Base Services
1 Rule
This section addresses the base services that are installed on a Fedora default installation which are not covered in other sections. Some of these services listen on the network and should be treated with particular discretion. Other services are local system utilities that may or may not be extraneous. In general, system services should be disabled if not required.
Uninstall Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (abrt)
Medium Severity
The Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (
abrt
) collects and reports crash data when an application crash is detected. Using a variety of plugins, abrt can email crash reports to system administrators, log crash reports to files, or forward crash reports to a centralized issue tracking system such as RHTSupport. The
abrt
package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo dnf erase abrt
