SV-63577r1_rule The system must use an access control program.

Vulnerability discussion

Access control programs (such as TCP_WRAPPERS) provide the ability to enhance system security posture.

Check content

The tcp_wrappers package is provided with the operating system. Other access control programs may be available but will need to be checked manually. Determine if tcp_wrappers is installed. # rpm -qa | grep tcp_wrappers If no package is listed, this is a finding.

Fix text

Install and configure the tcp_wrappers package.

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.
