Near-miss passage: Sigma rule: Detects the use of the `syslog` syscall with action code 5 (SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), (4 is SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_CLEAR and 6 i. Logsource: linux / auditd. Rule: title: Clear or Disable Kernel Ring Buffer Logs via Syslog Syscall id: eca5e022-d368-4043-98e5-9736fb01f72f status: experimental description: 'Detects the use of the `syslog` syscall with action code 5 (SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), (4 is SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_CLEAR and 6 is SYSLOG_ACTION_CONSOLE_OFF) which clears the kernel ring buffer (dmesg logs). This can be used by attackers to hide traces after exploitation or privilege escalation. A common technique is running `dmesg -c`, which triggers this syscall internally.
