31 .Nd introduction to security under
34 Security is a function that begins and ends with the system administrator.
37 multi-user systems have some inherent security, the job of building and
38 maintaining additional security mechanisms to keep users
41 one of the single largest undertakings of the sysadmin.
43 only as secure as you make them, and security concerns are ever competing
44 with the human necessity for convenience.
47 in general, are capable of running a huge number of simultaneous processes
48 and many of these processes operate as servers \(em meaning that external
49 entities can connect and talk to them.
50 As yesterday's mini-computers and mainframes
51 become today's desktops, and as computers become networked and internetworked,
52 security becomes an ever bigger issue.
54 Security is best implemented through a layered onion approach.
56 what you want to do is to create as many layers of security as are convenient
57 and then carefully monitor the system for intrusions.
59 overbuild your security or you will interfere with the detection side, and
60 detection is one of the single most important aspects of any security
62 For example, it makes little sense to set the
67 on every system binary because while this may temporarily protect the
68 binaries, it prevents an attacker who has broken in from making an
69 easily detectable change that may result in your security mechanisms not
70 detecting the attacker at all.
72 System security also pertains to dealing with various forms of attacks,
73 including attacks that attempt to crash or otherwise make a system unusable
74 but do not attempt to break root.
75 Security concerns can be split up into
77 .Bl -enum -offset indent
79 Denial of Service attacks (DoS)
81 User account compromises
83 Root compromise through accessible servers
85 Root compromise via user accounts
90 A denial of service attack is an action that deprives the machine of needed
92 Typically, DoS attacks are brute-force mechanisms that attempt
93 to crash or otherwise make a machine unusable by overwhelming its servers or
95 Some DoS attacks try to take advantages of bugs in the
96 networking stack to crash a machine with a single packet.
98 only be fixed by applying a bug fix to the kernel.
99 Attacks on servers can
100 often be fixed by properly specifying options to limit the load the servers
101 incur on the system under adverse conditions.
102 Brute-force network attacks are harder to deal with.
103 A spoofed-packet attack, for example, is
104 nearly impossible to stop short of cutting your system off from the Internet.
105 It may not be able to take your machine down, but it can fill up Internet
108 A user account compromise is even more common than a DoS attack.
110 sysadmins still run standard
116 servers on their machines.
117 These servers, by default, do not operate over encrypted
119 The result is that if you have any moderate-sized user base,
120 one or more of your users logging into your system from a remote location
121 (which is the most common and convenient way to log in to a system)
122 will have his or her password sniffed.
123 The attentive system administrator will analyze
124 his remote access logs looking for suspicious source addresses
125 even for successful logins.
127 One must always assume that once an attacker has access to a user account,
128 the attacker can break root.
129 However, the reality is that in a well secured
130 and maintained system, access to a user account does not necessarily give the
131 attacker access to root.
132 The distinction is important because without access
133 to root the attacker cannot generally hide his tracks and may, at best, be
134 able to do nothing more than mess with the user's files or crash the machine.
135 User account compromises are very common because users tend not to take the
136 precautions that sysadmins take.
138 System administrators must keep in mind that there are potentially many ways
139 to break root on a machine.
140 The attacker may know the root password,
142 may find a bug in a root-run server and be able to break root over a network
143 connection to that server, or the attacker may know of a bug in an SUID-root
144 program that allows the attacker to break root once he has broken into a
146 If an attacker has found a way to break root on a machine,
147 the attacker may not have a need to install a backdoor.
148 Many of the root holes found and closed to date involve a considerable amount
149 of work by the attacker to clean up after himself, so most attackers do install
151 This gives you a convenient way to detect the attacker.
153 it impossible for an attacker to install a backdoor may actually be detrimental
154 to your security because it will not close off the hole the attacker used to
155 break in in the first place.
157 Security remedies should always be implemented with a multi-layered
159 approach and can be categorized as follows:
160 .Bl -enum -offset indent
162 Securing root and staff accounts
164 Securing root \(em root-run servers and SUID/SGID binaries
166 Securing user accounts
168 Securing the password file
170 Securing the kernel core, raw devices, and file systems
172 Quick detection of inappropriate changes made to the system
176 .Sh SECURING THE ROOT ACCOUNT AND SECURING STAFF ACCOUNTS
177 Do not bother securing staff accounts if you have not secured the root
179 Most systems have a password assigned to the root account.
181 first thing you do is assume that the password is
184 This does not mean that you should remove the password.
186 password is almost always necessary for console access to the machine.
