is configured. If it is configured
to use the augenrules program (the default), add the line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl utility,
add the line to file /etc/audit/audit.rules.Rationale:The removal of kernel modules can be used to alter the behavior of
the kernel and potentially introduce malicious code into kernel space. It is important
to have an audit trail of modules that have been introduced into the kernel. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on Kernel Module Loading and Unloading - finit_module
[ref]rule
To capture kernel module loading and unloading events, use the following line, setting ARCH to
either b32 for 32-bit system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S finit_module -F key=modules
Place to add the line depends on a way auditd daemon is configured. If it is configured
to use the augenrules program (the default), add the line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl utility,
add the line to file /etc/audit/audit.rules.Rationale:The addition/removal of kernel modules can be used to alter the behavior of
the kernel and potentially introduce malicious code into kernel space. It is important

Ensure auditd Collects Information on Kernel Module Loading - init_module
[ref]rule
To capture kernel module loading and unloading events, use the following line, setting ARCH to
either b32 for 32-bit system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S init_module -F key=modules
Place to add the line depends on a way auditd daemon is configured. If it is configured
to use the augenrules program (the default), add the line to a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl utility,
add the line to file /etc/audit/audit.rules.Rationale:The addition of kernel modules can be used to alter the behavior of
the kernel and potentially introduce malicious code into kernel space. It is important
to have an audit trail of modules that have been introduced into the kernel. Identifiers:

[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/chage -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl

following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/chage -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - chsh
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/chsh -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/chsh -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - gpasswd
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/gpasswd -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/gpasswd -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - newgrp
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/newgrp -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/newgrp -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - pam_timestamp_check
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/pam_timestamp_check -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/pam_timestamp_check -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - passwd
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/passwd -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/passwd -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - ssh-keysign
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/libexec/ssh/ssh-keysign -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/libexec/ssh/ssh-keysign -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - sudo
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/sudo -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/sudo -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - sudoedit
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/sudoedit -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/sudoedit -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - umount
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/umount -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/umount -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - unix_chkpwd
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/sbin/unix_chkpwd -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/sbin/unix_chkpwd -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on the Use of Privileged Commands - userhelper
[ref]rule
At a minimum, the audit system should collect the execution of privileged
commands for all users and root.
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add
a line of the following form to a file with suffix .rules
in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/userhelper -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add a line of the
following form to /etc/audit/audit.rules:
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/userhelper -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=privileged Rationale:Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by
authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised system accounts,
is a serious and ongoing concern and can have significant adverse impacts on organizations.
Auditing the use of privileged functions is one way to detect such misuse and identify
the risk from insider and advanced persistent threats.
Privileged programs are subject to escalation-of-privilege attacks,
which attempt to subvert their normal role of providing some necessary but
limited capability. As such, motivation exists to monitor these programs for
unusual activity. Identifiers:

Records Events that Modify Date and Time Information
[ref]groupArbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate
nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that
are highly dependent upon an accurate system time. All changes to the system
time should be audited. |

Record attempts to alter time through adjtimex
[ref]ruleIf the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S adjtimex -F key=audit_time_rules
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex -F key=audit_time_rules
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S adjtimex -F key=audit_time_rules
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex -F key=audit_time_rules
The -k option allows for the specification of a key in string form that can be
used for better reporting capability through ausearch and aureport. Multiple
system calls can be defined on the same line to save space if desired, but is
not required. See an example of multiple combined syscalls:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex,settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules Rationale:Arbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate
nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that
are highly dependent upon an accurate system time (such as sshd). All changes
to the system time should be audited. Identifiers:

Record Attempts to Alter Time Through clock_settime
[ref]ruleIf the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S clock_settime -F a0=0x0 -F key=time-change
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S clock_settime -F a0=0x0 -F key=time-change
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S clock_settime -F a0=0x0 -F key=time-change
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S clock_settime -F a0=0x0 -F key=time-change
The -k option allows for the specification of a key in string form that can
be used for better reporting capability through ausearch and aureport.
Multiple system calls can be defined on the same line to save space if
desired, but is not required. See an example of multiple combined syscalls:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex,settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules Rationale:Arbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate
nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that
are highly dependent upon an accurate system time (such as sshd). All changes
to the system time should be audited. Identifiers:

Record attempts to alter time through settimeofday
[ref]ruleIf the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules
If the system is 64 bit then also add the following line:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules
The -k option allows for the specification of a key in string form that can be
used for better reporting capability through ausearch and aureport. Multiple
system calls can be defined on the same line to save space if desired, but is
not required. See an example of multiple combined syscalls:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex,settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules Rationale:Arbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate
nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that
are highly dependent upon an accurate system time (such as sshd). All changes
to the system time should be audited. Identifiers:

