Vulnerability discussion

In order to properly monitor the changes to the web server and the hosted applications, logging must be enabled. Along with logging being enabled, each record must properly contain the changes made and the names of those who made the changes.Allowing anonymous users the capability to change the web server or the hosted application will not generate proper log information that can then be used for forensic reporting in the case of a security issue. Allowing anonymous users to make changes will also grant change capabilities to anybody without forcing a user to authenticate before the changes can be made.

Check content

At the command prompt, execute the following command: ls -alR /opt/vmware/horizon/workspace | grep -E '^-' | awk '$1 !~ /---$/ {print}' If the command produces any output, this is a finding.

Fix text

At the command prompt, execute the following command: chmod 750 Repeat the command for each file that was returned. Note: Replace for the name of the file that was returned.

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.
