Rename the container-side logging module decnet_logging → syslog_bridge
(canonical at templates/syslog_bridge.py, synced into each template by
the deployer). Drop the stale per-template copies; setuptools find was
picking them up anyway. Swap useradd/USER/chown "decnet" for "logrelay"
so no obvious token appears in the rendered container image.
Apply the same cloaking pattern to the telnet template that SSH got:
syslog pipe moves to /run/systemd/journal/syslog-relay and the relay
is cat'd via exec -a "systemd-journal-fwd". rsyslog.d conf rename
99-decnet.conf → 50-journal-forward.conf. SSH capture script:
/var/decnet/captured → /var/lib/systemd/coredump (real systemd path),
logger tag decnet-capture → systemd-journal. Compose volume updated
to match the new in-container quarantine path.
SD element ID shifts decnet@55555 → relay@55555; synced across
collector, parser, sniffer, prober, formatter, tests, and docs so the
host-side pipeline still matches what containers emit.
templates/decnet_logging.py calls str(v) on all SD-PARAM values, turning a
headers dict into Python repr ('{'User-Agent': ...}') rather than JSON.
detect_tools_from_headers() called json.loads() on that string and silently
swallowed the error, returning [] for every HTTP event. Same bug prevented
the ingester from extracting User-Agent bounty fingerprints.
- templates/http/server.py: wrap headers dict in json.dumps() before passing
to syslog_line so the value is a valid JSON string in the syslog record
- behavioral.py: add ast.literal_eval fallback for existing DB rows that were
stored with the old Python repr format
- ingester.py: parse headers as JSON string in _extract_bounty so User-Agent
fingerprints are stored correctly going forward
- tests: add test_json_string_headers and test_python_repr_headers_fallback
to exercise both formats in detect_tools_from_headers
Every service's _log() called print() then write_syslog_file() which also
calls print(), causing every log line to appear twice in Docker logs. The
collector streamed both copies, doubling ingested events. Removed the
redundant print() from all 22 service server.py files.
Spins up each service's server.py in a real subprocess via a free ephemeral
port (PORT env var), connects with real protocol clients, and asserts both
correct protocol behavior and RFC 5424 log output.
- 44 live tests across 10 services: http, ftp, smtp, redis, mqtt,
mysql, postgres, mongodb, pop3, imap
- Shared conftest.py: _ServiceProcess (bg reader thread + queue),
free_port, live_service fixture, assert_rfc5424 helper
- PORT env var added to all 10 targeted server.py templates
- New pytest marker `live`; excluded from default addopts run
- requirements-live-tests.txt: flask, twisted + protocol clients
- Add dynamic challenge nonces to Postgres, VNC, and SIP.
- Add basic keyspace lookup and mock data to Redis.
- Correct MSSQL TDS pre-login offset bounds.
- Support MongoDB OP_MSG handshake version checking.
- Suppress Werkzeug HTTP server headers and normalize FTPAnonymousShell response.
- Add tracking for Dynamic Bait Store (DEBT-027) via DEBT.md.
- Add # nosec B104 to all intentional 0.0.0.0 binds in honeypot servers
(hardcoded_bind_all_interfaces is by design — deckies must accept attacker connections)
- Add # nosec B101 to assert statements used for protocol validation in ldap/snmp
- Add # nosec B105 to fake SASL placeholder in ldap
- Add # nosec B108 to /tmp usage in smb template
- Exclude root-owned auto-generated decnet_logging.py copies from bandit scan
via pyproject.toml [tool.bandit] config (synced by _sync_logging_helper at deploy)
dict[str, Any] and X | Y union syntax require Python 3.10+. Containers
running centos7/ubuntu20/rocky9 base images ship Python 3.6-3.9 and
crashed on import. Adding the __future__ import makes all annotations
lazy strings, compatible back to Python 3.7.
Affected: templates/decnet_logging.py (+ all 22 template copies),
decnet/logging/syslog_formatter.py, decnet/logging/file_handler.py

- HTTP: configurable server_header, response_code, fake_app presets
(apache/nginx/wordpress/phpmyadmin/iis), extra_headers, custom_body,
static files directory mount
- SSH/Cowrie: configurable kernel_version, hardware_platform, ssh_banner,
and users/passwords via COWRIE_USERDB_ENTRIES; switched to build mode
so cowrie.cfg.j2 persona fields and userdb.txt generation work
- SMTP: configurable banner and MTA hostname
- MySQL: configurable version string in protocol greeting
- Redis: configurable redis_version and os string in INFO response
- BYOS: [custom-*] INI sections define bring-your-own Docker services
- Stealth: rename all *_honeypot.py → server.py; replace HONEYPOT_NAME
env var with NODE_NAME across all 22+ service templates and plugins;
strip "honeypot" from all in-container file content
- Config: DeckyConfig.service_config dict; INI [decky-N.svc] subsections;
composer passes service_cfg to compose_fragment
- 350 tests passing (100%)

--break-system-packages was added in pip 23 (Debian Bookworm). Ubuntu 22.04
ships pip 22 which rejects the flag with exit code 2. Switch to the
PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES env var instead: recognized by pip>=23, silently
ignored by pip<23 where PEP 668 is not enforced anyway.

- Replace hardcoded ALL_SERVICE_NAMES=[5 services] in cli.py with
_all_service_names() pulling dynamically from the plugin registry;
randomize-services now draws from all 25 registered honeypots
- Add build_base field to DistroProfile: apt-compatible image for service
Dockerfiles (ubuntu22/ubuntu20/kali get their own; others fall back to
debian:bookworm-slim since Dockerfiles use apt-get)
- Add build_base to DeckyConfig; propagate from distro in _build_deckies
and _build_deckies_from_ini
- Inject BASE_IMAGE build arg in composer.py for every build-based service
so each decky's containers reflect its assigned distro
- Update all 21 service Dockerfiles: FROM debian:bookworm-slim →
ARG BASE_IMAGE=debian:bookworm-slim / FROM ${BASE_IMAGE}
- Add tests/test_cli_service_pool.py and tests/test_composer.py (306 total)
