No, it isn't. If no filenames were passed through the pipe to xargs, xargs should not exec rm. Something else is going on here, but it isn't clear to me what.

audit_submit
AUDIT_SUBMIT(3) BSD Library Functions Manual AUDIT_SUBMIT(3)NAME
audit_submit -- general purpose audit record submission
LIBRARY
Basic Security Module Library (libbsm, -lbsm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <bsm/libbsm.h>
int
audit_submit(short au_event, au_id_t auid, char status, int reterr, const char * restrict format, ...);
DESCRIPTION
The audit_submit() function provides a generic programming interface for audit record submission. This audit record will contain a header,
subject token, an optional text token, return token, and a trailer. The header will contain the event class specified by au_event. The sub-
ject token will be generated based on auid. The return token is dependent on the status and reterr arguments; unlike the argument to
au_to_return, reterr should be a local rather than BSM error number. Optionally, a text token will be created as a part of this record.
Text token output is under the control of a format string that specifies how subsequent arguments (or arguments accessed via the variable-
length argument facilities of stdarg(3)) are converted for output. If format is NULL, then no text token is created in the audit record.
It should be noted that audit_submit() assumes that setaudit(2), or setaudit_addr(2) has already been called. As a direct result, the termi-
nal ID for the subject will be retrieved from the kernel via getaudit(2), or getaudit_addr(2).
RETURN VALUES
If successful, audit_submit will return zero. Otherwise a -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
EXAMPLES
#include <bsm/audit.h>
#include <bsm/libbsm.h>
#include <bsm/audit_uevents.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <errno.h>
void
audit_bad_su(char *from_login, char *to_login)
{
struct auditinfo_addr aia;
struct auditinfo ai;
au_id_t aid;
int error;
error = getaudit_addr(&aia, sizeof(aia));
if (error < 0 && errno == ENOSYS) {
error = getaudit(&ai);
if (error < 0)
err(1, "getaudit");
aid = ai.ai_auid;
} else if (error < 0)
err(1, "getaudit_addr");
else
aid = aia.ai_auid;
error = audit_submit(AUE_su, aid, EPERM, 1,
"bad su from %s to %s", from_login, to_login);
if (error != 0)
err(1, "audit_submit");
}
Will generate the following audit record:
header,94,1,su(1),0,Mon Apr 17 23:23:59 2006, + 271 msec
subject,root,root,wheel,root,wheel,652,652,0,0.0.0.0
text,bad su from from csjp to root
return,failure : Operation not permitted,1
trailer,94
SEE ALSO auditon(2), getaudit(2), libbsm(3), stdarg(3)HISTORY
The audit_submit() function first appeared in OpenBSM version 1.0. OpenBSM 1.0 was introduced in FreeBSD 7.0.
