The audit_status structure was not designed with extensibility in mind.
Define a new AUDIT_SET_FEATURE message type which takes a new structure
of bits where things can be enabled/disabled/locked one at a time. This
structure should be able to grow in the future while maintaining forward
and backward compatibility (based loosly on the ideas from capabilities
and prctl)
This does not actually add any features, but is just infrastructure to
allow new on/off types of audit system features.

This is just a code rework. It makes things more readable. It does not

It does change the log messages to include both the old session id as
well the new and it includes a new res field, which means we get
messages even when the user did not have permission to change the
loginuid.

New subject: [PATCH 4/7] audit: remove CONFIG_AUDIT_LOGINUID_IMMUTABLE
After trying to use this feature in Fedora we found the hard coding
policy like this into the kernel was a bad idea. Surprise surprise.
We ran into these problems because it was impossible to launch a
container as a logged in user and run a login daemon inside that container.
This reverts back to the old behavior before this option was added. The
option will be re-added in a userspace selectable manor such that
userspace can choose when it is and when it is not appropriate.

If a task has CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL allow that task to unset their loginuid.
This would allow a child of that task to set their loginuid without
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL. Thus when launching a new login daemon, a
priviledged helper would be able to unset the loginuid and then the
daemon, which may be malicious user facing, do not need priv to function
correctly.

New subject: [PATCH 6/7] audit: audit feature to only allow unsetting the loginuid
This is a new audit feature which only grants processes with
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL the ability to unset their loginuid. They cannot
directly set it from a valid uid to another valid uid. The ability to
unset the loginuid is nice because a priviledged task, like that of
container creation, can unset the loginuid and then priv is not needed
inside the container when a login daemon needs to set the loginuid.

I'm also not sure I like it done this way. What I was thinking about is that
we should set this at boot so that no matter what happens during boot, the
policy is for setting loginuid cannot be messed with. We really do not want
this to be changeable after the system comes up. I'd much rather see this as
audit=4 on the boot prompt (meaning enabled and immutable). This way its clear
to everyone that it can only be changed by rebooting the system and the policy
is in effect for the duration of the session.

I'm also not sure I like it done this way. What I was thinking about is that
we should set this at boot so that no matter what happens during boot, the
policy is for setting loginuid cannot be messed with. We really do not want
this to be changeable after the system comes up. I'd much rather see this as
audit=4 on the boot prompt (meaning enabled and immutable). This way its clear
to everyone that it can only be changed by rebooting the system and the policy
is in effect for the duration of the session.
Linus has explicitly said the kernel command line options are only
acceptable if they are required for kernel functionality before they can
be set by userspace. If we don't trust the audit system initialization
we already lost and no amount of audit= is going to change that. Since
there is absolutely no benefit to setting this on the kernel command
line, before we can parse and use the audit.rules, I can not make this
yet another archaic command line option. I'm sorry, but this just
cannot happen...

I'd say that is the case. If we are going to have immutable loginuid, we don't
want some processes running under one policy and then others later under
another policy. Besides, this isn't adding a boot command. Its already there.
If we don't trust the audit system initialization we already lost
and no
amount of audit= is going to change that.
I'm thinking more about High Assurance cases where the boot
partition/environment is removed from an attacker's reach. Consider use cases
where you want to allow root, but you do not want them to make certain kinds
of changes to the system by taking away certain capabilities in the initramfs
which is outside of the control of anyone with root.

If that's the case, you must be loading the audit policy inside the
initramfs, and thus, you can set this inside the initrd. We MUST have
absolute trust until the audit.rules are processed. To get a boot
option, we have to show how this has value before the audit.rules are
loaded. And it doesn't... Not in any system I can imagine. Nor in the
description you gave above... What am I missing?

I don't think anyone has plans to write those tools at the moment. That would
be ideal. But even in the case where audit rules don't get loaded, there are
audit events generated by the MAC systems and some hard coded kernel events
and user space events. It would be nice to know they are not tampered with.

I know you want to treat this like SE Linux where audit rules = selinux
policy. SE Linux policy is tightly integrated to the boot process. I'd bet
that if selinux was enabled and loading failed, the system halts. It also
happens very early before other daemons run. The audit system isn't designed
this way. Rules can fail to load and the system still comes up. I'd like to at
least have a way to prevent tampering with loginuid should someone discover a
system like this.

