SELinux Disabled - *nix

Anvilogic Forge

View Source
Summary
This detection rule focuses on monitoring and identifying instances where SELinux, a critical security mechanism in Linux that enforces mandatory access control, is disabled. The rule aims to recognize attempts by adversaries to undermine security measures by utilizing the 'setenforce' command to change the enforcement level to '0' or 'Permissive'. Additionally, it captures cases where value modifications are made directly in SELinux configuration files or through redirection commands that alter security settings. By detecting such alterations, the rule helps in proactively identifying defense evasion tactics employed by attackers that might lead to exploitation scenarios, while ensuring adherence to best practices in endpoint security management.
