MariaDB Enterprise 10.x Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • MariaDB must automatically terminate a user's session after organization-defined conditions or trigger events requiring session disconnect.

    This addresses the termination of user-initiated logical sessions in contrast to the termination of network connections that are associated with communications sessions (i.e., network disconnect). ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must associate organization-defined types of security labels having organization-defined security label values with information in storage.

    Without the association of security labels to information, there is no basis for MariaDB to make security-related access-control decisions. Security labels are abstractions representing the basic ...

  • MariaDB must associate organization-defined types of security labels having organization-defined security label values with information in process.

    Without the association of security labels to information, there is no basis for MariaDB to make security-related access-control decisions. Security labels are abstractions representing the basic ...

  • MariaDB must associate organization-defined types of security labels having organization-defined security label values with information in transmission.

    Without the association of security labels to information, there is no basis for MariaDB to make security-related access-control decisions. Security labels are abstractions representing the basic ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Execution of software modules (to include stored procedures, functions, and triggers) with elevated privileges must be restricted to necessary cases only.

    In certain situations, to provide required functionality, MariaDB needs to execute internal logic (stored procedures, functions, triggers, etc.) and/or external code modules with elevated privilege...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.

    To ensure sufficient storage capacity for the audit logs, MariaDB must be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. Although another requirement (SRG-APP-000515-DB-000318) mandates that audit...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must provide a warning to appropriate support staff when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of maximum audit record storage capacity.

    Organizations are required to use a central log management system, so, under normal conditions, the audit space allocated to the DBMS on its own server will not be an issue. However, space will sti...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must prohibit user installation of logic modules (stored procedures, functions, triggers, views, etc.) without explicit privileged status.

    Allowing regular users to install software, without explicit privileges, creates the risk that untested or potentially malicious software will be installed on the system. Explicit privileges (escal...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must produce audit records of its enforcement of access restrictions associated with changes to the configuration of the DBMS or database(s).

    Without auditing the enforcement of access restrictions against changes to configuration, it would be difficult to identify attempted attacks and an audit trail would not be available for forensic ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • MariaDB must require users to reauthenticate when organization-defined circumstances or situations require reauthentication.

    The DOD standard for authentication of an interactive user is the presentation of a Common Access Card (CAC) or other physical token bearing a valid, current, DOD-issued Public Key Infrastructure (...

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
