Vulnerability discussion

Protection of Lighttpd log data includes assuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Backing up Lighttpd log records to an unrelated system or onto separate media than the system the web server is actually running on helps to assure that, in the event of a catastrophic system failure, the log records will be retained.

Check content

Obtain supporting documentation from the ISSO. Determine whether log data and records are being backed up to a different system or separate media. If log data and records are not being backed up to a different system or separate media, this is a finding.

Fix text

Backup the log data and records to a different system or separate media.

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.
