Seemingly duplicate NETFILTER_CFG records are not actually exact duplicates that are caused by netfilter table initialization in different network namespaces from the same syscall. To differentiate the NETFILTER_CFG records, the network namespace ID (proc inode) was added to the record to make this source evident. Here is a sample event with accompanied records: time->Sun May 14 22:40:26 2017 type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(1494816026.072:248): proctitle=2F7362696E2F6D6F6470726F6265002D71002D2D0065627461626C655F6E6174 type=KERN_MODULE msg=audit(1494816026.072:248): name="ebtable_nat" type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1494816026.072:248): arch=c000003e syscall=313 success=yes exit=0 a0=0 a1=55c4648d4106 a2=0 a3=0 items=0 ppid=84 pid=431 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="modprobe" exe="/usr/bin/kmod" subj=system_u:system_r:insmod_t:s0 key="mod-load" type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(1494816026.072:248): op=register net=324 family=7 table=nat entries=0 type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(1494816026.072:248): op=register net=121 family=7 table=nat entries=0 and unaccompanied cases: type=UNKNOWN[1331] msg=audit(1494815998.178:167): auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:iptables_t:s0 pid=598 comm="ip6tables-resto" exe="/usr/sbin/xtables-multi" op=replace net=121 family=10 table=filter entries=4 See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/25 Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@xxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h | 1 + net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c | 13 +++++++++---- net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c | 2 +- net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c | 2 +- net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_tables.c | 2 +- net/netfilter/x_tables.c | 10 +++++++--- 6 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h b/include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h index be378cf..6be4a04 100644 --- a/include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h +++ b/include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h @@ -308,6 +308,7 @@ struct xt_table *xt_register_table(struct net *net, struct xt_table_info *xt_replace_table(struct xt_table *table, unsigned int num_counters, struct xt_table_info *newinfo, + struct net *net, int *error);