187 What it does mean is that you should not make it possible to use the password
188 outside of the console or possibly even with a
191 For example, make sure that your PTYs are specified as being
196 so that direct root logins via
202 other login services such as
204 make sure that direct root logins are
205 disabled there as well.
206 Consider every access method \(em services such as
208 often fall through the cracks.
209 Direct root logins should only be allowed
210 via the system console.
212 Of course, as a sysadmin you have to be able to get to root, so we open up
214 But we make sure these holes require additional password
215 verification to operate.
216 One way to make root accessible is to add appropriate
217 staff accounts to the
221 The staff members placed in the
226 You should never give staff
229 access by putting them in the
231 group in their password entry.
232 Staff accounts should be placed in a
234 group, and then added to the
239 Only those staff members who actually need to have root access
240 should be placed in the
243 It is also possible, when using an
244 authentication method such as Kerberos, to use Kerberos's
246 file in the root account to allow a
248 to root without having to place anyone at all in the
252 may be the better solution since the
254 mechanism still allows an
255 intruder to break root if the intruder has gotten hold of your password
256 file and can break into a staff account.
260 is better than having nothing at all, it is not necessarily the safest
263 An indirect way to secure the root account is to secure your staff accounts
264 by using an alternative login access method and *'ing out the crypted password
265 for the staff accounts.
266 This way an intruder may be able to steal the password
267 file but will not be able to break into any staff accounts or root, even if
268 root has a crypted password associated with it (assuming, of course, that
269 you have limited root access to the console).
271 get into their staff accounts through a secure login mechanism such as
275 using a private/public
277 When you use something like Kerberos you generally must secure
278 the machines which run the Kerberos servers and your desktop workstation.
279 When you use a public/private key pair with SSH, you must generally secure
280 the machine you are logging in
282 (typically your workstation),
284 also add an additional layer of protection to the key pair by password
285 protecting the keypair when you create it with
288 to *-out the passwords for staff accounts also guarantees that staff members
289 can only log in through secure access methods that you have set up.
291 thus force all staff members to use secure, encrypted connections for
292 all their sessions which closes an important hole used by many intruders: that
293 of sniffing the network from an unrelated, less secure machine.
295 The more indirect security mechanisms also assume that you are logging in
296 from a more restrictive server to a less restrictive server.
298 if your main box is running all sorts of servers, your workstation should not
300 In order for your workstation to be reasonably secure
301 you should run as few servers as possible, up to and including no servers
302 at all, and you should run a password-protected screen blanker.
303 Of course, given physical access to
304 a workstation, an attacker can break any sort of security you put on it.
305 This is definitely a problem that you should consider but you should also
306 consider the fact that the vast majority of break-ins occur remotely, over
307 a network, from people who do not have physical access to your workstation or
310 Using something like Kerberos also gives you the ability to disable or
311 change the password for a staff account in one place and have it immediately
312 affect all the machines the staff member may have an account on.
314 member's account gets compromised, the ability to instantly change his
315 password on all machines should not be underrated.
316 With discrete passwords, changing a password on N machines can be a mess.
318 re-passwording restrictions with Kerberos: not only can a Kerberos ticket
319 be made to timeout after a while, but the Kerberos system can require that
320 the user choose a new password after a certain period of time
322 .Sh SECURING ROOT \(em ROOT-RUN SERVERS AND SUID/SGID BINARIES
323 The prudent sysadmin only runs the servers he needs to, no more, no less.
324 Be aware that third party servers are often the most bug-prone.
326 running an old version of
329 .Xr popper 8 Pq Pa ports/mail/popper
330 is like giving a universal root
331 ticket out to the entire world.
332 Never run a server that you have not checked
334 Many servers do not need to be run as root.
341 daemons can be run in special user
343 A sandbox is not perfect unless you go to a large amount of trouble, but the
344 onion approach to security still stands: if someone is able to break in
345 through a server running in a sandbox, they still have to break out of the
347 The more layers the attacker must break through, the lower the
348 likelihood of his success.
349 Root holes have historically been found in
350 virtually every server ever run as root, including basic system servers.
351 If you are running a machine through which people only log in via
358 then turn off those services!
361 now defaults to running
367 Another program which may be a candidate for running in a sandbox is
371 includes the arguments necessary to run
373 in a sandbox in a commented-out form.
374 Depending on whether you
375 are installing a new system or upgrading an existing system, the special
376 user accounts used by these sandboxes may not be installed.
378 sysadmin would research and implement sandboxes for servers whenever possible.
380 There are a number of other servers that typically do not run in sandboxes:
386 There are alternatives to
387 some of these, but installing them may require more work than you are willing
389 (the convenience factor strikes again).
