Hi everyone,
I'd like to make use of some of the systemd hardening features [0] in the Debian rsyslog package. I eventually want those changes to go upstream though, so I'm asking for feedback here. This is what I currently have in mind: [Service] ProtectSystem=full ProtectHome=yes PrivateTmp=yes CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_SYSLOG CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE What potentially could cause problems is the limitation of the capabilties via CapabilityBoundingSet [1]. Does anyone know, what capabilities [2] rsyslog needs beyond CAP_SYSLOG and CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE if you want to make use of all its features? Are other distros interested in shipping such a more restrictive configuration?
