Re: [PATCH ghak124 v3] audit: log nftables configuration change events

iptables, ip6tables, arptables and ebtables table registration, replacement and unregistration configuration events are logged for the native (legacy) iptables setsockopt api, but not for the nftables netlink api which is used by the nft-variant of iptables in addition to nftables itself. Add calls to log the configuration actions in the nftables netlink api. This uses the same NETFILTER_CFG record format but overloads the table field. type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-05-28 17:46:41.878:162) : table=?:0;?:0 family=unspecified entries=2 op=nft_register_gen pid=396 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld ... type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-05-28 17:46:41.878:162) : table=firewalld:1;?:0 family=inet entries=0 op=nft_register_table pid=396 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld ... type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-05-28 17:46:41.911:163) : table=firewalld:1;filter_FORWARD:85 family=inet entries=8 op=nft_register_chain pid=396 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld ... type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-05-28 17:46:41.911:163) : table=firewalld:1;filter_FORWARD:85 family=inet entries=101 op=nft_register_rule pid=396 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld ... type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-05-28 17:46:41.911:163) : table=firewalld:1;__set0:87 family=inet entries=87 op=nft_register_setelem pid=396 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld ... type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-05-28 17:46:41.911:163) : table=firewalld:1;__set0:87 family=inet entries=0 op=nft_register_set pid=396 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld For further information please see issue https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/124 Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb(a)redhat.com&gt; --- Changelog: v3: - inline message type rather than table v2: - differentiate between xtables and nftables - add set, setelem, obj, flowtable, gen - use nentries field as appropriate per type - overload the "tables" field with table handle and chain/set/flowtable include/linux/audit.h | 18 ++++++++ kernel/auditsc.c | 24 ++++++++-- net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c | 103 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 142 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
