Hiroshi Tsunoda Expires: October 7, 2015 [Page 1] Internet Draft syslogMIB April 2015 Abstract This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB), the Syslog MIB, for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, the Syslog MIB will be used to monitor and control syslog applications. Table of Contents 1. The Internet-Standard Management Framework .... 3 2.

The Internet-Standard Management Framework For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of RFC 3410 [RFC3410]. Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580]. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119 [RFC2119]. 2. Background Operating systems, processes and applications, collectively termed "facilities" in the following, generate messages indicating their own status or the occurrence of events. These messages are handled by what has come to be known as the syslog application[RFC5424]. A syslog application sends and/or receives syslog messages. The reader is referred to [RFC5424] for a description of the various roles of a syslog application viz. "sender", "receiver" and "relay". The discussion in this document in general applies to a generic syslog application. For special cases the specific role of the syslog application will be mentioned. This document defines a set of managed objects (MOs) that can be used to monitor a group of syslog applications. The SYSLOG-MIB can be used in conjunction with other MIB modules - in particular the Host Resources MIB[RFC2790]. The generic process related matters e.g. control and monitoring for status, resource usage etc. can be serviced by the corresponding entries in the Host Resources MIB. Hiroshi Tsunoda Expires: October 7, 2015 [Page 3] Internet Draft syslogMIB April 2015 +------+ Syslog message ----->| App1 | +------+ +------+ Syslog message ----->| App2 |------> Syslog message +------+ +------+ | App3 |------> Syslog message +------+ App1: Syslog collector ( syslog receiver) App2: Syslog relay ( syslog receiver, syslog sender) App3: Syslog originator (syslog sender) Fig.1 Syslog applications modeled by the SYSLOG-MIB The syslog applications modeled by the SYSLOG-MIB are shown in Fig.1. A syslog receiver receives syslog messages. A syslog sender sends syslog messages to other syslog applications. A syslog relay forwards some of the received syslog messages to other syslog applications. A syslog receiver receives a syslog message and processes it. The processing will depend on the internal configuration and may involve relaying the message to one or more syslog applications. Note that a syslog application may have multiple roles. Multiple syslog applications may co-exist on the same host. 3. The MIB Design. The purpose of the SYSLOG-MIB is to allow the monitoring of a group of syslog applications. This requires managed objects representing the following elements. o The configuration and status related details of each syslog application. o The statistics on syslog messages received, processed locally, relayed by each syslog application. The MIB contains three subtrees. o The syslogNotifications subtree defines the set of notifications that will be used to asynchronously report Hiroshi Tsunoda Expires: October 7, 2015 [Page 4] Internet Draft syslogMIB April 2015 the change of status of a syslog application. o The syslogObjects subtree contains three subtrees. - The syslogControlTable subtree deals with the configuration and control information for a syslog application. - The syslogOperationsTable subtree deals with operations and statistical information about syslog messages sent and/or received by a syslog application. o The conformance subtree defines the compliance statements. The SYSLOG-MIB module uses textual conventions defined in INET- ADDRESS-MIB[RFC4001], SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB[RFC3411] and SYSLOG-TC- MIB[RFC5427].

Security Considerations Syslog plays a very important role in the computer and network security of an organization. SYSLOG-MIB defines several managed objects that may be used to monitor, configure and control syslog applications. As such improper manipulation of the objects represented by this MIB may lead to an attack on an important component of the computer and network security infrastructure. The objects in syslogControlTable, syslogPriorityTable and syslogRelayTable may be misconfigured to cause syslog messages to be diverted or lost. There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the tables and objects and their sensitivity/vulnerability: o syslogControlTable: The objects in this table describe the configuration of the syslog applications. It may be misconfigured to start up a very large number of syslog applications (processes) and deny the system of its resources. o syslogControlBindAddr: This object may be misconfigured to bind syslog application to the wrong address. This will cause messages to be lost. o syslogControlBindPort : This object may be misconfigured to bind syslog application to the wrong service (port). This will cause messages to be lost. o syslogControlMaxMessageSize: This message may be misconfigured to set the wrong MaxMessageSize for the syslog application. It may cause syslog messages to be lost. o syslogControlConfFileName: This object may be misconfigured to start the syslog application with the wrong (rogue) configuration. o syslogControlStorageType: This object may be misconfigured to set the wrong storage type. That may cause confusion, operational errors and/or loss of information. o syslogPriorityTable: The objects in this table link the priority value in a syslog message to the Hiroshi Tsunoda Expires: October 7, 2015 [Page 41] Internet Draft syslogMIB April 2015 entry in the syslogRelayTable corresponding to the syslog collector to which the syslog message should be relayed. The table may be misconfigured to redirect a syslog message to a potentially non-existent wrong destination and/or to redirect a large number of messages to a particular syslog collector. o syslogRelayTable: The rows in this table represent the relays to which syslog messages will be relayed, depending on the priority value in the respective syslog messages. The table may be misconfigured to redirect a syslog message to a potentially non-existent wrong destination and/or redirect a large number of messages to a particular syslog collector. Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control even GET and/or NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt the values of these objects when sending them over the network via SNMP. These are the tables and objects and their sensitivity/vulnerability: o syslogOperationsTable: Objects in this table carry sensitive information. The counters may reveal information about the deployment and effectiveness of the relevant security systems. The counters may be analyzed to tell whether the security systems are able to detect an event or not. o syslogOperationsLastError: This object may contain sensitive information e.g. user-id, password etc. depending on the implementation of the syslog application. It may reveal details about the syslog implementation itself, e.g. version, OS etc. o syslogPriorityTable: Objects in this table carry sensitive information. The objects reveal how the syslog messages are grouped, relayed and/or stored. o syslogRelayTable: Objects in this table carry sensitive information. The objects reveal the destination of syslog messages. Hiroshi Tsunoda Expires: October 7, 2015 [Page 42] Internet Draft syslogMIB April 2015 SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPsec), even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this MIB module. It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section 8), including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms (for authentication and privacy). Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT RECOMMENDED. Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to enable cryptographic security. It is then a customer/operator responsibility to ensure that the SNMP application giving access to an instance of this MIB module is properly configured to give access to the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.

IANA Considerations The MIB modules in this document use the following IANA-assigned OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry: Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER value ---------- ----------------------- syslogMIB { mib-2 YYYY } IANA Reg.: Please assign a value under the 'mib-2' subtree for the 'syslogMIB' MODULE-IDENTITY and record the assignment in the SMI Numbers registry. RFC Ed.: When the above assignments have been made, please - remove the above note - replace "YYYY" here with the assigned values and - remove this note. 7.
