puppet-rkhunter

Manage rkhunter installation and configuration with Puppet.

Features

• Manage ALL config entries (some of them dont make sense in server environments)
• Manage your whitelists
• The check cronjob is called staggered (predefined timewindow)
• The db update cronjob is configured separately

Supported OS

• Debian (tested on Debian 7.5, 8.1, 10)
• Redhat/CentOS (tested on CentOS 6, 7 and 8)
• FreeBSD (NOT tested yet)

Used Modules

Other than some data types from puppetlabs/stdlib, no other external modules are used.

Configuration

See templates/etc/rkhunter.conf.erb for detailed explanation of the rkhunter config options. Important: full possible configuration is visible in params.pp. Do not uncomment them in params.pp.

Minimal configuration

  include rkhunter
  include rkhunter::cron

A bit bigger configuration

class { 'rkhunter':
  allow_ssh_root_user         => 'yes',
  shared_lib_whitelist        => [ '/lib/snoopy.so' ],
  allow_syslog_remote_logging => "1",
  scriptwhitelist             => [
    '/bin/egrep',
    '/bin/fgrep',
    '/bin/which',
    '/usr/bin/groups',
    '/usr/bin/ldd',
    '/usr/bin/lwp-request',
    '/usr/sbin/adduser',
  ],
}
include rkhunter::cron
