SV-60959r1_rule Login services for serial ports must be disabled.

Vulnerability discussion

Login services should not be enabled on any serial ports that are not strictly required to support the mission of the system. This action can be safely performed even when console access is provided using a serial port.

Check content

Determine if terminal login services are disabled. # svcs -Ho state svc:/system/console-login:terma # svcs -Ho state svc:/system/console-login:termb If the system/console-login services are not "disabled", this is a finding.

Fix text

The Service Operator profile is required. Disable serial terminal services. # pfexec svcadm disable svc:/system/console-login:terma # pfexec svcadm disable svc:/system/console-login:termb

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.
