Vulnerability discussion

Configuring the DBMS to implement organization-wide security implementation guides and security checklists ensures compliance with federal standards and establishes a common security baseline across DoD that reflects the most restrictive security posture consistent with operational requirements. In addition to this SRG, sources of guidance on security and information assurance exist. These include NSA configuration guides, CTOs, DTMs, and IAVMs. The DBMS must be configured in compliance with guidance from all such relevant sources.

Check content

Obtain supporting documentation from the ISSO. Verify that this Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) is the most current STIG available for PostgreSQL on vROps. Assess all of the organization's vROps installations to ensure that they are fully compliant with the most current PostgreSQL STIG. If the PostgreSQL configuration is not compliant with the most current PostgreSQL STIG, this is a finding.

Fix text

Install the latest approved security-relevant software updates and document in the supporting documentation.
