# Intro
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The purpose of the diagnostics script is to provide a secure and trusted method
|
||
|
|
of gathering and uploading logs on systems that are experiencing issues.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Method
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following steps are taken for creating diagnostic logs:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Log data is separated into various categories, the standard output and error
|
||
|
|
output are recorded for analysis by developers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Compress and encrypt the log data directory using a randomly generated or
|
||
|
|
user provided AES key.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Encrypt the AES key "metadata" using a developer provided public key.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. Upload the symmetric encrypted log data and public key encrypted metadata
|
||
|
|
for remote analysis.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Implementation Details
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `diagnostics.sh` command can take an optional argument which describes the
|
||
|
|
desired steps to take. By default the script will perform a
|
||
|
|
`gather-upload-confirm`, where the steps of uploading and including metadata
|
||
|
|
are confirmed by prompt. If the argument is given as `gather` the encryption
|
||
|
|
and upload step will be skipped. An argument of `gather-upload` would upload
|
||
|
|
without prompt and include metadata for decryption, while
|
||
|
|
`gather-upload-nometa` would upload without prompting and without including
|
||
|
|
necessary decryption metadata.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The user must then communicate the ID of the log file uploaded for analysis,
|
||
|
|
and if the encryption metadata was not included in the upload that information
|
||
|
|
must also be communicated in a secure manner.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AES encryption metadata will appear in a form like the following:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
Save secret metadata for log decryption:
|
||
|
|
salt=62e2ac13ae6bb66e
|
||
|
|
key=375dc2863c5b340252c0e5c631dda24b4fdc343139410b97fb5b7678919d8752
|
||
|
|
iv=7874c21533a1b4a4129c00e95bd9d0e4
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The "salt", "key", and "iv" are randomly generated values using openssl, or
|
||
|
|
they can be manually passed in as environment variables. Similarly a "UUID" is
|
||
|
|
auto-generated if not provided through the environment.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Decrypting Data
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When decrypting log data for analysis a developer requires the following
|
||
|
|
information:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. A working `gsutil` command setup with credentials using the appropriate
|
||
|
|
bucket. `pip install gsutil` should install and
|
||
|
|
`echo -e 'rancher-dev-file.json\nk3s-diagnostic-logs' | gsutil config -e` to
|
||
|
|
configure access.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. The AES encryption metadata if not included in the upload (defined as
|
||
|
|
environment variables), or the private key and passphrase for decrypting
|
||
|
|
metadata if included in upload.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The UUID of the desired log set should also be provided (either as env or
|
||
|
|
first argument), and may be partial or contain wildcards.
