Subject: aide: (Optionally?) ignore read-only ext2attrs

Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2011 23:46:56 +0000

Package: aide
Version: 0.15.1-2+squeeze1
Severity: wishlist

Several of the attributes listed by the lsattr program are
"read-only" and cannot be changed by chattr; essentially,
these attributes represent diagnostics reported by the ext2
filesystem driver. To quote chattr(1):

  The following attributes are read-only, and may be listed
  by lsattr(1) but not modified by chattr: huge file (h),
  compression error (E), indexed directory (I), compression
  raw access (X), and compressed dirty file (Z).

Currently, the e2fsattrs check in aide will list changes to
these attributes too; it might make more sense for aide to
ignore these attributes, or at least to provide an option to
do so, as such changes are unlikely to be security-relevant.
