Control: 1.1.3 Ensure auditing is configured for the Docker daemon

Description

Audit all Docker daemon activities. As well as auditing the normal Linux file system and system calls, you should also audit the Docker daemon. Because this daemon runs with root privileges. It is very important to audit its activities and usage.

Remediation

You should add rules for the Docker daemon. For example: Add the line below to the /etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules file:

-w /usr/bin/dockerd -k docker

Then, restart the audit daemon using the following command

systemctl restart auditd

Default Value

By default, the Docker daemon is not audited.

Usage

Run the control in your terminal:

powerpipe control run docker_compliance.control.cis_v160_1_1_3

Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:

powerpipe login
powerpipe control run docker_compliance.control.cis_v160_1_1_3 --share

SQL

This control uses a named query:

with os_output as (
  select
    btrim(stdout_output, E' \n\r\t') as os,
    _ctx ->> 'connection_name' as os_conn
  from
    exec_command
  where
    command = 'uname -s'
), hostname as (
  select
    btrim(stdout_output, E' \n\r\t') as host,
    _ctx ->> 'connection_name' as host_conn,
    _ctx
  from
    exec_command
  where
    command = 'hostname'
),

 linux_output as (
  select
    stdout_output,
    _ctx ->> 'connection_name' as conn
  from
    exec_command,
    os_output
  where
    os_conn = _ctx ->> 'connection_name'
    and command = 'sudo -n auditctl -l | grep /usr/bin/dockerd'
)
select
  host as resource,
  case
    when os.os ilike '%Darwin%' then 'skip'
    when o.stdout_output = '' then 'alarm'
    else 'ok'
  end as status,
  case
    when os.os ilike '%Darwin%' then host || ' /usr/bin/dockerd does not exist on ' || os.os || ' OS.'
    when o.stdout_output = '' then host || ' Docker daemon auditing is not configured.'
    else host || ' Docker daemon auditing is configured.'
  end as reason
  , h._ctx ->> 'connection_name' as connection_name
from
  hostname as h,
  os_output as os,
  linux_output as o
where
  os.os_conn = h.host_conn
  and os.os_conn = o.conn;
