SV-40297r2_rule Samba must be configured to not allow guest access to shares.

Vulnerability discussion

Guest access to shares permits anonymous access and is not permitted.

Check content

Check the encryption setting for the Samba configuration. Default locations for this file include /etc, /etc/sfw, /etc/samba, and /etc/sfw/samba. If the system has Samba installed in non-standard locations, also check the smb.conf in those locations. Procedure: # grep -i 'guest ok' /etc/smb.conf /etc/sfw/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/sfw/samba/smb.conf If the setting exists and is set to yes, this is a finding.

Fix text

Edit the smb.conf file and change the guest ok setting to no.

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.