390 You may have to run these
391 servers as root and rely on other mechanisms to detect break-ins that might
394 The other big potential root hole in a system are the SUID-root and SGID
395 binaries installed on the system.
396 Most of these binaries, such as
399 .Pa /bin , /sbin , /usr/bin ,
402 While nothing is 100% safe,
403 the system-default SUID and SGID binaries can be considered reasonably safe.
404 Still, root holes are occasionally found in these binaries.
406 was found in Xlib in 1998 that made
407 .Xr xterm 1 Pq Pa ports/x11/xterm
408 (which is typically SUID)
410 It is better to be safe than sorry and the prudent sysadmin will restrict SUID
411 binaries that only staff should run to a special group that only staff can
412 access, and get rid of
413 .Pq Dq Li "chmod 000"
414 any SUID binaries that nobody uses.
415 A server with no display generally does not need an
418 SGID binaries can be almost as dangerous.
419 If an intruder can break an SGID-kmem binary the
420 intruder might be able to read
422 and thus read the crypted password
423 file, potentially compromising any passworded account.
425 intruder who breaks group
427 can monitor keystrokes sent through PTYs,
428 including PTYs used by users who log in through secure methods.
432 group can write to almost any user's TTY.
434 is running a terminal
435 program or emulator with a keyboard-simulation feature, the intruder can
437 generate a data stream that causes the user's terminal to echo a command, which
438 is then run as that user.
439 .Sh SECURING USER ACCOUNTS
440 User accounts are usually the most difficult to secure.
442 draconian access restrictions on your staff and *-out their passwords, you
443 may not be able to do so with any general user accounts you might have.
445 you do have sufficient control then you may win out and be able to secure the
446 user accounts properly.
447 If not, you simply have to be more vigilant in your
448 monitoring of those accounts.
449 Use of SSH and Kerberos for user accounts is
450 more problematic due to the extra administration and technical support
451 required, but still a very good solution compared to a crypted password
453 .Sh SECURING THE PASSWORD FILE
454 The only sure fire way is to *-out as many passwords as you can and
455 use SSH or Kerberos for access to those accounts.
457 crypted password file
459 can only be read by root, it may
460 be possible for an intruder to obtain read access to that file even if the
461 attacker cannot obtain root-write access.
463 Your security scripts should always check for and report changes to
466 .Sx CHECKING FILE INTEGRITY
468 .Sh SECURING THE KERNEL CORE, RAW DEVICES, AND FILE SYSTEMS
469 If an attacker breaks root he can do just about anything, but there
470 are certain conveniences.
471 For example, most modern kernels have a packet sniffing device driver built in.
478 An intruder will commonly attempt to run a packet sniffer
479 on a compromised machine.
480 You do not need to give the intruder the
481 capability and most systems should not have the
485 But even if you turn off the
487 device, you still have
493 the intruder can still write to raw disk devices.
494 Also, there is another kernel feature called the module loader,
496 An enterprising intruder can use a KLD module to install
499 device or other sniffing device on a running kernel.
500 To avoid these problems you have to run
501 the kernel at a higher secure level, at least securelevel 1.
502 The securelevel can be set with a
508 set the securelevel to 1, write access to raw devices will be denied and
517 flag is set on critical startup binaries, directories, and
518 script files \(em everything that gets run up to the point where the securelevel
520 This might be overdoing it, and upgrading the system is much more
521 difficult when you operate at a higher secure level.
522 You may compromise and
523 run the system at a higher secure level but not set the
526 system file and directory under the sun.
527 Another possibility is to simply
533 It should be noted that being too draconian in
534 what you attempt to protect may prevent the all-important detection of an
536 .Sh CHECKING FILE INTEGRITY: BINARIES, CONFIG FILES, ETC
537 When it comes right down to it, you can only protect your core system
538 configuration and control files so much before the convenience factor
544 bit on most of the files in
548 is probably counterproductive because
549 while it may protect the files, it also closes a detection window.
551 last layer of your security onion is perhaps the most important \(em detection.
552 The rest of your security is pretty much useless (or, worse, presents you with
553 a false sense of safety) if you cannot detect potential incursions.
555 the job of the onion is to slow down the attacker rather than stop him
556 in order to give the detection layer a chance to catch him in
559 The best way to detect an incursion is to look for modified, missing, or
562 way to look for modified files is from another (often centralized)
563 limited-access system.
564 Writing your security scripts on the extra-secure limited-access system
565 makes them mostly invisible to potential attackers, and this is important.
