Hi,
I would like to share this little scripts which harends permissions on all of my servers (no problems so far)

Code:
chmod -R go-rwx /boot /root /home
chmod a+x /home

chmod -R go-rwx /etc
chmod a+x /etc /etc/wget /etc/security
chmod a+r /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/DIR_COLORS /etc/profile.env /etc/inputrc /etc/resolv.conf /etc/security/limits.conf /etc/services /etc/wget/wgetrc /etc
/screenrc /etc/hosts /etc/hostname 2>/dev/null
chmod a+rx /etc/profile 2>/dev/null
chmod g+r /etc/sudoers
chown named:named /etc/bind
chown squid:squid /etc/squid
chown snort:snort /etc/snort

chmod -R go-rwx /var/log
chmod g+rw /var/log/wtmp
chmod g+rwxs /var/log/portage

for f in `find / -perm +u+s -type f -uid 0 -or -perm +g+s -type f -gid 0`; do
 echo "Remove SUID `ls -al $f` (y/n)" ?
 read -n 1 -s keypress
 if [ "$keypress" = "y" ]; then
  echo "remove SUID from: `ls -al $f`" | logger
  chmod a-s $f
 fi;
done


best regards
Tomek

I've got a similar one (which is a bit chaotically laid out) that may also be of use,
however, it assumes/requires the / partition to be ex2/3 when using the chattr command.
If certain permissions cause problems, figure out what does work and add/alter the permissions script, revert to original permissions then try running the premissions script again. This script is only a starting point, and will more than likely need slight alterations to suit individuals needs.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
r_only="/boot /sbin /usr/sbin/* /usr/local/sbin" #Accessible only by root
w_ex="/* /bin /usr/* /usr/local/* /home"

if [ "$(mount | grep /boot)" = "" ]; then
    mount /boot -o rw
fi

for i in "/bin /root $r_only"; do
  chattr -VR  -i $i
  if [ "$i" -ne "/bin" ]; then
    chown -cR root:root $i
    chmod -cR 0700 $i
  fi
done


#Change top level, usr and local directories to only be world executable
for i in $w_ex; do
    chown -c root:root $i
    chmod -c 711 $i
done
chmod -cR 755 /bin
chmod -c 755 /usr/sbin
chmod -c 755 /usr/bin

chown -cR :proc /proc
chmod -cR g+r /proc
chown -cR portage:portage /usr/portage
chown -cR portage:portage /var/tmp/portage

#Add sticky to /tmp
chmod -c 1717 /tmp
chmod -c 1717 /var/tmp
chmod -c 0644 /var/run/utmp
chown root:utmp /var/run/screen
chmod -Rc 0700 /var/run/screen
chmod -c 0777 /var/run/screen
chown -Rc log /var/log/
chmod -Rc 0755 /var/log/
chown -Rc log:portage /var/log/portage
chmod -Rc 0755 /var/log/portage
chmod -c 0644 /var/log/wtmp


chown -c root:wheel /sbin
chown -c root:wheel /sbin/ifconfig
chmod -c 0710 /sbin
chmod -c 2710 /sbin/ifconfig

for i in {ssh_host_dsa_key,ssh_host_key,ssh_host_rsa_key}; do
    chown -c root:root /etc/ssh/$i
    chmod -c 700 /etc/ssh/$i
    chattr -V +i /etc/ssh/$i
done

#Ensure /etc/ is writeable only by root and some subdirectories only readable by
# owning group.
chown -cR root:root /etc
chmod -cR 755 /etc/*
chown -cR root:sshd /etc/ssh
chown -cR root:snort /etc/snort
if [ ! -d "/var/log/snort" ]; then
    mkdir /var/log/snort
fi
chown -cR log:snort /var/log/snort
chmod -cR 660 /var/log/snort
#Allow squid to access it's config directories
chown -cR root:squid /etc/squid
chown -cR root:squid /usr/lib/squid
chmod -cR 770 /usr/lib/squid

#Root only access
for i in {cron*,secur*,shadow*,init.d,runlevels,modules*,firewall*,fstab,ssh,snort,squid}; do
    chmod -cR 700 /etc/$i
done
chmod -c 0440 /etc/sudoers

chmod -Rc ug-s /*
chmod -c 6755 /bin/su

for i in {gpg,procmail,xtrlock,xscreensaver,sudo}; do
    chmod -c 4111 /usr/bin/$i
done

for i in {bin/vmware,bin/vmware-ping,lib/bin/vmware-vmx}; do
  chmod -c 4115 /opt/vmware/$i
done

chmod -c 4111 /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper
chown -cR root:audio /usr/local/mp3
chmod -Rc 771 /usr/local/mp3
for i in "/bin $r_only"; do
        chattr -VR +i $i
done

if [ "$(mount | grep /boot)" != "" ]; then
    umount /boot
fi


To unlock the lsattr settings I use:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
r_only="/boot /sbin /usr/sbin /usr/local/sbin" #Accessible only by root
#
if [ "$(mount | grep /boot)" = "" ]; then
    mount /boot -o rw
fi
#
for i in "/bin $r_only"; do
  chattr -VR  -i $i
done
if [ "$(mount | grep /boot)" != "" ]; then
    umount /boot
fi


Mine is definitely a work in progress... So please refrain from to much flaming :)

I've also got a script (another work in progress) that records the permissions for all files
which can be used prior to major hardening as reference for backing out:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
file="./perm.orig" 

##
#Determine which file to write to.
#If first run use perm.orig, otherwise use perm.$DATE
##

if [ -e $file ]; then
    file="perm.$(date +"%H-%M_%d-%m-%y")"
fi

##
#Determine which filesystems aren't mounted and add to $fstab then mount.
#This could be done a lot simpler by force mounting everything (mount -a) then mounting
#any filesystem with the noauto switch, however, this remembers which device was mounted
#so it can be unmounted later, returning the system to it's previous condition
##

for i in $(egrep -v \(^none\|^#\) /etc/fstab |egrep -o [[:space:]]\(/\\w\*\)\+); do
    if [[ "$i" != "/" && -z `egrep -o [[:space:]]$i[[:space:]] /etc/mtab` ]]; then
        fstab="$fstab $i"
        mount $i
    fi
done

##
#Get a list of files owned by each group
##

find / ! \( -fstype proc -prune \) -a ! \( -fstype sysfs -prune \) -a -printf "%U:%G:%m:/%P\n" > $file

##
#Unmount devices mounted for check
## 

for i in $fstab; do
    umount $i
done


And to restore permissions I use the following C program:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv){
  char in [1600];
  char filename [sizeof in];
  int  owner, group, mode;
  FILE *f = fopen(argv[1],"r");

  while(fgets(in,sizeof in,f)){
    sscanf(in, "%d:%d:%o:%s", &owner, &group, &mode, filename);
    chown(filename,owner,group);
    chmod(filename,mode);
  }
  return 0;
}


Compiled with:
Code:
gcc -O3 -Wall -ansi -o fix fix.c

and run using a permissions file created with the above script
Code:
./fix perm.orig
or
./fix perm_DATE


Obviously all the above need to be run su/sudo root.

[disclaimer] I'm a BASH/hardening noob. There are definitely better ways of doing these.[/disclaimer].

i was just thinking of doing something similarly myself, but i feel that i'm a n00b as well. i have moderate experience with bash scripting but hardly any with real system administration. i just wanted to start securing up my services a bit since i'm starting to use them and let others use them. i'll read through these scripts and maybe i'll learn something. thanks for posting your work guys :)
