NAME Net::SFTP::SftpServer - A Perl implementation of the SFTP subsystem with user access controls SYNOPSIS use Net::SFTP::SftpServer; my $sftp = Net::SFTP::SftpServer->new(); $sftp->run(); DESCRIPTION A Perl port of sftp-server from openssh providing access control on a per user per command basis and improved logging via syslog The limitations compared with the openssh implementation are as follows: * Only files and directories are dealt with - other types are not returned on readdir * a virtual chroot is performed - / is treated as the users home directory from the client perspective and all file access to / will be in // home_path is defined on object initialisation not accessed from /etc/passwd * all sym linked files or directories are hidden and not accessible on request * symlink returns permission denied * readlink returns file does not exist * setting of stats (set_stat or set_fstat) is disabled - client will receive permission denied * permissions for file or dir is defaulted - default set on object initialisation USAGE Basic usage: use Net::SFTP::SftpServer; Import options: :LOG - Import logging functions for use in callbacks :ACTION - Import constants for Allow/Deny of actions Configuring syslog: Syslog output mode must be configured in the use statement of the module as follows: use Net::SFTP::SftpServer ( { log => 'local5' }, qw ( :LOG :ACTIONS ) ); Net::SFTP::SftpServer will default to using daemon see your system's syslog documentation for more details Options for object initialisation: * debug Log debug level information. Deault=0 (note this will create very large log files - use with caution) * home Filesystem location of user home directories. default=/home * file_perms Octal file permissions to force on creation of files. Default=0666 or permissions specified by file open command from client * dir_perms Octal dir permissions to force on creation of directories. Default=0777 or permissions specified by mkdir command from client * on_file_sent on_file_received References to callback functions to be called on complete file sent or received. Function will be passed the full path and filename on the filesystem as a single argument * use_tmp_upload Use temporary upload filenames while a file is being uploaded - this allows a monitoring script to know which files are in transit without having to watch file size. Will be done transparantly to the user, the file will be renamed to the original file name when close. The temportary extension is ".SftpXFR.$$". Default=0 * max_file_size Maximum file size (in bytes) which can be uploaded. Default=0 (no limit) * valid_filename_char Array of valid characters for filenames * allow, deny Actions allowed or denied - see "PERMISSIONS" for details, Default is to allow ALL. * fake_ok Array of actions (see action contants in "PERMISSIONS") which will be given response SSH2_FX_OK instead of SSH2_FX_PERMISSION_DENIED when denied by above deny options. Default=[] PERMISSIONS ALL - All actions NET_SFTP_SYMLINKS - Symlinks in paths to files (recommended deny to enforce chroot) NET_SFTP_RENAME_DIR - Rename directories (recommended deny if also denying SSH2_FXP_MKDIR) SSH2_FXP_OPEN SSH2_FXP_CLOSE SSH2_FXP_READ SSH2_FXP_WRITE SSH2_FXP_LSTAT SSH2_FXP_STAT_VERSION_0 SSH2_FXP_FSTAT SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT - Automatically denied, not implemented in module SSH2_FXP_FSETSTAT - Automatically denied, not implemented in module SSH2_FXP_OPENDIR SSH2_FXP_READDIR SSH2_FXP_REMOVE SSH2_FXP_MKDIR SSH2_FXP_RMDIR SSH2_FXP_STAT SSH2_FXP_RENAME SSH2_FXP_READLINK - Automatically denied, not implemented in module SSH2_FXP_SYMLINK - Automatically denied, not implemented in module CALLBACKS Callback functions can be used to perform actions when files are sent or received, for example move a fully downloaded file to a processed directory or move a received file into an input directory. LOGGING If :LOG is used when including Net::SFTP::SftpServer the following logging functions will be available: logError - syslog with a log level of error logWarning - syslog with a log level of warning logGeneral - syslog with a log level of info logDetail - syslog with a log level of debug, unless object was created with debug=>1 then syslog with a level of info HARDENED EXAMPLE SCRIPT The following example script shows how this module can be used to give far greater control over what is allowed on your SFTP server. This setup is aimed at admins which want to user SFTP uploads but do not wish to grant users a system account. You will also need to set both the SFTP subsystem and the user's shell to the sftp script, eg /usr/local/bin/sftp-server.pl This configuration: * Enforces that users can only access the sftp script, not an ssh shell. * Chroots them into their home directory in /var/upload/sftp * Sets all file permissions to 0660 and does not permit users to change them. * Does not allow symlinks, making directories or renaming directories, but allows all other normal actions. * Has a max upload filesize of 200Mb * Has a script memory limit of 100Mb for safety * Will log actions by user sftptest in debug mode * Will only allow alphanumeric plus _ . and - in filenames * Will call ActionOnSent and ActionOnReceived respectively when files have been sent or received. #!/usr/local/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Net::SFTP::SftpServer ( { log => 'local5' }, qw ( :LOG :ACTIONS ) ); use BSD::Resource; # for setrlimit use constant DEBUG_USER => { SFTPTEST => 1, }; # Security - make sure we have started this as sftp not ssh unless ( scalar @ARGV == 2 and $ARGV[0] eq '-c' and ($ARGV[1] eq '/usr/local/bin/sftp-server.pl') ){ logError "SFTP connection attempted for application $ARGV[0] - exiting"; print "\n\rYou do not have permission to login interactively to this host.\n\r\n\rPlease contact the system administrator if you believe this to be a configuration error.\n\r"; exit 1; } my $MEMLIMIT = 100 * 1024 * 1024; # 100 Mb # hard limits on process memory usage; setrlimit( RLIMIT_RSS, $MEMLIMIT, $MEMLIMIT ); setrlimit( RLIMIT_VMEM, $MEMLIMIT, $MEMLIMIT ); my $debug = (defined DEBUG_USER->{uc(getpwuid($>))} and DEBUG_USER->{uc(getpwuid($>))}) ? 1 : 0; my $sftp = Net::SFTP::SftpServer->new( debug => $debug, home => '/var/upload/sftp', file_perms => 0660, on_file_sent => \&ActionOnSent, on_file_received => \&ActionOnReceived, use_tmp_upload => 1, max_file_size => 200 * 1024 * 1024, valid_filename_char => [ 'a' ..
