* Vendor branch import of TrustedBSD OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 6:rwatson2006-06-051-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Use AU_TO_WRITE and AU_NO_TO_WRITE for the 'keep' argument to au_close(); previously we used hard-coded 0 and 1 values. - Add man page for au_open(), au_write(), au_close(), and au_close_buffer(). - Support a more complete range of data types for the arbitrary data token: add AUR_CHAR (alias to AUR_BYTE), remove AUR_LONG, add AUR_INT32 (alias to AUR_INT), add AUR_INT64. - Add au_close_token(), which allows writing a single token_t to a memory buffer. Not likely to be used much by applications, but useful for writing test tools. - Modify au_to_file() so that it accepts a timeval in user space, not just kernel -- this is not a Solaris BSM API so can be modified without causing compatibility issues. - Define a new API, au_to_header32_tm(), which adds a struct timeval argument to the ordinary au_to_header32(), which is now implemented by wrapping au_to_header32_tm() and calling gettimeofday(). #ifndef KERNEL the APIs that invoke gettimeofday(), rather than having a variable definition. Don't try to retrieve time zone information using gettimeofday(), as it's not needed, and introduces possible failure modes. - Don't perform byte order transformations on the addr/machine fields of the terminal ID that appears in the process32/subject32 tokens. These are assumed to be IP addresses, and as such, to be in network byte order. - Universally, APIs now assume that IP addresses and ports are provided in network byte order. APIs now generally provide these types in network byte order when decoding. - Beginnings of an OpenBSM test framework can now be found in openbsm/test. This code is not built or installed by default. - auditd now assigns more appropriate syslog levels to its debugging and error information. - Support for audit filters introduced: audit filters are dynamically loaded shared objects that run in the context of a new daemon, auditfilterd. The daemon reads from an audit pipe and feeds both BSM and parsed versions of records to shared objects using a module API. This will provide a framework for the writing of intrusion detection services. - New utility API, audit_submit(), added to capture common elements of audit record submission for many applications.

* Vendor branch import of OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 3:rwatson2006-02-061-30/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | - Man page formatting, cross reference, mlinks, and accuracy improvements. - auditd and tools now compile and run on FreeBSD/arm. - auditd will now fchown() the trail file to the audit review group, if defined at compile-time. - Added AUE_SYSARCH for FreeBSD. - Definition of AUE_SETFSGID fixed for Linux.

* Initial vendor import of the TrustedBSD OpenBSM distribution, versionrwatson2006-01-311-0/+220
1.0 alpha 1, an implementation of the documented Sun Basic Security Module (BSM) Audit API and file format, as well as local extensions to support the Mac OS X and FreeBSD operating systems. Also included are command line tools for audit trail reduction and conversion to text, as well as documentation of the commands, file format, and APIs. This distribution is the foundation for the TrustedBSD Audit implementation, and is a pre-release. This is the first in a series of commits to introduce support for Common Criteria CAPP security event audit support. This software has been made possible through the generous contributions of Apple Computer, Inc., SPARTA, Inc., as well as members of the TrustedBSD Project, including Wayne Salamon <wsalamon> and Tom Rhodes <trhodes>. The original OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research under contract to Apple Computer, Inc., as part of their CC CAPP security evaluation.
