[PATCH -v3 4/5] AUDIT: collect info when execve results in caps in pE

Mon Nov 10 14:53:34 UTC 2008


Quoting Eric Paris (eparis at redhat.com):
> Any time fcaps or a setuid app under SECURE_NOROOT is used to result in a
> non-zero pE we will crate a new audit record which contains the entire set
> of known information about the executable in question, fP, fI, fE, fversion
> and includes the process's pE, pI, pP.  Before and after the bprm capability
> are applied.  This record type will only be emitted from execve syscalls.
> 
> an example of making ping use fcaps instead of setuid:
> 
> setcap "cat_net_raw+pe" /bin/ping
