|
||||
## Host-by-Host Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### pihole (pihole.grokbox) - 192.168.122.12
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** ✅ Operational
|
||||
**OS:** Debian
|
||||
**Uptime:** 23 days, 11:03
|
||||
**Role:** DNS/Ad-blocking service
|
||||
|
||||
#### System Resources
|
||||
- **CPU:** Load average: 0.27, 0.11, 0.06 (healthy)
|
||||
- **Memory:** 1.9GB total, 401MB used, 1.5GB available (healthy)
|
||||
- **Swap:** **0B** ❌ CRITICAL
|
||||
- **Disk:** /dev/vda1 - 7.7GB total, 1.9GB used (25% utilization)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Critical Findings
|
||||
|
||||
**1. No Swap Configured** ❌ **CRITICAL**
|
||||
- **Finding:** System has 0B swap space
|
||||
- **Risk:** High risk of OOM killer activation under memory pressure
|
||||
- **CLAUDE.md Requirement:** Minimum 1GB swap (lv_swap)
|
||||
- **Impact:** Service interruptions, potential data loss
|
||||
- **Remediation:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Option 1: Add swap file (quick fix)
|
||||
dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=2048
|
||||
chmod 600 /swapfile
|
||||
mkswap /swapfile
|
||||
swapon /swapfile
|
||||
echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' >> /etc/fstab
|
||||
|
||||
# Option 2: LVM swap (CLAUDE.md compliant)
|
||||
# Requires LVM migration (see below)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**2. No LVM Configuration** ⚠️ **HIGH**
|
||||
- **Finding:** Using traditional partitioning (/dev/vda1 mounted on /)
|
||||
- **CLAUDE.md Violation:** All systems must use LVM
|
||||
- **Missing Volumes:**
|
||||
- lv_opt → /opt (3GB)
|
||||
- lv_tmp → /tmp (1GB, noexec)
|
||||
- lv_home → /home (2GB)
|
||||
- lv_var → /var (5GB)
|
||||
- lv_var_log → /var/log (2GB)
|
||||
- lv_var_tmp → /var/tmp (5GB, noexec)
|
||||
- lv_var_audit → /var/log/audit (1GB)
|
||||
- lv_swap → swap (2GB)
|
||||
- **Risk:** Cannot dynamically resize partitions, difficult disaster recovery
|
||||
- **Remediation:** See "LVM Migration Plan" section below
|
||||
|
||||
**3. Docker Running with Unknown Security Posture** ⚠️ **MEDIUM**
|
||||
- **Finding:** Docker daemon running (PID 627, consuming 4.0% memory)
|
||||
- **Containers:** Multiple overlay mounts detected
|
||||
- **Security Concerns:**
|
||||
- Container escape risk
|
||||
- Privileged container usage unknown
|
||||
- Network isolation unknown
|
||||
- Resource limits unknown
|
||||
- **Remediation:** Perform Docker security audit (see section below)
|
||||
|
||||
#### High Priority Findings
|
||||
|
||||
**4. Unattended Upgrades Running** ℹ️ **INFO**
|
||||
- **Finding:** `/usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrade-shutdown` active
|
||||
- **Status:** This is expected behavior per CLAUDE.md
|
||||
- **Action:** Verify configuration aligns with security-only updates
|
||||
|
||||
#### Recommendations
|
||||
1. **Immediate:** Configure swap space (Option 1: swap file)
|
||||
2. **Short-term:** Conduct Docker security audit
|
||||
3. **Long-term:** Plan LVM migration or document exception rationale
|

|
||||
### mymx / cow.mymx.me - 192.168.122.119
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** ✅ Operational (after SSH key deployment)
|
||||
**OS:** Debian
|
||||
**Hostname:** cow.mymx.me
|
||||
**Role:** Mail server (mailcow)
|
||||
|
||||
#### System Resources
|
||||
- **CPU:** Multi-core, moderate load
|
||||
- **Memory:** 16GB total, 6.1GB used, 9.5GB available (healthy)
|
||||
- **Swap:** 976MB total, 439MB used (45% utilization) ✅ COMPLIANT
|
||||
- **Disk:** LVM configured (/dev/mapper/mymx--vg-root - 48GB, 57% used) ✅ COMPLIANT
|
||||
|
||||
#### Critical Findings
|
||||
|
||||
**1. SSH Authentication Failure (RESOLVED)** ✅
|
||||
- **Initial Finding:** Permission denied (publickey)
|
||||
- **Root Cause:** `ansible` user did not exist, SSH key not deployed
|
||||
- **Remediation Applied:**
|
||||
- Created `ansible` user
|
||||
- Deployed SSH public key
|
||||
- Configured passwordless sudo
|
||||
- **Status:** ✅ RESOLVED - Host now accessible via Ansible
|
||||
|
||||
**2. QEMU Guest Agent Not Responding** ⚠️ **HIGH**
|
||||
- **Finding:** `libvirt: QEMU Driver error : Guest agent is not connected`
|
||||
- **Impact:**
|
||||
- Cannot get accurate VM state from hypervisor
|
||||
- Snapshot filesystem freeze unavailable
|
||||
- Limited VM management capabilities from libvirt
|
||||
- **Remediation:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible mymx -b -m apt -a "name=qemu-guest-agent state=present"
|
||||
ansible mymx -b -m systemd -a "name=qemu-guest-agent state=started enabled=yes"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### High Priority Findings
|
||||
|
||||
**3. Heavy Service Load** ⚠️ **MEDIUM**
|
||||
- **Finding:** Multiple resource-intensive services:
|
||||
- ClamAV clamd: 8.7% memory (1.4GB)
|
||||
- YaCy search: 7.9% memory (1.3GB) + high CPU
|
||||
- OpenWebUI: 4.8% memory (800MB)
