So I noticed today something strange, but maybe not wrong? lets say userspace starts 2 copies of auditd. Then they kill the first copy. The kernel at that point thinks there is no userspace auditd running and will instead send things to dmesg
We could fix it by changing the handling in audit_receive_msg to reject setting the audit_pid to 0 if the current audit_nlk_pid != NETLINK_CB(skb).pid. It's not a big deal, maybe we just call results of audit with multiple userspace auditd's running at the same time a undefined and not care. Anyone think that's worth a patch? -Eric -- Linux-audit mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-audit
