Note

Do not use this role without first testing in a non-operational environment.

Note

There is a SLSA artifact present under the slsa action workflow for verification.

        suid_sgid_permissions: false

Note regarding UFW firewall rules

Instead of resetting ufw every run and by doing so causing network traffic disruption, the role deletes every ufw rule without comment: ansible managed task parameter and value.

The role also sets default deny policies, which means that firewall rules needs to be created for any additional ports except those specified in the sshd_ports and ufw_outgoing_traffic variables.

Task Execution and Structure

See STRUCTURE.md for tree of the role structure.

Role testing

See TESTING.md.

Role Variables with defaults

./defaults/main/aide.yml

install_aide: true
aide_checksums: sha512

If install_aide: true then AIDE will be installed and configured.

aide_checksums modifies the AIDE Checksums variable. Note that the Checksums variable might not be present depending on distribution.

./defaults/main/auditd.yml

auditd_apply_audit_rules: true
auditd_action_mail_acct: root
auditd_admin_space_left_action: suspend
auditd_disk_error_action: suspend
auditd_disk_full_action: suspend
auditd_flush: sync
auditd_max_log_file: 20
auditd_max_log_file_action: rotate
auditd_mode: 1
auditd_num_logs: 5
auditd_space_left: 75
auditd_space_left_action: email
grub_audit_backlog_cmdline: audit_backlog_limit=8192
grub_audit_cmdline: audit=1

Enable auditd at boot using Grub.

When auditd_apply_audit_rules: 'yes', the role applies the auditd rules from the included template file.

auditd_action_mail_acct should be a valid email address or alias.

auditd_admin_space_left_action defines what action to take when the system has detected that it is low on disk space. suspend will cause the audit daemon to stop writing records to the disk.

auditd_flush: sync tells the audit daemon to keep both the data and meta-data fully sync'd with every write to disk.

auditd_max_log_file_action sets what action to take when the system has detected that the max file size limit has been reached. E.g. the rotate option will cause the audit daemon to rotate the logs. The keep_logs option is similar to rotate except it does not use the num_logs setting. This prevents audit logs from being overwritten.

auditd_space_left_action tells the system what action to take when the system has detected that it is low on disk space. email means that it will send a warning to the email account specified in action_mail_acct as well as sending the message to syslog.

auditd_mode sets auditd failure mode, 0=silent 1=printk 2=panic.

Blocked kernel modules.

Setting block_blacklisted: true will block, or disable, any automatic loading of blacklisted kernel modules. The reasoning behind this is that a blacklisted module can still be loaded manually with modprobe module_name. Using install module_name /bin/true prevents this.

This will affect modules that the distribution has blacklisted as part of its default setup, or that were added manually at some point, by anyone with access to your system. Please verify the affected modules before turning this on by running modprobe --showconfig | grep '^blacklist'

Note

Disabling the usb-storage module will disable all USB storage devices. If such devices are needed USBGuard, or a similar tool, should be configured accordingly.

Note

CASignatureAlgorithms, Ciphers, HostKeyAlgorithms, KexAlgorithms and MACs will be configured as defined by cryptographic policies if /etc/crypto-policies/config exists and set_crypto_policy: true.

For a explanation of the options not described below, please read https://man.openbsd.org/sshd_config.

Only the network(s) defined in sshd_admin_net are allowed to connect to sshd_ports. Note that additional rules need to be set up in order to allow access to additional services.

OpenSSH login is allowed only for users whose primary group or supplementary group list matches one of the patterns in sshd_allow_groups. OpenSSH login is also allowed for users in sshd_allow_users. To do the opposite and deny access, use the sshd_deny_groups and sshd_deny_users parameters, which in turn have priority over the previous parameters.

sshd_allow_agent_forwarding specifies whether ssh-agent(1) forwarding is permitted.

sshd_allow_tcp_forwarding specifies whether TCP forwarding is permitted. The available options are true|yes or all to allow TCP forwarding, false|no to prevent all TCP forwarding, local to allow local (from the perspective of ssh(1)) forwarding only or remote to allow remote forwarding only.

sshd_authentication_methods specifies the authentication methods that must be successfully completed in order to grant access to a user.

sshd_log_level gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages.

sshd_max_auth_tries and sshd_max_sessions specifies the maximum number of SSH authentication attempts permitted per connection and the maximum number of open shell, login or subsystem (e.g. sftp) sessions permitted per network connection.

sshd_password_authentication specifies whether password authentication is allowed.

sshd_ports specifies the port(s) number that sshd(8) listens on.

sshd_required_rsa_size, RequiredRSASize, will only be set if SSH version is higher than 9.1.

sshd_config_d_force_clear force clear directory /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d. Default: false.

sshd_config_force_replace force replace configuration file /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Default: false.

Note

By default, the role checks whether the directory /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d exists and whether it is linked via the Include parameter in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file, if so, an additional configuration file is created in / etc/ssh/sshd_config.d, if not, the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file is overwritten.

Warning

If any sshd_match_(users|groups|addresses|local_ports) or sshd_sftp_only_group parameters is set, the value true will be implicit.

sshd_host_keys_files host keys for sshd. If empty ['/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key', '/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key', '/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key'] will be used, as far as supported by the installed sshd version.

sshd_host_keys_owner set owner of host keys for sshd. Default: root. sshd_host_keys_group set group of host keys for sshd. Default: root. sshd_host_keys_mode set permission of host keys for sshd. Default: "0600".

sshd_match_users add a conditional block for users. If all of the criteria on the Match line are satisfied, the rules/parameters defined on the following lines override those set in the global section of the config file, until either another Match line or the end of the file.

Expected configuration structure:

sshd_match_users:
  - user: <username>
    rules:
      - <parameter sshd> <value>
      - <parameter sshd> <value>

Example, allow ubuntu user access through password authentication and allow ansible user access without banner:

sshd_match_users:
  - user: ubuntu
    rules:
      - AllowUsers ubuntu
      - AuthenticationMethods password
      - PasswordAuthentication yes
  - user: ansible
    rules:
      - AllowUsers ansible
      - Banner none

sshd_match_groups add a conditional block for groups. More details and examples in the parameter description sshd_match_users.

Expected configuration structure:

sshd_match_groups:
  - group: <groupname>
    rules:
      - <parameter sshd> <value>
      - <parameter sshd> <value>

sshd_match_addresses add a conditional block for adddresses. More details and examples in the parameter description sshd_match_users.

Expected configuration structure:

sshd_match_addresses:
  - address: <ip>
    rules:
      - <parameter sshd> <value>
      - <parameter sshd> <value>

sshd_match_local_ports add a conditional block for ports. More details and examples in the parameter description sshd_match_users.

Expected configuration structure:

sshd_match_ports:
  - port: <port>
    rules:
      - <parameter sshd> <value>
      - <parameter sshd> <value>

sshd_print_pam_motd specifies whether printing of the MOTD via pam (Debian and Ubuntu). Default: false.

sshd_sftp_enabled specifies whether enabled sftp configuration. Default: true. sshd_sftp_subsystem Set external subsystem for file transfer daemon. Default: internal-sftp -f LOCAL6 -l INFO. sshd_sftp_only_group specifies the name of the group that will have access restricted to the sftp service only. Default: "". sshd_sftp_only_chroot specifies group access will be via chroot isolation. Default: true. sshd_sftp_only_chroot_dir specifies the chroot directory. Accepts the tokens %% (a literal %), %h (home directory of the user), and %u (username). Default: "%h".

sshd_syslog_facility set the facility code that is used when logging messages from sshd.Default: AUTH.
