I don't think this daemon is a likely target of attack. But I think it's goot to try and keep the overall score from "systemd-analyze security" as low as possible. My tests show that it seems to work OK with the following settings. I think that more testing is needed before adding all of them. But some of them are low risk like restricting to AF_UNIX and restricting capabilities and the system call architecture. [Service] CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_SYS_ADMIN # needs @resources SystemCallFilter=~@cpu-emulation @debug @raw-io @reboot @swap @obsolete @privileged SystemCallArchitectures=native UMask=077 NoNewPrivileges=true ProtectKernelLogs=true ProtectControlGroups=true ProtectKernelModules=true RestrictNamespaces=true RestrictSUIDSGID=true LockPersonality=true ProtectHostname=true ProtectKernelTunables=true RestrictAddressFamilies=AF_UNIX
Hello Russel Cooker, I think this is a good idea, but I think it's a much better idea if we have upstream maintain this along the code changes they make which might influence what settings you need/want. Upstream provides the udisks2.service file after all. Could you create an upstream issue or even pull request? https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks [...] I'm guessing a topic for discussion upstream will be in which systemd version respective option was introduced, what version is the minimum required one upstream thinks is acceptable setting as a requirement and making sure unsupported options is gracefully ignored. If you know the answer to any of this for the above options it might be good to include from the get go. Regards, Andreas Henriksson
