Subject: [PATCH ghak25 v6] audit: add subj creds to NETFILTER_CFG record to cover async unregister
Date: Wed, 20 May 2020 12:51:32 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a585b9933896bc542347d8f3f26b08005344dd84.1589920939.git.rgb@redhat.com> (raw)

Some table unregister actions seem to be initiated by the kernel to
garbage collect unused tables that are not initiated by any userspace
actions.  It was found to be necessary to add the subject credentials to
cover this case to reveal the source of these actions.  A sample record:

The uid, auid, tty, ses and exe fields have not been included since they
are in the SYSCALL record and contain nothing useful in the non-user
context.

  type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2020-03-11 21:25:21.491:269) : table=nat family=bridge entries=0 op=unregister pid=153 subj=system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0 comm=kworker/u4:2
