Ouch. Can’t please everyone I guess. ________________________________ From: Michał Purzyński <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, November 21, 2019 5:10 PM To: [email protected] Cc: venkatesh bandari; zeek Subject: Re: [Zeek] af_packet TBH I see quite a few reasons why plugins and Zeek should not be installed like that article describes. - everything should be packaged. This includes Zeek and all plugins, each as a separate package. Running zkg to install plugin on production will result in building code on the server (and we don't even have compilers there). - the sudo + pip install means you now have python packages installed for the entire OS but outside of the OS control and packaging, making vulnerability management difficult (most likely never detected, forgotten and left there) - looks like zeek user can sudo to root. There's no need for that dangerous capability. - cap_net_admin is not needed and dangerous - assigning any capabilities to zeekctl is not needed and also dangerous - and those 3 affiliation links at the bottom...
