Hello Steve,
can you please explain the versioning you use when you make these
announcements?
I am running CentOS-6.6 and that auditd release I have is at a much lower
revision; auditd-2.3.7-5.el6.x86_64 for the package.
Is that JUST BECAUSE I am on CentOS, and they are that far behind or is it
because they handle RPM versioning separately from RedHat?
Thank you sir,
Warron French, MBA, SCSA

Subject: audit 2.5.1 released
Hello,
I've just released a new version of the audit daemon. It can be downloaded from
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit. It will also be in rawhide soon. The
ChangeLog is:
- Updated and added audit rules
- Updated errno table for 4.4 kernel
- Change interpretation of exit to use errno define rather than a number
- Add distribute_network configuration option to auditd
- New aggregate only mode for auditd
- Cleanup tmp file left by augenrules --check
- Fix initial build from svn without golang support installed
- Update auparse interpretations for hook, action, macproto, chardev, and net
- Update interpretations for the 4.5 kernel
- Fix DST bug in ausearch/report time handling
- Add optional ExecStopPost to auditd.service to clear rules on service exit
- Update ausearch/report buffer size for locales with large time formats
- Add auparse_feed_age_events function to auparse library
- Use auparse_feed_age_events in zos & prelude plugins
This update includes more rules to compose into a policy. There is a new pci-
dss set of rules, for example.
Interpretations have been updated and improved.
Auditd gained a new configuration options, distribute_network, which determines
if events read from the network should be distributed to audispd for plugin
analysis. This would allow for whole datacenter realtime analysis. The other
configuration option, There is also a new option in the auditd.service file,
ExecStopPost, which clears audit rules on shutdown. This allows makes shutdown
more quiet like the sysVinit systems.
There is a new function in auparse library to age pending events. This is
necessary when an event has accumulated but no new events are arriving which
would cause aging and processing of events that time out. The example plugin
code has been updated to show its proper use.
Please let me know if you run across any problems with this release.
-Steve
