title: "Configure Audit Log Folders to Mode 700 or Less Permissive"
|
|
discussion: |
|
|
The audit log folder _MUST_ be configured to mode 700 or less permissive so that only the root user is able to read, write, and execute changes to folders.
|
|
|
|
Because audit logs contain sensitive data about the system and users, the audit service _MUST_ be configured to mode 700 or less permissive; thereby preventing normal users from reading, modifying or deleting audit logs.
|
|
check: |
|
|
/usr/bin/stat -f %A $(/usr/bin/grep '^dir' /etc/security/audit_control | /usr/bin/awk -F: '{print $2}')
|
|
result:
|
|
integer: 700
|
|
fix: |
|
|
[source,bash]
