history notes since the last import: OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 12 - Correct bug in auditreduce which prevented the -c option from working correctly when the user specifies to process successful or failed events. The problem stemmed from not having access to the return token at the time the initial preselection occurred, but now a second preselection process occurs while processing the return token. - getacfilesz(3) API added to read new audit_control(5) filesz setting, which auditd(8) now sets the kernel audit trail rotation size to. - auditreduce(1) now uses stdin if no file names are specified on the command line; this was the documented behavior previously, but it was not implemented. Be more specific in auditreduce(1)'s examples section about what might be done with the output of auditreduce. - Add audit_warn(5) closefile event so that administrators can hook termination of an audit trail file. For example, this might be used to compress the trail file after it is closed. - auditreduce(1) now uses regular expressions for pathname matching. Users can now supply one or more (comma delimited) regular expressions for searching the pathnames. If one of the regular expressions is prefixed with a tilde (~), and a path matches, it will be excluded from the search results. MFC after: 3 days Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project |

OpenBSM 1.0 Introduction OpenBSM provides an open source implementation of Sun's BSM Audit API. Originally created under contract to Apple Computer by McAfee Research, this implementation is now maintained by volunteers and the generous contribution of several organizations. Coupled with a kernel audit implementation, OpenBSM can be used to maintain system audit streams, and is a foundation for an Audit-enabled system. Contents OpenBSM consists of several directories: bin/ Audit-related command line tools bsm/ System include files for BSM etc/ Sample /etc/security configuration files libbsm/ Implementation of BSM library interfaces and man pages man/ System call and configuration file man pages OpenBSM currently builds on FreeBSD and Darwin. With Makefile adjustment and minor tweaks, it should build without problems on a broad range of POSIX-like systems. Building OpenBSM is currently built using autoconf and automake, which should allow for building on a range of operating systems, including FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Linux. Depending on the availability of audit facilities in the underlying operating system, some components that depend on kernel audit support are built conditionally. Typically, build will be performed using ./configure make To install, use: make install You may wish to specify that the OpenBSM components not be installed in the base system, rather in a specific directory. This may be done using the --prefix argument to configure. If installing to a specific directory, remember to update your library path so that running tools from that directory the correct libbsm is used: ./configure --prefix=/home/rwatson/openbsm make make install LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/rwatson/openbsm/libbsm ; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH You will need to manually propagate openbsm/etc/* into /etc on your system; this is not done automatically so as to avoid disrupting the current configuration. Currently, the locations of these files is not configurable. Credits The following organizations and individuals have contributed substantially to the development of OpenBSM: Apple Computer, Inc. McAfee Research, McAfee, Inc. SPARTA, Inc.
