ObjectOpenAuditAlarm

The ObjectOpenAuditAlarm function generates audit messages when a client application attempts to gain access to an object or to create a new one. Alarms are not currently supported.

BOOL ObjectOpenAuditAlarm(
  LPCTSTR SubsystemName,                    // subsystem name
  LPVOID HandleId,                          // handle to object
  LPTSTR ObjectTypeName,                    // object type
  LPTSTR ObjectName,                        // object name
  PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR pSecurityDescriptor, // SD
  HANDLE ClientToken,                       // handle to access token
  DWORD DesiredAccess,                      // desired access rights
  DWORD GrantedAccess,                      // granted access rights
  PPRIVILEGE_SET Privileges,                // privileges
  BOOL ObjectCreation,                      // object creation option
  BOOL AccessGranted,                       // results
  LPBOOL GenerateOnClose                    // audit generation
);

Parameters

SubsystemName

[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string specifying the name of the subsystem calling the function. This string appears in any audit message that the function generates.

HandleId

[in] Pointer to a unique value representing the client's handle of the object. If the access is denied, this parameter is ignored.

ObjectTypeName

[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string specifying the type of object to which the client is requesting access. This string appears in any audit message that the function generates.

ObjectName

[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string specifying the name of the object to which the client is requesting access. This string appears in any audit message that the function generates.

pSecurityDescriptor

[in] Pointer to the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure for the object being accessed.

ClientToken

[in] Identifies an access token representing the client requesting the operation. This handle must be obtained by opening the token of a thread impersonating the client. The token must be open for TOKEN_QUERY access.

DesiredAccess

[in] Specifies the desired access mask. This mask must have been previously mapped by the MapGenericMask function to contain no generic access rights.

GrantedAccess

[in] Specifies an access mask indicating which access rights are granted. This access mask is intended to be the same value set by one of the access-checking functions in its GrantedAccess parameter. Examples of access-checking functions include AccessCheckAndAuditAlarm and AccessCheck.

Privileges

[in] Pointer to a PRIVILEGE_SET structure that specifies the set of privileges required for the access attempt. This parameter can be NULL.

ObjectCreation

[in] Specifies a flag that determines whether the application creates a new object when access is granted. When this value is TRUE, the application creates a new object; when it is FALSE, the application opens an existing object.

AccessGranted

[in] Specifies a flag indicating whether access was granted or denied in a previous call to an access-checking function, such as AccessCheck. If access was granted, this value is TRUE. If not, it is FALSE.

GenerateOnClose

[out] Pointer to a flag set by the audit-generation routine when the function returns. This value must be passed to the ObjectCloseAuditAlarm function when the object handle is closed.

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

The ObjectOpenAuditAlarm function requires the calling application to have the SE_AUDIT_NAME privilege enabled. The test for this privilege is always performed against the primary token of the calling process, not the impersonation token of the thread. This allows the calling process to impersonate a client during the call.

Requirements

  Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows NT 3.1 or later.
  Header: Declared in Winbase.h; include Windows.h.
  Library: Use Advapi32.lib.
  Unicode: Implemented as Unicode and ANSI versions on Windows NT/2000.