Record Attempts to Alter Time Through stime
[ref]ruleIf the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d for both 32 bit and 64 bit systems:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S stime -F key=audit_time_rules
Since the 64 bit version of the "stime" system call is not defined in the audit
lookup table, the corresponding "-F arch=b64" form of this rule is not expected
to be defined on 64 bit systems (the aforementioned "-F arch=b32" stime rule
form itself is sufficient for both 32 bit and 64 bit systems). If the
auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl utility to
read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file for both 32 bit and 64 bit systems:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S stime -F key=audit_time_rules
Since the 64 bit version of the "stime" system call is not defined in the audit
lookup table, the corresponding "-F arch=b64" form of this rule is not expected
to be defined on 64 bit systems (the aforementioned "-F arch=b32" stime rule
form itself is sufficient for both 32 bit and 64 bit systems). The -k option
allows for the specification of a key in string form that can be used for
better reporting capability through ausearch and aureport. Multiple system
calls can be defined on the same line to save space if desired, but is not
required. See an example of multiple combined system calls:
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex,settimeofday -F key=audit_time_rules Rationale:Arbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate
nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that
are highly dependent upon an accurate system time (such as sshd). All changes
to the system time should be audited. Identifiers:

Record Attempts to Alter the localtime File

If the auditd daemon is configured to use the augenrules
program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the default), add the
following lines to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-w /etc/localtime -p wa -k audit_time_rules
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to
/etc/audit/audit.rules:
-w /etc/localtime -p wa -k audit_time_rules Rationale:Arbitrary changes to the system time can be used to obfuscate
nefarious activities in log files, as well as to confuse network services that
are highly dependent upon an accurate system time (such as sshd). All changes
to the system time should be audited. Identifiers:

Ensure auditd Collects Information on Exporting to Media (successful)
[ref]ruleAt a minimum, the audit system should collect media exportation
events for all users and root. If the auditd daemon is configured to
use the augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup
(the default), add the following line to a file with suffix .rules in
the directory /etc/audit/rules.d, setting ARCH to either b32 for
32-bit system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your
system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S mount -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=export
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to
/etc/audit/audit.rules file, setting ARCH to either b32 for
32-bit system, or having two lines for both b32 and b64 in case your
system is 64-bit:
-a always,exit -F arch=ARCH -S mount -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -F key=export Rationale:The unauthorized exportation of data to external media could result in an information leak
where classified information, Privacy Act information, and intellectual property could be lost. An audit
trail should be created each time a filesystem is mounted to help identify and guard against information
loss. Identifiers:

Shutdown System When Auditing Failures Occur
[ref]ruleIf the auditd daemon is configured to use the
augenrules program to read audit rules during daemon startup (the
default), add the following line to to the bottom of a file with suffix
.rules in the directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-f 2
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following line to the
bottom of the /etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-f 2 Rationale:It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system
is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without this
notification, the security personnel may be unaware of an impending failure of
the audit capability, and system operation may be adversely affected.
Audit processing failures include software/hardware errors, failures in the
audit capturing mechanisms, and audit storage capacity being reached or
exceeded. Identifiers:

following lines to a file with suffix .rules in the
directory /etc/audit/rules.d:
-w /etc/shadow -p wa -k audit_rules_usergroup_modification
If the auditd daemon is configured to use the auditctl
utility to read audit rules during daemon startup, add the following lines to

Configure auditd Data Retention
[ref]groupThe audit system writes data to /var/log/audit/audit.log. By default,
auditd rotates 5 logs by size (6MB), retaining a maximum of 30MB of
data in total, and refuses to write entries when the disk is too
full. This minimizes the risk of audit data filling its partition
and impacting other services. This also minimizes the risk of the audit
daemon temporarily disabling the system if it cannot write audit log (which
it can be configured to do).
For a busy
system or a system which is thoroughly auditing system activity, the default settings
for data retention may be
insufficient. The log file size needed will depend heavily on what types
of events are being audited. First configure auditing to log all the events of
interest. Then monitor the log size manually for awhile to determine what file
size will allow you to keep the required data for the correct time period.
Using a dedicated partition for /var/log/audit prevents the
auditd logs from disrupting system functionality if they fill, and,
more importantly, prevents other activity in /var from filling the
partition and stopping the audit trail. (The audit logs are size-limited and
therefore unlikely to grow without bound unless configured to do so.) Some
machines may have requirements that no actions occur which cannot be audited.
If this is the case, then auditd can be configured to halt the machine
if it runs out of space. Note: Since older logs are rotated,
configuring auditd this way does not prevent older logs from being
rotated away before they can be viewed.
If your system is configured to halt when logging cannot be performed, make
sure this can never happen under normal circumstances! Ensure that
/var/log/audit is on its own partition, and that this partition is
larger than the maximum amount of data auditd will retain
normally. |

