When service_cfg["email_seed"] is absent, compose_fragment now falls
back to $PROJROOT/bait/ if that directory exists on the host. Lets
operators drop a deployment-wide bait corpus into one place without
threading email_seed through every decky's config. Missing dir keeps
old no-op behavior.
IMAP_EMAIL_SEED / POP3_EMAIL_SEED accept a directory (rglob *.eml +
*.json) or a single .json/.eml. Loaded entries CONCATENATE with the
hardcoded _BAIT_EMAILS — additive to the realism-engine emailgen
output rather than replacing it. JSON dicts require from_addr /
to_addr / subject / body; bare bodies are wrapped into RFC 5322 on
load. compose_fragment reads service_cfg["email_seed"] and bind-mounts
the host path read-only at /var/spool/decnet-emails/seed.
ANTI flagged two regressions in the existing command-event capture:
1. **Tell**: PROMPT_COMMAND lived in /root/.bashrc, the FIRST file
an attacker greps after landing root. The logger invocation
sitting there is plain-text honeypot signage.
2. **Bypass**: even when missed, `export PROMPT_COMMAND=""` silently
disables capture. ANTI personally bypasses this on engagements.
Reshape:
* Move the assignment to **/etc/environment** — read by pam_env at
session open (sshd via /etc/pam.d/sshd, telnet via
/etc/pam.d/login), before any shell rc file fires. Far less
obvious than .bashrc; a casual `cat .bashrc` no longer surfaces
the capture.
* Define the helper as a function `__bash_history_sync` in
**/etc/bash.bashrc** (system-wide bashrc, sourced by every
interactive bash). Function name reads as generic bash
housekeeping; no DECNET branding in the symbol.
* Pin both the function and PROMPT_COMMAND **readonly** so
`export PROMPT_COMMAND=""` fails with "readonly variable"
instead of silently winning. Mitigation, not airtight —
`bash --norc` still bypasses — but the passive `export`
bypass is closed.
The actual `logger --rfc5424 --msgid command ... CMD ...` invocation
is preserved exactly; only its location and the readonly guard
change. R0001–R0030 (command-rule pack) consume the same syslog
shape as before.
Three new tests assert: the value lands in /etc/environment, the
function body lives in /etc/bash.bashrc, no PROMPT_COMMAND line
remains in /root/.bashrc, and `readonly PROMPT_COMMAND` /
`readonly -f __bash_history_sync` are both present. Mirror
assertions added on the Telnet Dockerfile via
test_config_schema.py.
Real Linux deployments (especially Ubuntu cloud images) ship a non-
root admin user; honeypots that only accept root logins are a tell.
Add a second account on both SSH and Telnet decoys, configurable
via service_cfg keys `user` / `user_password`, defaulting to
`ubuntu` / `admin` so the lure is live on every fresh deploy.
* `decnet/services/{ssh,telnet}.py` — two new ServiceConfigFields
(`user` string, `user_password` secret) and matching env vars
(`SSH_USER` / `SSH_USER_PASSWORD`, mirror for telnet) propagated
via the compose fragment.
* `decnet/templates/ssh/entrypoint.sh` — runtime `useradd -m -s
/usr/libexec/login-session -G sudo "$SSH_USER"` so the new user
inherits the same sessrec pty-recording shell as root and lands
in the sudo group. Privesc attempts (`sudo`) flow through the
existing sudo-log capture; network-enum from the user's shell
rides the recorded transcript.
* `decnet/templates/telnet/entrypoint.sh` — same useradd pattern
(no sudo group — busybox+login telnet image has no sudo
package; privesc rides `su -` which itself flows through the
existing PAM auth-helper at /etc/pam.d/login).
* New tests for default + custom user / password + independence
from root password. Updated the schema-keys assertion to match
the four-field shape.
The new account is ALSO the natural home for the body-aware
predicates that were previously gated on root-only sessions —
attackers who land on `ubuntu@host` and run network-recon /
privesc commands now generate the same structured TTP-rule
events as root sessions did, captured via the same auth-helper
+ sessrec + sudo-log pipes.
SERVICE_NAME was hardcoded to 'smtp' in server.py; the ingester's probe
publish guard checked service == 'smtp_relay' and never matched.
Read SMTP_SERVICE_NAME from env (default 'smtp'); smtp_relay compose
fragment sets it to 'smtp_relay' so the two services are distinguishable.
Attacker probe emails are now forwarded by the master (realism worker)
rather than inside the MACVLAN container, which has no internet gateway.
- New smtp.probe.pending bus topic: ingester publishes when smtp_relay
message_stored fires; worker subscribes and does the actual delivery
- decnet/orchestrator/drivers/smtp_relay.py: pure-sync forward_probe()
reads the .eml from disk and sends via smtplib on a thread executor
- worker.py: _run_smtp_probe_listener + _handle_probe_pending subtask;
limit enforced via count_probe_relays() (DB-backed, restart-safe)
- bounties.py: count_probe_relays() query on probe_relay bounty type
- fleet.py: get_fleet_decky_by_name() to pull service config from DB
- services/smtp_relay.py: upstream_* and probe_limit fields defined in
config_schema but NOT injected into container env (credentials stay
out of docker env vars)
- ingester.py: stripped of smtplib; publishes probe.pending and exits
- tests: assert upstream keys absent from container environment
First SMTP_PROBE_LIMIT messages per source IP are forwarded via a real
upstream relay (SMTP_UPSTREAM_HOST/PORT/USER/PASS) so the attacker's
test email actually lands in their inbox. All subsequent messages from
the same IP get 250 Ok but only hit the quarantine — campaign content
captured, nothing delivered.
- Declarative config_schema on RDP, Telnet, MySQL, Redis, SMTP, SMTP_Relay
matching the keys each service already reads at compose time.
- TODO marker on the 19 services that accept service_cfg but never read it,
so future contributors know where to plug schemas in.
- Wizard base64-wraps all textarea values at INI emit (DeckyFleet
buildIni); validate_cfg detects the b64: sentinel and decodes back to
UTF-8. Plain raw strings still pass through for direct API submitters.
- HTTPS image entrypoint accepts PEM content or path in TLS_CERT/TLS_KEY:
detects a BEGIN header, writes content to /opt/tls/, and re-exports
the on-disk path so server.py keeps reading paths.
- Tests cover schema/compose alignment for each new service plus
textarea base64 round-trip (incl. UTF-8) and HTTPS PEM end-to-end.
ServiceConfigField dataclass + BaseService.validate_cfg coerce/drop submitted
service_cfg dicts against per-service typed schemas. SSH/HTTP/HTTPS now declare
the keys they already read in compose_fragment, so the upcoming Inspector form
has metadata to render from instead of hardcoded inputs per service.