Currently its a compile time option. This means when its selected the auid is
immutable and you have a strong assurance argument that any action by the
subject really is the subject's account. Strong assurance may be required for
high assurance deployments. It would be more solid standing up in court as
well because the argument can be made that whatever action occurred can be
attributed to the subject because there is no way to change it. Its tamper-
proof.
The change means the default policy will now allow process with
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL to change the auid to anything at anytime and then perform
actions which would be attributed to another user. There is an event logged on
setting the loginuid, so it could be considered tamper-evident. At least as
long as the event's not filtered or erased.
My preference is that we have a way that we can put the system into the
immutable mode in a way that leaves no doubts about whether the system has
operated under the same policy from beginning to end.

This sounds dangerous. Why would we

That is a better way.
From an end user perspective I can tell you that although we strive to
be diligent, the reality of reduced budgets and multi-tasking security
managers means that tamper-proof (at least as a near-to-mid-term goal)
is desired over tamper-evident.
Even if the event is not erased or filtered it means another requirement
levied on a person which I do not believe existed before.
Thanks for the info, Steve. I appreciate it!

This sounds dangerous. Why would we want to allow this?
Immutability was first introduced in kernel 3.3. It wasn't enabled in
the kernel config for Fedora until some time much later. It is not
present in any enterprise distro that I know of.
Before systemd immutability was not possible. If an admin logged in and
restarted the sshd daemon the daemon would be running as the admin's
loginuid. When a new user tried to log in via ssh it would need to
change the loginuid from the admin loginuid to their new loginuid. We
had to give sshd CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL in order to switch the loginuid.
(ALL loginuid changes required CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL)
When systemd came out I added immutability. Since restarting sshd in a
systemd world is done by init, which has no loginuid, and thus the new
sshd would have no loginuid. Thus a user logging in would be able to
set a new loginuid without any permissions.
We learned that admins, for various reasons, really do want to be able
to launch daemons by hand and not via init/systemd. In particular, we
know of many people who launch containers by hand which allows some form
of login (usually sshd). With the current loginuid immutable code those
people are UNABLE to log in inside the container.
This patch series allows a privileged task (one with CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL)
the ability to unset their own loginuid. I allows behavior similar to
the pre 3.3 kernels. Big different being that the privilege is needed
in a helper to UNSET the loginuid, not in the network facing daemon
(ssh) to SET the loginuid. The series also allows the 'unsetting'
feature to be disabled and locked so it cannot ever be enabled.
Whew, so now we have background. Now we can talk about the tamper-proof
vs tamper-evident discussion. I do not buy tamper-proof at all. If the
user has CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL claiming tamper-proof-ness is a lie. They
can auditctl -e0 and win. Ah, but one might retort, what is someone ran
auditctl -e2. And I would retort, but good sir, if you ran auditctl -e2
to stop CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL from completely owning the box, why didn't you
set the loginuid immutable first?
Thus far every statement that I have seen about loginuid_immutable being
necessary on the kernel command line does not stand up to scrutiny...

Thank you for these details; I really appreciate it.
As far as restarting daemons - I guess in theory this obviates the
"run_init" command?
Or only the uid part of the context?
And by breaking apart the unsetting (privileged helper) with the setting
(daemon itself) this is more securely accomplished?
Chewing on this a bit...regardless, thanks again for the details; it

"run_init" command?
Or only the uid part of the context?
Correct. "systemctl start httpd.service" or "service httpd
start" (which just maps to the systemctl command) no longer need
run_init to deal with the SELinux context of init vs sysadm/unconfined.
And by breaking apart the unsetting (privileged helper) with the
setting
(daemon itself) this is more securely accomplished?
I believe so. In the RHEL6 way of handling loginuid, we would have to
give CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL inside the container, since sshd inside the
container would need it to allow users to log in (mind you RHEL6 doesn't
have containers, but still)
In this way the helper which creates the container could be given the
priv and CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL would never be granted inside the container
at all. I believe it's a better design any time network facing daemons
have less privilege.

Shouldn't audit_set_feature() check the version number, granted it doesn't

if(uaf->version <= AUDIT_FEATURE_SUPPORTED_VERSION)
This branchy code could be:
if (new_feature)

changed to:

This changes how we have been doing things. The way that the audit system
settings have been done is to use the AUDIT_SET and AUDIT_GET commands. It
takes a bit map as the function to perform. We have only used 5 of the 32
bits.
Do we really need another of the same thing?

