Only the unit's SupplementaryGroups gave them, so 'sudo -u guard guard test' and 'guard check' could read neither /var/log's files nor the journal. systemd-sysusers (run on every install and upgrade) adds them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## [Unreleased]
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- First version. Guard watches log files (followed through rotation and
|
|
truncation) and the systemd journal (by unit and syslog identifier),
|
|
matches lines with patterns holding one `<IP>`, counts each address's
|
|
bounty within a window, and bans an address that reaches a watch's
|
|
hits in a Housecarl ban list (Housecarl 0.2): of every port, or of the
|
|
watch's protocol and ports, for a time that grows for repeat
|
|
offenders. IPv6 addresses are counted and banned by the ban list's
|
|
prefix (/64). Never banned: `never_ban` (addresses, prefixes, host
|
|
names), loopback, link-local, multicast; Housecarl adds its own. Bans
|
|
wait while Housecarl can't be reached, across restarts.
|
|
- Presets: `sshd`, `jarl`, `housecarl`, `steward`, `bind-xfr`,
|
|
`postfix-sasl`, `dovecot`, `nginx-auth`, `housecarl-drops`
|
|
(Housecarl's log of dropped packets, TCP only by default).
|
|
- Commands: `guard run`, `check`, `config [--example]`, `presets`,
|
|
`test` (a watch's patterns over a log), `status` (through a local
|
|
socket), `bans`, `ban`, `unban`, `version`.
|
|
- A Debian package with a sandboxed systemd unit, as the `guard` user in
|
|
the `adm` and `systemd-journal` groups, published with each release to
|
|
the Gitea Debian registry (`stable`, or `testing` for a release
|
|
candidate) along with tarballs for Linux amd64 and arm64.
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- The package's `guard` user is now in the `adm` and `systemd-journal`
|
|
groups itself, as the documentation said, not only through its unit's
|
|
`SupplementaryGroups`. `sudo -u guard guard test` and `guard check`
|
|
could read neither `/var/log`'s files (`permission denied`) nor the
|
|
journal. Upgrading adds the groups.
