[PATCH v3 0/4] Better integrate seccomp logging and auditing

[PATCH v3 0/4] Better integrate seccomp logging and auditing

[Tyler Hicks]

Seccomp received improved logging controls in v4.14. Applications can opt into
logging of "handled" actions (SECCOMP_RET_TRAP, SECCOMP_RET_TRACE,
SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO) using the SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_LOG bit when loading filters.
They can also debug filter matching with the new SECCOMP_RET_LOG action.
Administrators can prevent specific actions from being logged using the
kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl.

However, one corner case intentionally wasn't addressed in those v4.14 changes.
When a process is being inspected by the audit subsystem, seccomp's decision
making for logging ignores the new controls and unconditionally logs every
action taken except for SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW. This isn't particularly useful since
many existing applications don't intend to log handled actions due to them
occurring very frequently. This amount of logging fills the audit logs without
providing many benefits now that application authors have fine grained controls
at their disposal.

This patch set aligns the seccomp logging behavior for both audited and
non-audited processes. It also emits an audit record, if auditing is enabled,
when the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl is written to so that there's a
paper trail when entire actions are quieted.

Changes in v3:
* Patch 3
  - Never drop a field when emitting the audit record
  - Use the value "?" for the actions field when an error occurred while
    writing to the sysctl
  - Use the value "?" for the actions and/or old-actions fields when a failure
    to translate actions to names
  - Use the value "(none)" for the actions and/or old-actions fields when no
    actions are specified
    + This is possible when writing an empty string to the sysctl
  - Update the commit message to note the new values and give an example of
    when an empty string is written
* Patch 4
  - Adjust the control flow of seccomp_log() to exit early if nothing should be
    logged

Changes in v2:
* Patch 2
  - New patch, allowing for a configurable separator between action names
* Patch 3
  - The value of the actions field in the audit record now uses a comma instead
    of a space
  - The value of the actions field in the audit record is no longer enclosed in
    quotes
  - audit_log_start() is called with the current processes' audit_context in
    audit_seccomp_actions_logged()
  - audit_seccomp_actions_logged() no longer records the pid, uid, auid, tty,
    ses, task context, comm, or executable path
  - The new and old value of seccomp_actions_logged is recorded in the
    AUDIT_CONFIG_CHANGE record
  - The value of the "res" field in the CONFIG_CHANGE audit record is corrected
    (1 indicates success, 0 failure)
  - Updated patch 3's commit message to reflect the updated audit record format
    in the examples
* Patch 4
  - A function comment for audit_seccomp() was added to explain, among other
    things, that event filtering is performed in seccomp_log()

[PATCH v3 1/4] seccomp: Separate read and write code for actions_logged sysctl

[Tyler Hicks]

Break the read and write paths of the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged
sysctl into separate functions to maintain readability. An upcoming
change will need to audit writes, but not reads, of this sysctl which
would introduce too many conditional code paths on whether or not the
'write' parameter evaluates to true.

[PATCH v3 2/4] seccomp: Configurable separator for the actions_logged string

[Tyler Hicks]

The function that converts a bitmask of seccomp actions that are
allowed to be logged is currently only used for constructing the display
string for the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl. That string wants a
space character to be used for the separator between actions.

A future patch will make use of the same function for building a string
that will be sent to the audit subsystem for tracking modifications to
the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl. That string will need to use a
comma as a separator. This patch allows the separator character to be
configurable to meet both needs.

[PATCH v3 2/4] seccomp: Configurable separator for the actions_logged string

[Tyler Hicks]

The function that converts a bitmask of seccomp actions that are
allowed to be logged is currently only used for constructing the display
string for the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl. That string wants a
space character to be used for the separator between actions.

A future patch will make use of the same function for building a string
that will be sent to the audit subsystem for tracking modifications to
the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl. That string will need to use a
comma as a separator. This patch allows the separator character to be
configurable to meet both needs.

[PATCH v3 3/4] seccomp: Audit attempts to modify the actions_logged sysctl

[Tyler Hicks]

The decision to log a seccomp action will always be subject to the
value of the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged sysctl, even for processes
that are being inspected via the audit subsystem, in an upcoming patch.
Therefore, we need to emit an audit record on attempts at writing to the
actions_logged sysctl when auditing is enabled.

This patch updates the write handler for the actions_logged sysctl to
emit an audit record on attempts to write to the sysctl. Successful
writes to the sysctl will result in a record that includes a normalized
list of logged actions in the "actions" field and a "res" field equal to
1. Unsuccessful writes to the sysctl will result in a record that
doesn't include the "actions" field and has a "res" field equal to 0.

Not all unsuccessful writes to the sysctl are audited. For example, an
audit record will not be emitted if an unprivileged process attempts to
open the sysctl file for reading since that access control check is not
part of the sysctl's write handler.

Below are some example audit records when writing various strings to the
actions_logged sysctl.

Writing "not-a-real-action", when the kernel.seccomp.actions_logged
sysctl previously was "kill_process kill_thread trap errno trace log",
emits this audit record:

 type=CONFIG_CHANGE msg=audit(1525392371.454:120): op=seccomp-logging
 actions=? old-actions=kill_process,kill_thread,trap,errno,trace,log
 res=0

If you then write "kill_process kill_thread errno trace log", this audit
record is emitted:

 type=CONFIG_CHANGE msg=audit(1525392401.645:126): op=seccomp-logging
 actions=kill_process,kill_thread,errno,trace,log
 old-actions=kill_process,kill_thread,trap,errno,trace,log res=1

If you then write "log log errno trace kill_process kill_thread", which
is unordered and contains the log action twice, it results in the same
actions value as the previous record:

 type=CONFIG_CHANGE msg=audit(1525392436.354:132): op=seccomp-logging
 actions=kill_process,kill_thread,errno,trace,log
 old-actions=kill_process,kill_thread,errno,trace,log res=1

If you then write an empty string to the sysctl, this audit record is
emitted:

 type=CONFIG_CHANGE msg=audit(1525392494.413:138): op=seccomp-logging
 actions=(none) old-actions=kill_process,kill_thread,errno,trace,log
 res=1

No audit records are generated when reading the actions_logged sysctl.

[PATCH v3 4/4] seccomp: Don't special case audited processes when logging

[Tyler Hicks]

Seccomp logging for "handled" actions such as RET_TRAP, RET_TRACE, or
RET_ERRNO can be very noisy for processes that are being audited. This
patch modifies the seccomp logging behavior to treat processes that are
being inspected via the audit subsystem the same as processes that
aren't under inspection. Handled actions will no longer be logged just
because the process is being inspected. Since v4.14, applications have
the ability to request logging of handled actions by using the
SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_LOG flag when loading seccomp filters.

With this patch, the logic for deciding if an action will be logged is:

  if action == RET_ALLOW:
    do not log
  else if action not in actions_logged:
    do not log
  else if action == RET_KILL:
    log
  else if action == RET_LOG:
    log
  else if filter-requests-logging:
    log
  else:
    do not log

Kees, are you still okay with v3?  Also, are you okay with these
patches going in via the audit tree, or would you prefer to take them
via seccomp?  I've got a slight preference for the audit tree myself,
but as I said before, as long as it hits Linus' tree I'm happy.
