Solaris 11 SPARC Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • The system must not respond to ICMP broadcast timestamp requests.

    By accurately determining the system's clock state, an attacker can more effectively attack certain time-based pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) and the authentication systems that rely on them.
    Rule Low Severity
  • SRG-OS-000480

    Group
  • The system must not respond to ICMP broadcast netmask requests.

    By determining the netmasks of various computers in your network, an attacker can better map your subnet structure and infer trust relationships.
    Rule Low Severity
  • SRG-OS-000480

    Group
  • The system must not respond to broadcast ICMP echo requests.

    ICMP echo requests can be useful for reconnaissance of systems and for denial of service attacks.
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-OS-000480

    Group
  • The system must not respond to multicast echo requests.

    Multicast echo requests can be useful for reconnaissance of systems and for denial of service attacks.
    Rule Low Severity
  • SRG-OS-000480

    Group
  • SRG-OS-000480

    Group
  • The system must set strict multihoming.

    These settings control whether a packet arriving on a non-forwarding interface can be accepted for an IP address that is not explicitly configured on that interface. This rule is NA for documented...
    Rule Medium Severity

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.
