Vulnerability discussion

Without auditing, individual system accesses cannot be tracked, and malicious activity cannot be detected and traced back to an individual account.

Check content

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global", this check applies. For each user on the system (not including root), check to see if special auditing flag configurations are set. # userattr audit_flags [username] If any flags are returned, this is a finding.

Fix text

The root role is required. This action applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global", this action applies. For each user on the system, remove all special audit configuration flags. # usermod -K audit_flags= [username]

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.
