[RFC PATCH ghak10 v6 1/2] timekeeping: Audit clock adjustments
From: Ondrej Mosnacek
Date: Thu Mar 07 2019 - 07:33:17 EST
Emit an audit record whenever the system clock is changed (i.e. shifted
by a non-zero offset) by a syscall from userspace. The syscalls than can
(at the time of writing) trigger such record are:
- settimeofday(2), stime(2), clock_settime(2) -- via
do_settimeofday64()
- adjtimex(2), clock_adjtime(2) -- via do_adjtimex()
The new records have type AUDIT_TIME_INJOFFSET and contain the following
fields:
- sec -- the 'seconds' part of the offset
- nsec -- the 'nanoseconds' part of the offset
For reference, running the following commands:
auditctl -D
auditctl -a exit,always -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex
chronyd -q
triggers (among others) a syscall that produces audit records like this:
type=TIME_INJOFFSET msg=audit(1530616049.652:13): sec=-16 nsec=124887145
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1530616049.652:13): arch=c000003e syscall=159 success=yes exit=5 a0=7fff57e78270 a1=1 a2=fffffffffffffff0 a3=137b828205ca12 items=0 ppid=626 pid=629 auid=0 uid=385 gid=382 euid=385 suid=385 fsuid=385 egid=382 sgid=382 fsgid=382 tty=(none) ses=1 comm="chronyd" exe="/usr/sbin/chronyd" subj=system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0 key=(null)
type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(1530616049.652:13): proctitle=6368726F6E7964002D71 cd /home/omosnace/Dokumenty/Kernel/worktrees/audit/src/kernel/time
s
The above records have been produced by the following syscall from
chronyd (as per strace output):
adjtimex({modes=ADJ_SETOFFSET|ADJ_NANO, offset=0, freq=750433, maxerror=16000000, esterror=16000000, status=STA_UNSYNC|STA_NANO, constant=2, precision=1, tolerance=32768000, time={tv_sec=1530616033, tv_usec=778717675}, tick=10000, ppsfreq=0, jitter=0, shift=0, stabil=0, jitcnt=0, calcnt=0, errcnt=0, stbcnt=0, tai=0}) = 5 (TIME_ERROR)
(The struct timex fields above are from *after* the syscall was
executed, so they contain the current (new) values as set from the
kernel, except of the 'modes' field, which contains the original value
sent by the caller.)
