Cis Docker V160 1.1.14
DevOps & Securitycis-docker-v160-1.1.14Cis Docker V160 1.1.14 is an Agent Skill for devops & security published in the CyberStrikeus/CyberStrike repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.
Ensure auditing is configured for Docker files and directories - /usr/bin/containerd
How to use this skill
Bring this guide into your coding agent with a prompt tailored to the tool you use.
- Open your project in Codex.
- Copy and paste the prompt below.
- Review files and risks before approving any action.
Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/CyberStrikeus/CyberStrike/blob/HEAD/.cyberstrike/skill/CIS_benchmarks/Server_Software/Docker/CIS_Docker_Benchmark_v1.6.0/cis-docker-v160-1.1.14/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/cis-docker-v160-1-1-14, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.
Copying this prompt does not install or run the skill. Review third-party files before use.
CIS Docker Benchmark v1.6.0 - 1.1.14
Profile Applicability
- Level 2 - Docker - Linux
Description
Audit /usr/bin/containerd if applicable.
Rationale
As well as auditing the normal Linux file system and system calls, you should audit all Docker related files and directories. The Docker daemon runs with root privileges and its behavior depends on some key files and directories. /usr/bin/containerd is one such file and as such should be audited.
Impact
Auditing can generate large log files. You should ensure that these are rotated and archived periodically. A separate partition should also be created for audit logs to avoid filling up any other critical partition.
Audit Procedure
You should verify that there is an audit rule corresponding to /usr/bin/containerd file.
For example, you could execute the command below:
auditctl -l | grep /usr/bin/containerd
This should display a rule for /usr/bin/containerd file.
Remediation
You should add a rule for the /usr/bin/containerd file.
For example:
Add the line below to the /etc/audit/audit.rules file:
-w /usr/bin/containerd -k docker
Then restart the audit daemon.
For example:
systemctl restart auditd
Default Value
By default, Docker related files and directories are not audited. The file /usr/bin/containerd may not be present on the system and in that case, this recommendation is not applicable.
