Ebpfguard
Ebpfguard is a library for managing Linux security policies. It is based on LSM hooks, but without necessity to write any kernel modules or eBPF programs directly. It allows to write policies in Rust (or YAML) in user space.
It's based on eBPF and Aya library, but takes away the need to use them directly.
Usage example
Deny mount operation for all users.
const BPF_MAPS_PATH: &str = "/sys/fs/bpf/example_sb_mount";
// Create a directory where ebpfguard policy manager can store its BPF
// objects (maps).
std::fs::create_dir_all(BPF_MAPS_PATH)?;
// Create a policy manager.
let mut policy_manager = PolicyManager::new(BPF_MAPS_PATH)?;
// Attach the policy manager to the mount LSM hook.
let mut sb_mount = policy_manager.attach_sb_mount()?;
// Get the receiver end of the alerts channel (for the `file_open` LSM
// hook).
let mut sb_mount_rx = sb_mount.alerts().await?;
// Define policies which deny mount operations for all processes (except
// for the specified subject, if defined).
sb_mount
.add_policy(SbMount {
subject: PolicySubject::All,
allow: false,
})
.await?;
if let Some(alert) = sb_mount_rx.recv().await {
info!(
"sb_mount alert: pid={} subject={}",
alert.pid, alert.subject
);
}
