SV-27309r1_rule The audit system must be configured to audit all discretionary access control permission modifications.

Vulnerability discussion

If the system is not configured to audit certain activities and write them to an audit log, it is more difficult to detect and track system compromises and damages incurred during a system compromise.

Check content

Check the system's audit configuration. # grep flags /etc/security/audit_control Confirm flags fm or +fm and -fm are configured.

Fix text

Edit /etc/security/audit_control and add fm to the flags list. Load the new audit configuration. # auditconfig -conf

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