Configure auditd to use audispd's syslog plugin
[ref]ruleTo configure the auditd service to use the
syslog plug-in of the audispd audit event multiplexor, set
the active line in /etc/audit/plugins.d/syslog.conf to yes.
Restart the auditd service:
$ sudo service auditd restart Rationale:The auditd service does not include the ability to send audit
records to a centralized server for management directly. It does, however,
include a plug-in for audit event multiplexor (audispd) to pass audit records

Configure auditd admin_space_left Action on Low Disk Space

Set this value to single to cause the system to switch to single user
mode for corrective action. Acceptable values also include suspend and
halt. For certain systems, the need for availability
outweighs the need to log all actions, and a different setting should be
determined. Details regarding all possible values for ACTION are described in the
auditd.conf man page.Rationale:Administrators should be made aware of an inability to record
audit records. If a separate partition or logical volume of adequate size

Configure auditd max_log_file_action Upon Reaching Maximum Log Size
[ref]ruleThe default action to take when the logs reach their maximum size
is to rotate the log files, discarding the oldest one. To configure the action taken
by auditd, add or correct the line in /etc/audit/auditd.conf:
max_log_file_action = ACTION
Possible values for ACTION are described in the auditd.conf man
page. These include:
ignoresyslogsuspendrotatekeep_logs
Set the ACTION to rotate.
The setting is case-insensitive.Rationale:Automatically rotating logs (by setting this to rotate)
minimizes the chances of the system unexpectedly running out of disk space by
being overwhelmed with log data. However, for systems that must never discard
log data, or which use external processes to transfer it and reclaim space,
keep_logs can be employed. Identifiers:

Configure auditd space_left Action on Low Disk Space
[ref]ruleThe auditd service can be configured to take an action
when disk space starts to run low.
Edit the file /etc/audit/auditd.conf. Modify the following line,
substituting ACTION appropriately:
space_left_action = ACTION
Possible values for ACTION are described in the auditd.conf man page.
These include:
syslogemailexecsuspendsinglehalt
Set this to email (instead of the default,
which is suspend) as it is more likely to get prompt attention. Acceptable values
also include suspend, single, and halt.Rationale:Notifying administrators of an impending disk space problem may
allow them to take corrective action prior to any disruption. Identifiers:

Enable auditd Service
[ref]ruleThe auditd service is an essential userspace component of
the Linux Auditing System, as it is responsible for writing audit records to
disk.
The auditd service can be enabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl enable auditd.service Rationale:Without establishing what type of events occurred, it would be difficult
to establish, correlate, and investigate the events leading up to an outage or attack.
Ensuring the auditd service is active ensures audit records
generated by the kernel are appropriately recorded.
Additionally, a properly configured audit subsystem ensures that actions of
individual system users can be uniquely traced to those users so they
can be held accountable for their actions. Identifiers:

Enable Auditing for Processes Which Start Prior to the Audit Daemon
[ref]ruleTo ensure all processes can be audited, even those which start
prior to the audit daemon, add the argument audit=1 to the default
GRUB 2 command line for the Linux operating system.
Configure the default Grub2 kernel command line to contain audit=1 as follows:
# grub2-editenv - set "$(grub2-editenv - list | grep kernelopts) audit=1" Rationale:Each process on the system carries an "auditable" flag which indicates whether
its activities can be audited. Although auditd takes care of enabling
this for all processes which launch after it does, adding the kernel argument
ensures it is set for every process during boot. Identifiers:

Extend Audit Backlog Limit for the Audit Daemon
[ref]ruleTo improve the kernel capacity to queue all log events, even those which occurred
prior to the audit daemon, add the argument audit_backlog_limit=8192 to the default
GRUB 2 command line for the Linux operating system.
Configure the default Grub2 kernel command line to contain audit_backlog_limit=8192 as follows:
# grub2-editenv - set "$(grub2-editenv - list | grep kernelopts) audit_backlog_limit=8192" Rationale:audit_backlog_limit sets the queue length for audit events awaiting transfer
to the audit daemon. Until the audit daemon is up and running, all log messages
are stored in this queue. If the queue is overrun during boot process, the action
defined by audit failure flag is taken. Identifiers:
