The physical devices must not be assigned to non-global zones.

From SOLARIS 10 X86 SECURITY TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE

SV-27024r2_rule The physical devices must not be assigned to non-global zones.

Vulnerability discussion

Solaris non-global zones can be assigned physical hardware devices. This increases the risk of such a non-global zone having the capability to compromise the global zone.

Check content

If the system is not a global zone, this vulnerability is not applicable. List the non-global zones on the system. # zoneadm list -vi List the configuration for each zone. # zonecfg -z info Check for device lines. If such a line exists, this is a finding.

Fix text

Remove all device assignments from the non-global zone. # zonecfg -z remove device

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.
