From 326bee0286d7f6b0d780f5b75a35ea9fe489a802 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tyler Hicks Date: Fri, 4 May 2018 01:08:15 +0000 Subject: seccomp: Don't special case audited processes when logging 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 Reported-by: Steve Grubb Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks Acked-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Paul Moore --- Documentation/userspace-api/seccomp_filter.rst | 7 ------- include/linux/audit.h | 10 +--------- kernel/auditsc.c | 14 +++++++++++++- kernel/seccomp.c | 17 +++++++---------- 4 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/userspace-api/seccomp_filter.rst b/Documentation/userspace-api/seccomp_filter.rst index 099c412951d6..82a468bc7560 100644 --- a/Documentation/userspace-api/seccomp_filter.rst +++ b/Documentation/userspace-api/seccomp_filter.rst @@ -207,13 +207,6 @@ directory.
