Ensure there are no legacy + NIS entries in /etc/group
An XCCDF Rule
Description
The + character in /etc/group file marks a place where
entries from a network information service (NIS) should be directly inserted.
Rationale
Using this method to include entries into /etc/group is considered legacy
and should be avoided. These entries may provide a way for an attacker
to gain access to the system.
