This will remove the use of current time for syslog.time and introduce
a new column called 'datetime'.
Events now uses an "optimize_id" alongside "optimize" to prevent returning
colliding events added within the same second as the previous genTable call.
This commit bumps the third-party SQLite to the 3.14.0 pre-release (18:59).
With 3.14.0 the LIKE and EQUALS constraint operators may be mixed within a
query. Previously these would fail to produce a valid set.
As part of the support, each virtual table should choose to bypass rowid-based
deduplication using the new "WITHOUT ROWID" create table epilog. This will
be appended to the schema if the table defines a PRIMARY KEY using index=True.
Table options includes a change to the Registry::call API for TablePlugins.
When requesting route information or the 'columns' action, a new 'op' key is included.
This commit adds mobile device crashes to the list of crash logs parsed by the Crashes table as well as adding a lamdba to improve code reuse. The commit also adds a 'type' column to the table to indicate what kind of log this crash log was.
Renamed the crash_log table to crashes for future abstraction to other
operating systems. Also fixed how the table was parsing the most recent
stack trace and the registers. Register values are now all parsed into
one column 'registers', which will be a space delimited string of the
form:
register:value register:value ... register:value
in order to best allow for OS abstraction.
It is often helpful to know the local timezone of the machine. For this use
local_timezone, as the base timezone will use local or UTC depending on the
--utc flag. This will be default=UTC in osquery 1.8.0.
The datetime field is added to mimic ISO 8601, along with iso_8601.
The timestamp field remains as the time stamp used for logging (within osquery)
and commonly outside of osquery. The goal for adding multiple representations
is to allow joining/augmenting of other tables.
Beginning in version 1.8.0 all time uses will converge on an osquery-provided
getUnixTime() API call that returns, by default, UNIX time integers converted
to UTC/GMT. The 'time' table will respond with the parsed time for the
configuration. If the timezone is not UTC then osquery is using localtime.
This configuration option will affect the 'unix_time' response in the 'time'
table. Because of this configurable-effect the table is extended to include
'local_time' which is always the system local UNIX time.
Added a table that parses out some of the informaiton in the OS X logs
stored in /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports as well as
/Users/<user>/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports
This commit adds an event-based virtual table implementation for
querying the linux syslog. It introduces an event publisher that
attaches to a named pipe to ingest CSV formatted syslog forwarded from
rsyslogd. An event subscriber/virtual table makes these log lines
available for queries. Currently, no additional processing is done on
the input data besides parsing.
Using this table requires a properly configured rsyslogd. Documentation
for this configuration is forthcoming in the wiki.
1. Table implementations (spec files) can mark the table as 'cachable'.
2. Cached results depend on the shortest/quickest interval of scheduled
queries that act on results of the table.
3. The table API generator blocks caching on index/additional/required
table column options.
If the option of remembering known Wi-Fi networks is enabled on a system,
they are persisted to disk as a preferences property list file.
This table is populated by parsing that file.
The refactor of config/packs was initiated because event subscribers needed
a method for toggling `::init` based on some configurable option. In the case
of auditd, turning on the support with `--disable_audit=false` used to start
auditing the EXECVE syscall. It was understandable that this would cause
latency based on the number of processes executing per measure of time.
A new `socket_events` table will do the same but for `bind` and `connect`. These
are less-obvious and for now, require a scan of /proc for socket tuples. In the
future this file descriptor to socket tuple will be faster.
This commit contains the features specified in #1390 as well as a
refactoring of the general osquery configuration code.
The API for the config plugins hasn't changed, although now there's a
`genPack` method that config plugins can implement. If a plugin doesn't
implement `genPack`, then the map<string, string> format cannot be used.
The default config plugin, the filesystem plugin, now implements
`genPack`, so existing query packs code will continue to work as it
always has.
Now many other config plugins can implement custom pack handling for
what makes sense in their context. `genPacks` is not a pure virtual, so
it doesn't have to be implemented in your plugin if you don't want to
use it. Also, more importantly, all config plugins can use the standard
inline pack format if they want to use query packs. Which is awesome.
For more information, refer to #1390, the documentation and the doxygen
comments included with this pull requests, as well as the following
example config which is now supported, regardless of what config plugin
you're using:
```json
{
"options": {
"enable_monitor": "true"
},
"packs": {
"core_os_monitoring": {
"version": "1.4.5",

"select pid from processes where name like '%osqueryd%';"
],
"queries": {
"kernel_modules": {
"query": "SELECT name, size FROM kernel_modules;",
"interval": 600
},
"system_controls": {
"query": "SELECT * FROM system_controls;",

},

"query": "SELECT * FROM osquery_registry;",
"interval": 600,

},
"schedule": {
"query": "select name, interval, executions, output_size, wall_time, (user_time/executions) as avg_user_time, (system_time/executions) as avg_system_time, average_memory from osquery_schedule;",
"interval": 60,
"snapshot": true
}
}
}
}
}
```
The `osquery_packs` table was modified to remove the superfluous
columns which could already have been found in `osquery_schedule`. Two
more columns were added in their place, representing stats about pack's
discovery query execution history.
Notably, the internal API for the `osquery::Config` class has changed
rather dramatically as apart of the refactoring. We think this is an
improvement. While strictly adhering to the osquery config plugin
interface will have avoided any compatibility errors, advanced users may
notice compilation errors if they access config data directly. All
internal users of the config have obviously been updated. Yet another
reason to merge your code into mainline; we update it for you when we
refactor!
When strings match they will be populated into the "strings" column of
the table. The format is identifier:offset.
When a matching rule has tags defined the tags will be put into the
"tags" column of the table in a comma separated list.
We now have a Publisher to report on disk events and its metadata,
using the DiskArbitration framework on OS X. Currently disk appearance
and disappearance events are published for both physical and
virtual disks (DMG files). On an event trigger, disk properties are
parsed and that metadata is reported along with the action.
The Subscriber subscribes to virtual disk events currently.
This closes#1103.
This infomation is primarily related to the performance of processor
cores. The information given constitutes only a small portion of
the information in the model specific register, but this table
has been designed so that more information may easily be added.
The table requires osquery be run as the root, and that the msr
kernel module is loaded. The table reads the msr data from /dev
1. Example queries will run with an (optional) integration test.
2. Fix bad accesses with OS X package BOMs
3. Move spec files from ./osquery/tables/specs to ./specs
4. Remove server parsers (netlib) from client builds.
