The Oracle Linux operating system must audit all uses of the ssh-keysign command.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>Reconstruction of harmful events or forensic analysis is not possible if audit records do not contain enough information. At a minimum, the organization must audit the full-text recording of privileged ssh commands. The organization must maintain audit trails in sufficient detail to reconstruct events to determine the cause and impact of compromise. When a user logs on, the auid is set to the uid of the account that is being authenticated. Daemons are not user sessions and have the loginuid set to -1. The auid representation is an unsigned 32-bit integer, which equals 4294967295. The audit system interprets -1, 4294967295, and "unset" in the same way.

Configure the operating system to generate audit records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to use the "ssh-keysign" command occur.
Add or update the following rule in "/etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules":
-a always,exit -F path=/usr/libexec/openssh/ssh-keysign -F perm=x -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -k privileged-ssh
