Vulnerability discussion

Users should not have Apple ID's signed into iCloud.

Check content

To see if any user account has configured an Apple ID for iCloud usage, run the following command: sudo find /Users/ -name "MobileMeAccounts.plist" -exec defaults read '{}' \; If the results show any accounts listed, this is a finding.

Fix text

This must be manually resolved. With the affected user logged in, open System Preferences->iCloud. Choose "Sign Out".

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.