This changes how we have been doing things. The way that the audit system
settings have been done is to use the AUDIT_SET and AUDIT_GET commands. It
takes a bit map as the function to perform. We have only used 5 of the 32
bits.
Do we really need another of the same thing?
It's not the same thing. This is an interface designed for options
which have 4 states. On/Off and Locked/Unlocked. It is certainly the
right solution for that problem if we want to solve it generically.
(look at what it did to the other code who wanted an on/off option)
AUDIT_SET/GET was designed around setting a kernel variable to a single
value. It does an ok job at this (although I'd argue that there could
be a better design here as well, but we have this, so we live with it.)
It certainly does not form naturally to the 4 states of the new
interface.
I can certainly shoehorn a 4 state interface into AUDIT_SET/GET. But I
believe it will be less obvious and less efficient code. Maybe that
doesn't matter too much since only you have to deal with it and it isn't
run particularly often but I don't see a reason to solve a problem
inefficiently. No matter what we are going to have a new design
pattern, so why not a natural pattern rather than one we are forcing to
needlessly conform?
Let's say we do want to force ourselves to use the AUDIT_SET/GET netlink
message. What do you think the interface should look like?
I can just do the exact same thing inside AUDIT_SET/GET where I
implement a usable bitmask of on/off/lockable options. It'd be
basically the exact same thing as I have now, just more multiplexing
over the GET/SET message. Certainly no better.
I could add two new audit status bits, AUDIT_STATUS_LOGINUID_IMMUTABLE
and AUDIT_STATUS_LOGINUID_IMMUTABLE_LOCKED, along with two __u8's to
struct audit_status. One __u8 could be loginuid_immutable and the other
loginuid_immutable_locked. I guess that keeps us in line with the
GET/SET mentality. I don't see a benefit, but I am biased towards my
own code.
I could also do it as one __u8 and have magic meaning to the bits inside
the __u8, aka,
0 == off unlocked
1 == on unlocked
2 == off locked
3 == on locked
but that seems to needlessly make the code more indecipherable to
humans. So I won't do it (I see audit_panic and audit_enabled as
examples of this poor design pattern)
What do you think it should look like and why is it better than mine
which has proven quite nice for multiple people?

<snip>
I had some code that I submitted to Eric on top of his generic feature
set/get patch, and reduced my change set to 8 lines. The nicest parts of it
is that it is bitpacked, so we wont really need to bump the revision of the
struct up for anything in the near future. AUDIT_SET/GET are unversioned
(if i remember right) so their is no way to add capability to it in a
portable sense. No matter what, it would be nice to get everything new
versioned, their are a bazillion flags in the switch, and its annoying.
Also, in my case, if I can avoid having to add a new flag, it just makes
enhancing the audit subsystem way easier. It felt dirty adding a new case
to the switch...

It certainly does not form naturally to the 4 states of the new
interface.
I did some more digging. I guess the GET/SET interface is limited. Setting
values could be done by reusing one of the places in the struct, but then
getting the values would be a problem.
So, how is user space supposed to detect that the kernel supports this
interface? What I have needed for years is a way to ask the kernel what
features it currently contains. For example, if you try to use interfield
comparisons and the kernel doesn't support it, I get an EINVAL and bounce that
to the user. What would be better is if I could ask the kernel what features
it contains and then I can not send the interfield comparison but output a
message saying the current kernel does not support this feature.
I can certainly shoehorn a 4 state interface into AUDIT_SET/GET.
Does the new interface support more than 4 a state variable? Suppose we need
to set a number value like 8192, will it do that?

No. The new interface is written to be on/off locked/unlock
The get/set interface could be extended to allow for this. We'd have to
grow the size of struct audit_status with a new __u32. Kernel space
would have to 0 out the struct and overwrite it with what it got from
userspace. Userspace would just have to ignore the additional info from
a read...
I agree, a version field is useful.

Shouldn't we be recording all the subjecting information? The above would be

Just spent some time debugging auditctl, it was doing something I thought was
weird. I tracked it down to this patch, see below for commentary...

Isn't this broke? This returns the status (AUDIT_GET) instead of all the bits
that got set via the set_feature command. It needs to build a struct
audit_features and send it back using AUDIT_GET_FEATURE as the netlink msg
type.
