RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

Since 2.3.2-1  ausearch ignores (at least) USER event types when it is invoked with -ua option. Unfortunately I am unable to map changes in 2.3.2-1 onto upstream, I just not see them there. 

I see USER record type has been removed (and not only it) from extract_search_items function in ausearch-parse.c (even though it did not happened in upstream - https://fedorahosted.org/audit/browser/trunk/src/ausearch-parse.c). Adding USER type back to switch statement solved the issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

audit-2.3.2-1.el7

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:

0. cat >audit.test<<EOF
   type=USER msg=audit(1133817257.347:49948): user pid=25504 uid=0 auid=10208 msg='testing 1-2-3 testing'
   EOF

1. ausearch -if audit.test -ua 10208 

Actual results:

<no matches>

Expected results:

----
time->Mon Dec  5 22:14:17 2005
type=USER msg=audit(1133817257.347:49948): user pid=25504 uid=0 auid=10208 msg='testing 1-2-3 testing'


Additional info:

In previous version (2.3.1-4) it works fine.

The svn browser is somewhat broken. I have asked before why its not working and fedora admins did something to make it work. But I guess it didn't last long. I'll ask again to get it working off current code.

I started to remove AUDIT_USER from support because a comment in /usr/include/linux/audit.h says that its deprecated. But its not. So, the issue is that one more place was missed when restoring its support. Fixed in SVN. I will be doing another rebase to fix the problems reported on auvirt...it needs rewriting almost from scratch.

Fixed in audit-2.3.2-2.el7.

Successfully verified.
