UBTU-24-900350 - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS must generate audit records for successful/unsuccessful uses of the delete_module syscall.
Information
Without generating audit records specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one.Audit records can be generated from various components within the information system (e.g., module or policy filter).
Satisfies: SRG-OS-000064-GPOS-00033, SRG-OS-000477-GPOS-00222
Solution
Configure the audit system to generate an audit event for any successful/unsuccessful use of the "delete_module" syscall.Add or update the following rules in the "/etc/audit/rules.d/stig.rules" file:
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S delete_module -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=-1 -k module_chng
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S delete_module -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=-1 -k module_chng
Note: For 32-bit architectures, only the 32-bit specific entries are required.
To reload the rules file, issue the following command:
$ sudo augenrules --load
