Check: GEN003245
Solaris 10 X86 STIG:
GEN003245
(in versions v2 r4 through v1 r17)
Title
The at.allow file must not have an extended ACL. (Cat II impact)
Discussion
File system extended ACLs provide access to files beyond what is allowed by the mode numbers of the files. Unauthorized modification of the at.allow file could result in Denial of Service to authorized at users and the granting of the ability to run at jobs to unauthorized users.
Check Content
Check the permissions of the file. # ls -lL /etc/cron.d/at.allow 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/cron.d/at.allow
