PCI-DSS v4.0 Control Baseline for Anolis OS 23

Rules and Groups employed by this XCCDF Profile

  • Network Related Kernel Runtime Parameters for Hosts and Routers

    Certain kernel parameters should be set for systems which are acting as either hosts or routers to improve the system's ability defend against certain types of IPv4 protocol attacks.

  • Enable Kernel Parameter to Use Reverse Path Filtering on all IPv4 Interfaces

    To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter=1</pre> To make sure that th...

  • Enable Kernel Parameter to Ignore Bogus ICMP Error Responses on IPv4 Interfaces

    To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv4.icmp_ignore_bogus_error_responses</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.icmp_ignore_bogus_error_response...
    Rule Unknown Severity
  • Enable Kernel Parameter to Use TCP Syncookies on Network Interfaces

    To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies=1</pre> To make sure that the settin...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Network Parameters for Hosts Only

    If the system is not going to be used as a router, then setting certain kernel parameters ensure that the host will not perform routing of network traffic.
    Group
  • Disable Kernel Parameter for Sending ICMP Redirects on all IPv4 Interfaces

    To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects=0</pre> To make su...

    Rule Medium Severity
  • Disable Kernel Parameter for IP Forwarding on IPv4 Interfaces

    To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv4.ip_forward</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=0</pre> To make sure that the setting is per...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • Uncommon Network Protocols

    The system includes support for several network protocols which are not commonly used. Although security vulnerabilities in kernel networking code are not frequently discovered, the consequences ca...
    Group
  • Disable DCCP Support

    The Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) is a relatively new transport layer protocol, designed to support streaming media and telephony. To configure the system to prevent the <code>dccp</...

  • Wireless Networking

    Wireless networking, such as 802.11 (WiFi) and Bluetooth, can present a security risk to sensitive or classified systems and networks. Wireless networking hardware is much more likely to be include...
    Group
  • Disable Wireless Through Software Configuration

    If it is impossible to remove the wireless hardware from the device in question, disable as much of it as possible through software. The following methods can disable software support for wireless ...

  • File Permissions and Masks

    Traditional Unix security relies heavily on file and directory permissions to prevent unauthorized users from reading or modifying files to which they should not have access. <br> <br> Severa...
    Group
  • Verify Permissions on Important Files and Directories

    Permissions for many files on a system must be set restrictively to ensure sensitive information is properly protected. This section discusses important permission restrictions which can be verifie...
    Group
  • Verify that All World-Writable Directories Have Sticky Bits Set

    When the so-called 'sticky bit' is set on a directory, only the owner of a given file may remove that file from the directory. Without the sticky bit, any user with write access to a directory may ...

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.