|
||||
- MariaDB: 2.0% memory (328MB)
|
||||
- Redis: Running
|
||||
- **Concerns:**
|
||||
- Memory pressure (6.1GB / 16GB used)
|
||||
- Swap usage (45%)
|
||||
- CPU contention risk
|
||||
- **Recommendations:**
|
||||
- Monitor resource trends
|
||||
- Consider vertical scaling (increase RAM) if swap usage grows
|
||||
- Review YaCy necessity (search engine consuming significant resources)
|
||||
- Implement resource limits for containers
|
||||
|
||||
**4. Extensive Docker Usage** ⚠️ **MEDIUM**
|
||||
- **Finding:** 24 Docker overlay mounts detected
|
||||
- **Services:** Mailcow components running in containers
|
||||
- **Security Concerns:** Same as pihole (see Docker audit section)
|
||||
|
||||
#### LVM Status
|
||||
✅ **COMPLIANT** - LVM is properly configured:
|
||||
- Volume Group: `mymx-vg`
|
||||
- Root volume: `/dev/mapper/mymx--vg-root` (48GB)
|
||||
- Swap: LVM-based (976MB)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Recommendations
|
||||
1. **Immediate:** Install qemu-guest-agent
|
||||
2. **Short-term:** Monitor resource usage trends
|
||||
3. **Medium-term:** Conduct Docker security audit
|
||||
4. **Long-term:** Plan capacity expansion if memory usage continues growing

### derp - 192.168.122.99
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** ❌ UNREACHABLE
|
||||
**Error:** `Permission denied (publickey,password)`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Critical Findings
|
||||
|
||||
**1. SSH Authentication Failure** ❌ **CRITICAL**
|
||||
- **Finding:** Cannot connect via SSH with both key and password authentication
|
||||
- **Attempted Remediation:** Failed to connect via jump host
|
||||
- **Error Detail:** `Connection closed by UNKNOWN port 65535`
|
||||
- **Possible Causes:**
|
||||
1. VM is not running
|
||||
2. SSH service not running
|
||||
3. Network connectivity issue
|
||||
4. Firewall blocking connection
|
||||
5. SSH configuration issue
|
||||
6. System compromised or in rescue mode
|
||||
|
||||
#### Immediate Actions Required
|
||||
1. **Check VM Status:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "virsh list --all | grep derp"
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "virsh domstate derp"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **If VM is running, access via console:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ssh grokbox "virsh console derp"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Verify network:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "virsh domifaddr derp"
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "ping -c 3 192.168.122.99"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Check SSH service (via console):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
systemctl status sshd
|
||||
journalctl -u sshd -n 50
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Check firewall (via console):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ufw status # Debian/Ubuntu
|
||||
iptables -L # All systems
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Infrastructure-Wide Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Dynamic Inventory Warnings
|
||||
|
||||
**Finding:** Invalid characters in group names
|
||||
```
|
||||
[WARNING]: Invalid characters were found in group names but not replaced
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Root Cause:** Libvirt dynamic inventory creates UUID-based groups with hyphens:
|
||||
- `7cd5a220-bea4-49a1-a44e-a247dbdfd085`
|
||||
- `6d714c93-16fb-41c8-8ef8-9001f9066b3a`
|
||||
- `9ede717f-879b-48aa-add0-2dfd33e10765`
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:** Potential compatibility issues with Ansible group operations
|
||||
|
||||
**Remediation:**
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# inventories/development/libvirt_kvm.yml
|
||||
# Add group name sanitization
|
||||
keyed_groups:
|
||||
- key: info.uuid | regex_replace('-', '_')
|
||||
prefix: uuid
|
||||
separator: "_"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### QEMU Guest Agent Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
**Finding:** Guest agent not installed on VMs
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:**
|
||||
- Unreliable IP address discovery
|
||||
- No filesystem quiescing for snapshots
|
||||
- Limited VM management from libvirt
|
||||
|
||||
**Remediation Playbook:**
|
||||
|
||||
Create `playbooks/install_qemu_agent.yml`:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
- name: Install QEMU Guest Agent on all VMs
|
||||
hosts: kvm_guests
|
||||
become: yes
|
||||
tasks:
|
||||
- name: Install qemu-guest-agent (Debian/Ubuntu)
|
||||
apt:
|
||||
name: qemu-guest-agent
|
||||

|
||||
update_cache: yes
|
||||
when: ansible_os_family == "Debian"
|
||||

|
||||
systemd:
|
||||

register: agent_status
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Display agent status
|
||||
debug:
|
||||
