1 1 of 7 12/1/2014 1:14 PM This is some sort of part two of Creating a baseline Ubuntu server ( a baseline ubuntu server/), so read that first and check back afterwards. In this post we ll lock down the server even more, adding google authenticator and auditd. Let s start with modifying /etc/login.defs: LOG_OK_LOGINS yes SULOG_FILE /var/log/sulog Set the default shell to /bin/false in both /etc/default/useradd and /etc/adduser.conf. Modify /etc/skel/.bashrc: HISTSIZE=10 HISTFILESIZE=0 Stricter /etc/fstab mount options: ~# egrep v "# swap" /etc/fstab awk '{print $2,$4}' / errors=remount ro /boot defaults,nodev,nosuid,noexec /home defaults,nodev,nosuid,noexec /usr defaults,nodev /var/log defaults,nodev,noexec /tmp defaults,nosuid,nodev,noatime,size=100m,mode=1700 /var/tmp defaults,nosuid,nodev,noatime,noexec,size=100m,mode=1700 Remove suid bits: chmod s /bin/fusermount /bin/mount /bin/su /bin/umount /usr/bin /bsd write /usr/bin/chage /usr/bin/chfn /usr/bin/chsh /usr/bin/mlocate /usr/bin/mtr /usr/bin/newgrp /usr/bin/traceroute6.iputils /usr/bin/wall Verify that all network connected services except sshd are in Apparmor enforce mode with apparmor_status verbose

2 2 of 7 12/1/2014 1:14 PM netstat anlp inet We ll be using the Google authenticator for two factor authentication. sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install libpam googleauthenticator Run google authenticator as the user with sudo. Choose Disallow multiple uses of the same authentication token, Do not increase the time window and Enable rate limiting. Add auth required pam_google_authenticator.so to the top of the Primary block in /etc/pam.d/common auth Since we got an encrypted $HOME we need to move the pam_google_authenticator.so secret. auth required pam_google_authenticator.so secret=/etc/auth/${user} /.google_authenticator ( Set up the directories: ~# mkdir p /etc/auth/${user} ~# chmod 0755 /etc/auth ~# chown R ${USER}:${USER} /etc/auth/${user} ~# chmod R 0700 /etc/auth/${user} ~# cat /home/${user}/.google_authenticator > /etc/auth/${user} /.google_authenticator ~# chmod 0600 /etc/auth/${user}/.google_authenticator Don t forget to install and set up the Google authenticator app.

3 3 of 7 12/1/2014 1:14 PM And finally we ll install auditd The Linux Audit daemon. ~# sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install auditd Edit /etc/default/grub to include audit=1 as part of GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="audit=1" ~# update grub Add auditd rules to /etc/audit/audit.rules: # # Rules grabbed from /4629/simple example auditd configuration ( exampleauditd configuration) # First rule delete all D # Increase the buffers to survive stress events. # Make this bigger for busy system # Increase the buffers to survive stress events. # Make this bigger for busy systems b 1024 ## special files a exit,always F arch=b64 S mknod S mknodat k specialfiles ## Mount operations a exit,always F arch=b64 S mount S umount2 k mount ## changes to the time ## a exit,always F arch=b64 S adjtimex S settimeofday S clock_settime k time ## cron configuration & scheduled jobs w /etc/cron.allow p wa k cron w /etc/cron.deny p wa k cron w /etc/cron.d/ p wa k cron w /etc/cron.daily/ p wa k cron w /etc/cron.hourly/ p wa k cron w /etc/cron.monthly/ p wa k cron w /etc/cron.weekly/ p wa k cron w /etc/crontab p wa k cron w /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ k cron ## user, group, password databases w /etc/group p wa k etcgroup w /etc/passwd p wa k etcpasswd w /etc/gshadow k etcgroup w /etc/shadow k etcpasswd w /etc/security/opasswd k opasswd
