SV-61067r1_rule The operating system must terminate all sessions and network connections when non-local maintenance is completed.

Vulnerability discussion

Non-local maintenance and diagnostic activities are those activities conducted by individuals communicating through a network, either an external network (e.g., the Internet) or an internal network. The operating system needs to ensure all sessions and network connections are terminated when non-local maintenance is completed.

Check content

Determine if SSH is configured to disconnect sessions after 10 minutes of inactivity. # grep ClientAlive /etc/ssh/sshd_config If the output of this command is not: ClientAliveInterval 600 ClientAliveCountMax 0 this is a finding.

Fix text

The root role is required. Configure the system to disconnect SSH sessions after 10 minutes of inactivity. # pfedit /etc/ssh/sshd_config Insert the two lines: ClientAliveInterval 600 ClientAliveCountMax 0 Restart the SSH service with the new configuration. # svcadm restart svc:/network/ssh

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.
