[Security Manager Replacement] Strengthen OS core security via systemd configuration

[kumargu]

Please describe the end goal of this project

The OS core's security in absence of security manager can be strengthened by using a stronger systemd unit configuration. We can imagine this as sandboxing via systemd protecting itself from vulnerability in core or untrusted code (plugins). However, this is not a complete replacement of security manager, a part of it like controlling access to egress network, controlling access to specific file locations can be sought as a replacement. Some of the newly introduced configs will add more security than what is being offered by security manager.

A list of systemd unit configs which could be useful to restrict access to sys resources, lock down network access, restrict system call etc. This is a fairly exhaustive list but not a complete list -- such as access to socket ip addresses are not exhaustive. Similarly, some of them could be also removed depending on the issues seen during actual integration.

nice to see this work here, especially sandboxing things such as filesystem with systemd fills a big gap that security manager was doing, and IMO does it in a much better way.

I'd be curious to see change in reported exposure level from systemd-analyze security opensearch.service with your improvements.

[kumargu]

thanks @rmuir. I will post the results from systemd-analyze security opensearch.service.

Thanks @kumargu, I think this approach is super promising.

It does raise some questions around testing and maintaining a properly secured systemd config. We'll need to evaluate our integration testing and release pipeline to ensure we have proper coverage of this, as the evolving code base may sometimes (rarely I hope) require tweaks to this config.

[rmuir]

You don't need to have all the SystemCallFilter= entries. Most of what you have listed is already excluded via @system-service.

i'd nuke all the CapabilityBoundingSet entries, just replace with CapabilityBoundingSet=. I'd set NoNewPrivileges=true along the same lines of not allowing escalation.

Same goes with your RestrictNamespaces= entries, they are not needed. it is enough to just set RestrictNamespaces=true.

[kumargu]

Ack @rmuir, I'll make changes as suggested by you, all your comments makes sense to me. I am going to try out the actual integration tomorrow and post results.

(edit) 3/12/24

Updated the initially proposed configs based on rmuir@ comments. Haven't yet changed the CapabilityBoundingSet since I need to read a little bit of it, rest all suggestions are incorporated.

[kumargu]

@andrross -- thanks for bringing up the testing part of it. I will think more about it. At the moment, I could think of having a test.service which gets spawned in test suite and verifies that it doesn't have access to restricted resources, e.g; no read/ write access to var/log/elasticsearch.

I don't think we will be able to get a full coverage, but we can cover for the most critical ones. And yes, it would be rare we'd be changing the configs.

[andrross]

thanks for bringing up the testing part of it. I will think more about it. At the moment, I could think of having a test.service which gets spawned in test suite and verifies that it doesn't have access to restricted resources

@kumargu That's one aspect of the testing. That other side is ensuring that the OpenSearch software doesn't need access to something that the systemd config restricts. I'm not sure where in our testing pipeline we ever launch the OpenSearch process with systemd. An extreme example: you could block port 9200 in the systemd config and I think ./gradlew check would still pass because the process is never launched with systemd as a part of that test suite. We need to make sure that as the software evolves going forward that what the software needs access to stays in sync with what the systemd config allows.

[rmuir]

yes, you need to test systemd service works (using vm or container).

But lack of testing for the systemd service is nothing new with this issue, it is a pre-existing condition as there is already a systemd service being shipped, just with an EXPOSED configuration.

[rmuir]

and the change will come anyway, probably via distros if you dont do it yourself (e.g. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SystemdSecurityHardening). Distros will probably just let end-users be the testers, so you might as well get ahead of it

[reta]

we actually used to have full fledged disto tests (see please [1]), driven by VMs and vagrant, but I am not sure it is in a good shape now, it has not been run for a looong time

[1] #538

[rmuir]

yeah, if you just want to test systemd service unit, you can use container for that (you have to hold it special: happy to help as i do this at dayjob). If all you are shipping is a service file, that's enough. Perversely, you have to give systemd container special privileges otherwise it can't actually implement the very sandboxing you wish to test, so you have to supply some special docker flags. See https://systemd.io/CONTAINER_INTERFACE/#what-you-shouldnt-do for some background.

if you are also shipping packages (such as RPM, DEB, etc), you can still use same approach, to also check that package and its dependencies install/remove/upgrade correctly, too, all within container. So it gets you pretty far, from upstream project perspective I think its the way to go.

VM is a bit extreme: of course you need it if you want to also test full integration with shenanigans of distro kernel, since container cannot do that: but it makes life so unfriendly to developers and CI systems that you end out with tests not being run at all or not being maintained like #538

[rmuir]

Here's example docker-compose.yml to get you started. In practice you might use testcontainer for java integration, so you'd pass the equivalent flags to docker, but this goes healthy and plumbs logs to stdout and illustrates how to do it with amazonlinux 2023, installing the RPM:

---
services:
  # self-contained systemd example: run 'docker-compose up' to see it
  amazonlinux:
    build:
      dockerfile_inline: |
        FROM amazonlinux:2023
        # install systemd
        RUN dnf -y install systemd && dnf clean all
        # in practice, you'd COPY in the RPM you want to test right here
        RUN dnf -y install https://artifacts.opensearch.org/releases/bundle/opensearch/2.18.0/opensearch-2.18.0-linux-x64.rpm && dnf clean all
        # no colors
        ENV SYSTEMD_COLORS=0
        # no escapes
        ENV SYSTEMD_URLIFY=0
        # explicitly specify docker virtualization
        ENV container=docker
        # for debugging systemd issues in container, you want this, but it is very loud!
        # ENV SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug
        # plumb journald logs to stdout
        COPY <<EOF /etc/systemd/journald.conf
        [Journal]
        ForwardToConsole=yes
        EOF
        # start systemd as PID 1
        CMD ["/sbin/init"]
        # enable opensearch service
        RUN systemctl enable opensearch
        # shutdown systemd properly
        STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3
        # disable security plugin, as i don't configure SSL (but could be done with openssl or whatever right here)
        RUN echo "plugins.security.disabled: true" >> /etc/opensearch/opensearch.yml
    # provide /dev/console for journal logs to go to stdout
    tty: true
    # capabilities to allow systemd to sandbox
    cap_add:

And here's what the output looks like on docker-compose up:

[kumargu]

Thanks for the pointers. I am going to try it the full integration today.

[rmuir]

Yeah, it helps to test it. you can already see small problems with the systemd unit. For example it logs with tag systemd-entrypoint which is too vague. It is just the default because it is the name of the process.

I would set SyslogIdentifier=opensearch

[kumargu]

I would set SyslogIdentifier=opensearch

agreed. will address it.

[kumargu]

sorry for the delay, I will come back to this in a week.
