I am trying to write a script that does the following:
1) Finds all root logins and su's to root.
2) Tracks all commands run after that login.
3) Associates each command with its login.
Sounds easy, huh? Devil's in the details.
Current method of attack is to find all of the su's and logins,
and save the session ID. Then I can go through and pick out the
'exec' events with that session ID and run as root. My old
method was to follow all of the forks from a login. It was not
pretty, but seemed to work most of the time. I thought following
session IDs would be more robust and less error prone.
But I have a audit trail here that is confounding my best
efforts. What we have is a "forced" SSH command. There are a
few problems with the trail. First, it looks like it starts
forking children before the login. Second, the login has a
different session ID than its children. I'm a bit confused
about what is going on here. Here's the audit trail. It's in
XML format. I find that easier to read with the labels.
What's killing me is that the login (the 'login - ssh' event)
has a different session ID that its children (the 'exec(2)'
of 'ksh -c /etc/security/sox_baseline'). Bug? Feature? Do I
need to revert to my old method? This is Solaris 9 using
the Sun SSH daemon.
