Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Restrict service account from direct interactive sessions Post 303024303 by bgstack15 on Friday 5th of October 2018 03:51:06 PM
Old 10-05-2018
I started a possible tool to watch the logs and deal with shell sessions, but it can be easily defeated with a ssh remoteserver /bin/bash.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# startdate: 2018-10-05 13:20
# Purpose: if a service account user logs in interactively, then kill it.
# incomplete. Can be foiled with: ssh -t clonetest210 /bin/bash
# improve: how to retrieve log entries to check

# Sample journalctl output.
# Oct 05 13:12:52 clonetest210 sshd[1868]: Starting session: shell on pts/3 for bgstack15-local from 10.200.18.240 port 59349 id 0

# Dependencies: sshd_config LogLevel VERBOSE
# journalctl -f -u sshd is not sufficient. I cannot tell what unit logs the notice seen above.

BADUSERS="(bgstack15-local|prophetess)"

journalctl -n100 | grep -oE "sshd\[.{1,10}\]: Starting session: shell on .* for ${BADUSERS} from .*" | awk '{print $1,$6,$8,$10}' | while read longpid tty tu srcip ;
do
   pid="$( echo "${longpid}" | tr -dc "[:digit:]" )"
   echo "Found login: ${tu} from pid ${pid} from ip ${srcip} and made terminal ${tty}"

   # investigate that current pid. if it exists and is sshd, kill it
   psout="$( ps -e -o pid:9,ppid:9,user:15,command:90 2>/dev/null | awk "\$1 == $pid" )"
   if test -n "${psout}" && echo "${psout}" | grep -qE "sshd:" ;
   then
      echo "need to warn user ${tu} on tty ${tty} and then kill pid ${pid}"
      printf "\n%s\n" "Interactive sessions are not allowed for user ${tu}." > "/dev/${tty}"
      sleep 0
      kill "${pid}"
   fi
done

SSH-KEYSIGN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    SSH-KEYSIGN(8)

NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for hostbased authentication SYNOPSIS
ssh-keysign DESCRIPTION
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature required during hostbased authentication with SSH protocol version 2. ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting HostbasedAuthentication to ``yes''. ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about hostbased authen- tication. FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled. /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, read- able only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if hostbased authentication is used. SEE ALSO
ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), ssh_config(5), sshd(8) AUTHORS
Markus Friedl <markus@openbsd.org> HISTORY
ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD 3.2. BSD