566 In order to take maximum advantage you generally have to give the
567 limited-access box significant access to the other machines in the business,
568 usually either by doing a read-only NFS export of the other machines to the
569 limited-access box, or by setting up SSH keypairs to allow the limit-access
570 box to SSH to the other machines.
571 Except for its network traffic, NFS is
572 the least visible method \(em allowing you to monitor the file systems on each
573 client box virtually undetected.
575 limited-access server is connected to the client boxes through a switch,
576 the NFS method is often the better choice.
577 If your limited-access server
578 is connected to the client boxes through a hub or through several layers
579 of routing, the NFS method may be too insecure (network-wise) and using SSH
580 may be the better choice even with the audit-trail tracks that SSH lays.
582 Once you give a limit-access box at least read access to the client systems
583 it is supposed to monitor, you must write scripts to do the actual
585 Given an NFS mount, you can write scripts out of simple system
590 It is best to physically
592 the client-box files boxes at least once a
593 day, and to test control files such as those found in
598 When mismatches are found relative to the base MD5
599 information the limited-access machine knows is valid, it should scream at
600 a sysadmin to go check it out.
601 A good security script will also check for
602 inappropriate SUID binaries and for new or deleted files on system partitions
608 When using SSH rather than NFS, writing the security script is much more
610 You essentially have to
612 the scripts to the client box in order to run them, making them visible, and
613 for safety you also need to
615 the binaries (such as
617 that those scripts use.
620 daemon on the client box may already be compromised.
622 using SSH may be necessary when running over unsecure links, but it is also a
623 lot harder to deal with.
625 A good security script will also check for changes to user and staff members
626 access configuration files:
627 .Pa .rhosts , .shosts , .ssh/authorized_keys
628 and so forth, files that might fall outside the purview of the MD5 check.
630 If you have a huge amount of user disk space it may take too long to run
631 through every file on those partitions.
632 In this case, setting mount
633 flags to disallow SUID binaries on those partitions is a good
640 is what you want to look into.
641 I would scan them anyway at least once a
642 week, since the object of this layer is to detect a break-in whether or
643 not the break-in is effective.
648 is a relatively low-overhead feature of
649 the operating system which I recommend using as a post-break-in evaluation
651 It is especially useful in tracking down how an intruder has
652 actually broken into a system, assuming the file is still intact after
655 Finally, security scripts should process the log files and the logs themselves
656 should be generated in as secure a manner as possible \(em remote syslog can be
658 An intruder tries to cover his tracks, and log files are critical
659 to the sysadmin trying to track down the time and method of the initial
661 One way to keep a permanent record of the log files is to run
662 the system console to a serial port and collect the information on a
663 continuing basis through a secure machine monitoring the consoles.
665 A little paranoia never hurts.
666 As a rule, a sysadmin can add any number
667 of security features as long as they do not affect convenience, and
668 can add security features that do affect convenience with some added
670 Even more importantly, a security administrator should mix it up
671 a bit \(em if you use recommendations such as those given by this manual
672 page verbatim, you give away your methodologies to the prospective
673 attacker who also has access to this manual page.
674 .Sh SPECIAL SECTION ON DoS ATTACKS
675 This section covers Denial of Service attacks.
676 A DoS attack is typically a packet attack.
677 While there is not much you can do about modern spoofed
678 packet attacks that saturate your network, you can generally limit the damage
679 by ensuring that the attacks cannot take down your servers.
680 .Bl -enum -offset indent
682 Limiting server forks
684 Limiting springboard attacks (ICMP response attacks, ping broadcast, etc.)
689 A common DoS attack is against a forking server that attempts to cause the
690 server to eat processes, file descriptors, and memory until the machine
695 has several options to limit this sort of attack.
696 It should be noted that while it is possible to prevent a machine from going
697 down it is not generally possible to prevent a service from being disrupted
701 manual page carefully and pay specific attention
707 Note that spoofed-IP attacks will circumvent
712 so typically a combination of options must be used.
713 Some standalone servers have self-fork-limitation parameters.
718 .Fl OMaxDaemonChildren
719 option which tends to work much
720 better than trying to use
722 load limiting options due to the
725 .Va MaxDaemonChildren
726 parameter when you start
728 high enough to handle your expected load but not so high that the
729 computer cannot handle that number of
731 without falling on its face.
732 It is also prudent to run
737 .Pq Fl ODeliveryMode=queued
738 and to run the daemon
739 .Pq Dq Nm sendmail Fl bd
740 separate from the queue-runs
741 .Pq Dq Nm sendmail Fl q15m .
742 If you still want real-time delivery you can run the queue
743 at a much lower interval, such as
745 but be sure to specify a reasonable
746 .Va MaxDaemonChildren
749 to prevent cascade failures.
