The Juniper SRX Services Gateway must ensure access to start a UNIX-level shell is restricted to only the root account.

Description
Restricting the privilege to create a UNIX-level shell limits access to this powerful function. System administrators, regardless of their other permissions, will need to also know the root password for this access, thus limiting the possibility of malicious or accidental circumvention of security controls.

Who does this work

5 NICE work roles and 5 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-223213r1043177_chk)

Verify each login class is configured to deny access to the UNIX shell. [edit] show system login If each configured login class is not configured to deny access to the UNIX shell, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-24874r513327_fix)

For each login class, add the following command to the stanza. [edit] set system login class <class name> deny-commands "(start shell)"
