Signing source code using a vault device is described. An example method can include receiving, with a client device, source code that is to be committed to a repository. The method further can include sending, with a processing device to a vault device, a request to sign the source code. The method can further include receiving, from the vault device, a signed commit of the source code. In addition, the method can include pushing the source code and the signed commit to the repository, wherein the repository commits the source code and signed commit.

Commit signing service

A method for tracing function execution includes instantiating, by at least one hardware processor of a computing node, a user-defined function (UDF) server associated with a plurality of configurations. A plurality of child processes of the UDF server are instantiated using the plurality of configurations. A filtering process is configured at an operating system (OS) kernel of the computing node using a child process of the plurality of child processes. The filtering process includes a set of system call categories and a corresponding set of filtering policies. A system call received at the OS kernel and associated with a system call category of the set of system call categories is detected to violate a corresponding filtering policy of the set of filtering policies. A tracing event of the system call is initiated based on the detecting.

Tracing function execution in a database system

A method for tracing function execution includes instantiating, by at least one hardware processor of a computing node, a user code runtime configured with access to an operating system (OS) kernel of the computing node. The user code runtime is configured with a first set of filtering policies associated with a first set of allowed system calls. The OS kernel is configured with a second set of filtering policies associated with a second set of allowed system calls. A system call initiated by the user code runtime is detected to violate one or both of the first set of allowed system calls and the second set of allowed system calls. A trace of the system call is initiated based on the detecting.

A system includes at least one hardware processor of a computing node and at least one memory storing instructions that cause the at least one hardware processor to perform operations. The operations include instantiating a user code runtime to execute within a sandbox process. The sandbox process configures access by the user code runtime to an operating system (OS) kernel of the computing node. The OS kernel is configured with one or more filtering policies. A determination is performed of whether a system call received by the OS kernel violates the one or more filtering policies. The system call is triggered by at least one operation of the user code runtime. A tracing event is instantiated to trace execution of the system call based on the determination.

Tracing user-defined functions in a database system

Provided herein are systems and methods for tracing and tracing supervision of UDFs in a database system. For example, a method includes receiving a user-defined function (UDF), the UDF including code related to at least one operation to be performed. A user code runtime is instantiated to execute the code of the UDF as a child process. The user code runtime includes a filtering process configured with a plurality of filtering policies. A system call of the at least one operation is detected based on a notification from an operating system (OS) manager, the notification identifying the system call. A determination is made on whether performing the system call is permitted based on the plurality of filtering policies. A report is generated based on the determining.
