SV-60791r1_rule The rpcbind service must be configured for local only services.

Vulnerability discussion

The portmap and rpcbind services increase the attack surface of the system and should only be used when needed. The portmap or rpcbind services are used by a variety of services using remote procedure calls (RPCs).

Check content

Check the status of the rpcbind service local_only property. # svcprop -p config/local_only network/rpc/bind If the state is not "true", this is a finding.

Fix text

The Service Management profile is required. Configure the rpc/bind service for local only access. #svccfg -s network/rpc/bind setprop config/local_only=true

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.
