From 7e8eda734d30de81d06a949c9bf9853c445ede4e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ondrej Mosnacek Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2019 11:14:20 +0200 Subject: ntp: Audit NTP parameters adjustment Emit an audit record every time selected NTP parameters are modified from userspace (via adjtimex(2) or clock_adjtime(2)). These parameters may be used to indirectly change system clock, and thus their modifications should be audited. Such events will now generate records of type AUDIT_TIME_ADJNTPVAL containing the following fields: - op -- which value was adjusted: - offset -- corresponding to the time_offset variable - freq -- corresponding to the time_freq variable - status -- corresponding to the time_status variable - adjust -- corresponding to the time_adjust variable - tick -- corresponding to the tick_usec variable - tai -- corresponding to the timekeeping's TAI offset - old -- the old value - new -- the new value Example records: type=TIME_ADJNTPVAL msg=audit(1530616044.507:7): op=status old=64 new=8256 type=TIME_ADJNTPVAL msg=audit(1530616044.511:11): op=freq old=0 new=49180377088000 The records of this type will be associated with the corresponding syscall records. An overview of parameter changes that can be done via do_adjtimex() (based on information from Miroslav Lichvar) and whether they are audited: __timekeeping_set_tai_offset() -- sets the offset from the International Atomic Time (AUDITED) NTP variables: time_offset -- can adjust the clock by up to 0.5 seconds per call and also speed it up or slow down by up to about 0.05% (43 seconds per day) (AUDITED) time_freq -- can speed up or slow down by up to about 0.05% (AUDITED) time_status -- can insert/delete leap seconds and it also enables/ disables synchronization of the hardware real-time clock (AUDITED) time_maxerror, time_esterror -- change error estimates used to inform userspace applications (NOT AUDITED) time_constant -- controls the speed of the clock adjustments that are made when time_offset is set (NOT AUDITED) time_adjust -- can temporarily speed up or slow down the clock by up to 0.05% (AUDITED) tick_usec -- a more extreme version of time_freq; can speed up or slow down the clock by up to 10% (AUDITED) Signed-off-by: Ondrej Mosnacek Reviewed-by: Richard Guy Briggs Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Paul Moore --- kernel/time/timekeeping.c | 7 ++++++- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'kernel/time/timekeeping.c') diff --git a/kernel/time/timekeeping.c b/kernel/time/timekeeping.c index 3d24be4cd607..f366f2fdf1b0 100644 --- a/kernel/time/timekeeping.c +++ b/kernel/time/timekeeping.c @@ -2307,6 +2307,7 @@ static int timekeeping_validate_timex(const struct __kernel_timex *txc) int do_adjtimex(struct __kernel_timex *txc) { struct timekeeper *tk = &tk_core.timekeeper; + struct audit_ntp_data ad; unsigned long flags; struct timespec64 ts; s32 orig_tai, tai; @@ -2330,13 +2331,15 @@ int do_adjtimex(struct __kernel_timex *txc) audit_tk_injoffset(delta); } + audit_ntp_init(&ad); + ktime_get_real_ts64(&ts); raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&timekeeper_lock, flags); write_seqcount_begin(&tk_core.seq); orig_tai = tai = tk->tai_offset; - ret = __do_adjtimex(txc, &ts, &tai); + ret = __do_adjtimex(txc, &ts, &tai, &ad); if (tai != orig_tai) { __timekeeping_set_tai_offset(tk, tai); @@ -2347,6 +2350,8 @@ int do_adjtimex(struct __kernel_timex *txc) write_seqcount_end(&tk_core.seq); raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&timekeeper_lock, flags); + audit_ntp_log(&ad); + /* Update the multiplier immediately if frequency was set directly */ if (txc->modes & (ADJ_FREQUENCY | ADJ_TICK)) timekeeping_advance(TK_ADV_FREQ); -- cgit v1.2.3