753 daemon can be attacked directly and it is strongly recommended that you use
756 option whenever possible, and the
760 You should also be fairly careful
761 with connect-back services such as tcpwrapper's reverse-identd, which can
762 be attacked directly.
763 You generally do not want to use the reverse-ident
764 feature of tcpwrappers for this reason.
766 It is a very good idea to protect internal services from external access
767 by firewalling them off at your border routers.
768 The idea here is to prevent
769 saturation attacks from outside your LAN, not so much to protect internal
770 services from network-based root compromise.
771 Always configure an exclusive
776 ports A, B, C, D, and M-Z
779 way you can firewall off all of your low ports except for certain specific
782 (if you are primary for a zone),
785 and other internet-accessible services.
786 If you try to configure the firewall the other
787 way \(em as an inclusive or permissive firewall, there is a good chance that you
790 a couple of services or that you will add a new internal
791 service and forget to update the firewall.
792 You can still open up the
793 high-numbered port range on the firewall to allow permissive-like operation
794 without compromising your low ports.
798 control the range of port numbers used for dynamic binding via the various
799 .Va net.inet.ip.portrange
801 .Pq Dq Li "sysctl net.inet.ip.portrange" ,
803 ease the complexity of your firewall's configuration.
804 I usually use a normal
805 first/last range of 4000 to 5000, and a hiport range of 49152 to 65535, then
806 block everything under 4000 off in my firewall
807 (except for certain specific
808 internet-accessible ports, of course).
810 Another common DoS attack is called a springboard attack \(em to attack a server
811 in a manner that causes the server to generate responses which then overload
812 the server, the local network, or some other machine.
813 The most common attack
814 of this nature is the ICMP PING BROADCAST attack.
815 The attacker spoofs ping
816 packets sent to your LAN's broadcast address with the source IP address set
817 to the actual machine they wish to attack.
818 If your border routers are not
819 configured to stomp on ping's to broadcast addresses, your LAN winds up
820 generating sufficient responses to the spoofed source address to saturate the
821 victim, especially when the attacker uses the same trick on several dozen
822 broadcast addresses over several dozen different networks at once.
823 Broadcast attacks of over a hundred and twenty megabits have been measured.
824 A second common springboard attack is against the ICMP error reporting system.
826 constructing packets that generate ICMP error responses, an attacker can
827 saturate a server's incoming network and cause the server to saturate its
828 outgoing network with ICMP responses.
829 This type of attack can also crash the
830 server by running it out of
832 especially if the server cannot drain the
833 ICMP responses it generates fast enough.
836 kernel has a new kernel
837 compile option called
839 which limits the effectiveness of these
841 The last major class of springboard attacks is related to
844 services such as the UDP echo service.
846 simply spoofs a UDP packet with the source address being server A's echo port,
847 and the destination address being server B's echo port, where server A and B
848 are both on your LAN.
849 The two servers then bounce this one packet back and
850 forth between each other.
851 The attacker can overload both servers and their
852 LANs simply by injecting a few packets in this manner.
854 exist with the internal chargen port.
855 A competent sysadmin will turn off all
857 .Xr inetd 8 Ns -internal
860 Spoofed packet attacks may also be used to overload the kernel route cache.

867 A spoofed packet attack that uses a random source IP will cause
868 the kernel to generate a temporary cached route in the route table, viewable

871 These routes typically timeout in 1600
873 If the kernel detects that the cached route table has gotten
874 too big it will dynamically reduce the

879 There are two problems: (1) The kernel does not react
880 quickly enough when a lightly loaded server is suddenly attacked, and (2) The
882 is not low enough for the kernel to survive a sustained attack.
883 If your servers are connected to the internet via a T3 or better it may be
884 prudent to manually override both

891 (unless you want to crash the machine :-)).
892 Setting both parameters to 2 seconds should be sufficient to protect the route
894 .Sh ACCESS ISSUES WITH KERBEROS AND SSH
895 There are a few issues with both Kerberos and SSH that need to be addressed
896 if you intend to use them.
897 Kerberos5 is an excellent authentication
898 protocol but the kerberized

905 Kerberos does not encrypt a session unless you use the
908 SSH encrypts everything by default.
910 SSH works quite well in every respect except when it is set up to
911 forward encryption keys.
912 What this means is that if you have a secure workstation holding
913 keys that give you access to the rest of the system, and you
916 unsecure machine, your keys become exposed.
917 The actual keys themselves are

921 login and if an attacker has broken root on the unsecure machine he can utilize
922 that port to use your keys to gain access to any other machine that your
