audit 1.0.2 released
by Steve Grubb
Hello,
I've just released a new version of the audit daemon. It can be downloaded
from http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit It will also be in rawhide
tomorrow. The Changelog is:
- Make sure error packets get eaten.
- Fix a few error messages in auditctl
- Fix handling of unsupported watches when reading rules from file in auditctl
This is a bugfix release that addresses problems when people build their own
kernels and do not have everything enabled as a distribution kernel would be.
This package is not going to be built for RHEL4 at this time.
Let me know if there are any problems.

watch question
by Linda Knippers
I'm running the capp rules on my ia64 box with the .84 kernel and the
1.0.1 tools and I'm seeing audit records for things that I don't think I
should be seeing them for.
With a watch rule like this:
-w /etc/group -p wa -k CFG_group
with the associated syscall rules in the capp rules file, should
I only be getting records when someone writes or appends to the
group file? That's what I think the -p options mean but I'm
getting audit records anytime someone does anything to the group
file, including just access()ing it. The same is true for other
watched files.
With a little test program that does a read access check on
any file, I always get a set of audit records like this when I do
it on a watched file.
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1123283719.207:502): arch=c0000032 syscall=1049

Should that be happening?
My little test program and output of an auditctl -v are attached.

audit 1.0 released
by Steve Grubb
Hello,
I've just released a new version of the audit daemon. It can be downloaded
from http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit It will also be in rawhide
tomorrow. The Changelog is:
- Update sample CAPP config
- Remove warning for trimming file path in auditctl
- Make auditctl tolerate duplicate rule and watches
- auditd has new option so it doesn't overwrite log files
- Fixed bug in autrace that was reporting bad descriptor
This release marks the end of the current development for a CAPP style
auditing subsystem. This version is now in maintenance mode. All bugs fixed
for this version will continue to have 1.0.x notation. All new features will
be put into a 1.X release (where X >= 1) as we work towards a 2.0 version.
Please let me know of any problems.

[PATCH] prevent duplicate syscall rules
by Amy Griffis
The following patch against audit.81 prevents duplicate syscall rules in a
given filter list by walking the list on each rule add.
I also removed the unused struct audit_entry in audit.c and made the static
inlines in auditsc.c consistent.
