Check: GEN001210

Solaris 10 X86 STIG: GEN001210 (in versions v2 r4 through v1 r17)

Title

All system command files must not have extended ACLs. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

Restricting permissions will protect system command files from unauthorized modification. System command files include files present in directories used by the operating system for storing default system executables and files present in directories included in the system's default executable search paths.

Check Content

Verify all system command files have no extended ACLs. # ls -lL /etc /bin /usr/bin /usr/lbin /usr/ucb /sbin /usr/sbin If the permissions include a "+", the file has an extended ACL, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Remove the extended ACL from the file. # chmod A- [file with extended ACL]
