Check: GEN006210
Solaris 10 X86 STIG:
GEN006210
(in versions v2 r4 through v1 r17)
Title
The smbpasswd file must not have an extended ACL. (Cat II impact)
Discussion
If the permissions of the smbpasswd file are too permissive, the smbpasswd file may be maliciously accessed or modified, potentially resulting in the compromise of Samba accounts.
Check Content
Check the group ownership of the Samba configuration file. # ls -lL /etc/sfw/private/smbpasswd If the permissions include a "+", the file has an extended ACL and this is a finding.
Fix Text
Remove the extended ACL from the file. # chmod A- /etc/sfw/private/smbpasswd