msg: "QEMU Guest Agent status: {{ agent_status.status.ActiveState }}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Detailed Remediation Plans
|
||||
|
||||
### Plan 1: Pihole LVM Migration
|
||||
|
||||
**Complexity:** HIGH
|
||||
**Downtime:** 2-4 hours
|
||||
**Risk:** MEDIUM (data migration required)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Prerequisites
|
||||
- Full backup of pihole data
|
||||
- Maintenance window scheduled
|
||||
- Secondary DNS available during migration
|
||||
|
||||
#### Migration Steps
|
||||
|
||||
**Option A: In-Place Migration (Complex)**
|
||||
1. Backup all data
|
||||
2. Add second disk to VM
|
||||
3. Create LVM on new disk
|
||||
4. Copy data to new LVM volumes
|
||||
5. Update fstab
|
||||
6. Update bootloader
|
||||
7. Reboot and verify
|
||||
8. Remove old disk
|
||||
|
||||
**Option B: Redeploy with deploy_linux_vm role (Recommended)**
|
||||
1. Backup pihole configuration and data:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Backup Pi-hole configuration
|
||||
pihole -a teleporter backup.tar.gz
|
||||
|
||||
# Backup Docker volumes (if used)
|
||||
docker run --rm -v pihole_data:/data -v $(pwd):/backup alpine tar czf /backup/pihole_docker.tar.gz /data
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Deploy new VM with LVM:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- hosts: grokbox
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- role: deploy_linux_vm
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_name: pihole-new
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_hostname: pihole
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_os_distribution: debian-12
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_vcpus: 2
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_memory_mb: 2048
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_disk_size_gb: 30
|
||||
deploy_linux_vm_use_lvm: true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Restore data to new VM
|
||||
4. Test functionality
|
||||
5. Update DNS records
|
||||
6. Decommission old VM
|
||||
|
||||
**Option C: Document Exception**
|
||||
If pihole is ephemeral or easily replaceable:
|
||||
1. Document why LVM is not required
|
||||
2. Add to exceptions list in CLAUDE.md
|
||||
3. Ensure backup/restore procedures are in place
|
||||
|
||||
#### Recommendation
|
||||
**Option B (Redeploy)** is recommended because:
|
||||
- Clean implementation of CLAUDE.md standards
|
||||
- Minimal risk (old VM remains until verified)
|
||||
- Opportunity to update to latest OS version
|
||||
- Practice for future VM deployments
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Plan 2: Docker Security Audit
|
||||
|
||||
**Complexity:** MEDIUM
|
||||
**Duration:** 2-4 hours
|
||||
**Risk:** LOW (read-only analysis)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Audit Checklist
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
#### Security Hardening Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
Based on audit findings, apply these hardening measures:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Restrict Docker Socket Access**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod 660 /var/run/docker.sock
|
||||
chown root:docker /var/run/docker.sock
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Enable User Namespaces**
|
||||
```json
|
||||
# /etc/docker/daemon.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"userns-remap": "default"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Configure Resource Limits (Mailcow example)**
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# docker-compose.yml
|
||||
services:
|
||||
postfix:
|
||||
mem_limit: 512m
|
||||
cpus: 0.5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Disable Privileged Containers** (review necessity)
|
||||
5. **Enable AppArmor/SELinux profiles**
|
||||
6. **Configure logging**:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"log-driver": "json-file",
|
||||
"log-opts": {
|
||||
"max-size": "10m",
|
||||
"max-file": "3"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Plan 3: Swap Configuration for Pihole
|
||||
|
||||
**Complexity:** LOW
|
||||
**Duration:** 10 minutes
|
||||
**Risk:** LOW
|
||||
**Downtime:** None (can be done live)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Quick Fix: Swap File
|
||||
|
||||
Create `playbooks/configure_swap.yml`:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
- name: Configure Swap on Systems Without It
|
||||
hosts: kvm_guests
|
||||
become: yes
|
||||
vars:
|
||||
swap_file_path: /swapfile
|
||||
swap_size_mb: 2048 # 2GB
|
||||
tasks:
|
||||
- name: Check current swap
|
||||
command: swapon --show
|
||||
register: current_swap
|
||||
changed_when: false
|
||||
failed_when: false
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Check if swap file exists
|
||||
stat:
|
||||
path: "{{ swap_file_path }}"
|
||||
register: swap_file
|
||||
|
||||
- block:
|
||||
- name: Create swap file
|
||||
