Check Content

Log on to the OS of the JBoss server with OS permissions that allow access to JBoss. Using the relevant OS commands and syntax, cd to the <JBOSS_HOME>/bin/ folder. Run the jboss-cli script to start the Command Line Interface (CLI). Connect to the server and authenticate. Run the command: For a Managed Domain configuration: "ls host=master/server=<SERVERNAME>/core-service=management/access=audit/logger=audit-log:write-attribute(name=enabled,value=true)" For a Standalone configuration: "ls /core-service=management/access=audit/logger=audit-log:write-attribute(name=enabled,value=true)" If "enabled" = false, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Launch the jboss-cli management interface. Connect to the server by typing "connect", authenticate as a user in the Superuser role and run the following command: For a Managed Domain configuration: "host=master/server/<SERVERNAME>/core-service=management/access=audit/logger=audit-log:write-attribute(name=enabled,value=true)" For a Standalone configuration: "/core-service=management/access=audit/logger=audit-log:write-attribute(name=enabled,value=true)"
