Description
The changing of file permissions could indicate that a user is attempting to gain access to information that would otherwise be disallowed. Auditing discretionary access control (DAC) modifications can facilitate the identification of patterns of abuse among both authorized and unauthorized users.

Who does this work

6 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-271595r1155316_chk)

Verify OL 9 generates an audit record for all uses of the umount2 system call with the following commands: $ sudo auditctl -l | grep umount2 -a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S umount2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=-1 -F key=privileged-umount -a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S umount2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=-1 -F key=privileged-umount If the command does not return an audit rule for "umount2" or any of the lines returned are commented out, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-75552r1092583_fix)

Configure the audit system to generate an audit event for any successful/unsuccessful use of the umount2 system call by adding the following rules to a rules file in /etc/audit/rules.d/ directory: (Example /etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules) -a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S umount2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -k perm_mod -a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S umount2 -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -k perm_mod The audit daemon must be restarted for the changes to take effect. Restart auditd: $ sudo service auditd restart