command: dd if=/dev/zero of={{ swap_file_path }} bs=1M count={{ swap_size_mb }}
|
||||
args:
|
||||
creates: "{{ swap_file_path }}"
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Set swap file permissions
|
||||
file:
|
||||
path: "{{ swap_file_path }}"
|
||||
mode: '0600'
|
||||
owner: root
|
||||
group: root
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Format swap file
|
||||
command: mkswap {{ swap_file_path }}
|
||||
when: not swap_file.stat.exists
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Enable swap file
|
||||
command: swapon {{ swap_file_path }}
|
||||
when: swap_file_path not in current_swap.stdout
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Add swap to fstab
|
||||
lineinfile:
|
||||
path: /etc/fstab
|
||||
line: "{{ swap_file_path }} none swap sw 0 0"
|
||||
state: present
|
||||
backup: yes
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Verify swap is active
|
||||
command: swapon --show
|
||||
register: new_swap
|
||||
changed_when: false
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Display swap status
|
||||
debug:
|
||||
var: new_swap.stdout_lines
|
||||
|
||||
when: current_swap.stdout | length == 0 or swap_size_mb > 0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Execute:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbooks/configure_swap.yml --limit pihole
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

### Plan 4: Derp VM Recovery
|
||||
|
||||
**Complexity:** MEDIUM
|
||||
**Duration:** 30-60 minutes
|
||||
**Risk:** MEDIUM
|
||||
|
||||
#### Diagnostic Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Verify VM state:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "virsh list --all"
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "virsh domstate derp"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **If VM is shut off, start it:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible grokbox -b -m shell -a "virsh start derp"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Check console access:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ssh grokbox "virsh console derp"
|
||||
# Press Enter to get login prompt
|
||||
# Login as root
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **From console, diagnose:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check network
|
||||
ip addr show
|
||||
ip route show
|
||||
ping -c 3 192.168.122.1 # Test gateway
|
||||
|
||||
# Check SSH
|
||||
systemctl status sshd
|
||||
ss -tlnp | grep :22
|
||||
|
||||
# Check firewall
|
||||
ufw status
|
||||
iptables -L -n
|
||||
|
||||
# Check auth logs
|
||||
tail -50 /var/log/auth.log # Debian
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Deploy SSH key (from console):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Create ansible user if needed
|
||||
useradd -m -s /bin/bash ansible
|
||||
mkdir -p /home/ansible/.ssh
|
||||
chmod 700 /home/ansible/.ssh
|
||||
|
||||
# Add public key (paste manually via console)
|
||||
cat > /home/ansible/.ssh/authorized_keys << 'EOF'
|
||||
ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAILBrnivsqjhAxWYeuuvnYc3neeRRuHsr2SjeKv+Drtpu user@debian
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
|
||||
chmod 600 /home/ansible/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
||||
chown -R ansible:ansible /home/ansible/.ssh
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure sudo
|
||||
echo "ansible ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" > /etc/sudoers.d/ansible
|
||||
chmod 440 /etc/sudoers.d/ansible
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Test connectivity:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ansible derp -m ping
|
||||
```

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Documentation Updates Required
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Update CLAUDE.md:**
|
||||
- Document any approved exceptions (e.g., pihole LVM)
|
||||
- Add Docker security requirements
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Update inventory:**
|
||||
- Document derp issues and resolution
|
||||
- Note mymx resource constraints
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Create runbook:**
|
||||
- VM recovery procedures
|
||||
- Swap configuration standard
|
||||
- Docker hardening checklist
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Lessons Learned
|
||||
|
||||
1. **SSH Key Management:** Need automated key deployment for new VMs
|
||||
- Recommendation: Include in deploy_linux_vm role cloud-init
|
||||
|
||||
2. **QEMU Guest Agent:** Should be standard in cloud-init
|
||||
- Recommendation: Add to deploy_linux_vm role templates
|
||||
|
||||
3. **LVM Enforcement:** Need validation in system_info role
|
||||
- Recommendation: Add CLAUDE.md compliance check
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Monitoring Needed:** Resource usage trends not tracked
|
||||
- Recommendation: Implement monitoring role (Prometheus + node_exporter)
