If you want/need to add password authentication to your FreeBSD Elasticsearch cluster (this should work on any FreeBSD with elasticsearch7) TLDR; (again) Add the following lines to your /usr/local/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml: xpack.security.enabled: true xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: true and restart elasticsearch. service elasticsearch restart Make sure curl is installed: pkg install curl Link the installed Java into the bundled directory (this is neither recommended nor supported but it does the trick) mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/elasticsearch/jdk/bin ln -s /usr/local/bin/java /usr/local/lib/elasticsearch/jdk/bin/java And run the password setup utility (this might take up to 2 minutes)

This is a short how-to for securing Saltstack communication via spiped. (most of it is based on the how-to I wrote on securing Elasticsearch with spiped) At first: install spiped FreeBSD pkg install spiped Debian/Ubuntu apt install spiped CentOS (fo those who haven’t migrated yet) vim /etc/yum.repos.d/spiped.repo [lsde-spiped] name=spiped repo baseurl=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/lsde/spiped/epel-7-$basearch/ type=rpm-md skip_if_unavailable=True gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/lsde/spiped/pubkey.gpg repo_gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 enabled_metadata=1 install spiped yum clean all yum install spiped generate symmetric encryption key dd if=/dev/urandom of=/root/saltpipe.

OpenSSH 8.2p1 with FIDO2 support was recently added to MacOS (via Homebrew) and FreeBSD (via ports/pkg). Here’s a short how-to securely login to your FreeBSD servers via FIDO2 (Yubikey, Solokey et. al.). On your MacOS client: Open your terminal and install libfido2 and openssh (8.2p1) brew install openssh libfido2 Generate you ecdsa key with libfido2. Insert your FIDO2 usb stick and run (push the auth button on your key when prompted):

Stop the running jail and export it: iocage stop jailname iocage export jailname Move the backup files (.zip and .sha256) into Bastille backup dir (default: /usr/local/bastille/backups/): mv /iocage/images/jailname_2020-03-26.* /usr/local/bastille/backups/ for remote systems you could use rsync: rsync -avh /iocage/images/jailname_2020-03-26.* [email protected]:/usr/local/bastille/backups/ Import the iocage backup file (use zip file name) bastille import jailname_2020-03-26.zip ```</pr```e> Set your new ip address and interface: vim /usr/local/bastille/jails/jailname/jail.conf interface = bastille0; ip4.addr = "192.168.0.1"; You can use you primary network interface instead of the virtual bastille0 interface as well if you know what you’re doing.

HowTo Secure Elasticsearch using spiped on FreeBSD, Debian and CentOS Spiped makes it really easy to secure connections between clients and Elasticsearch databases. Keep in mind that the symmetric key (once compromised) can be used to intercept/mitm all connections. install spiped FreeBSD pkg install spiped Debian/Ubuntu apt install spiped CentOS vim /etc/yum.repos.d/spiped.repo [lsde-spiped] name=Copr repo for spiped owned by lsde baseurl=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/lsde/spiped/> epel-7-$basearch/ type=rpm-md skip_if_unavailable=True gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/lsde/spiped/pubkey.gpg repo_gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 enabled_metadata=1 install spiped
