Details
Check Text (C-258009r1045077_chk)
Verify the SSH daemon provides users with feedback on when account accesses last occurred with the following command:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -dd 2>&1 | awk '/filename/ {print $4}' | tr -d '\r' | tr '\n' ' ' | xargs sudo grep -iH '^\s*printlastlog'
PrintLastLog yes
If the "PrintLastLog" keyword is set to "no", the returned line is commented out, or no output is returned, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-61674r1045076_fix)
Configure the SSH daemon to provide users with feedback on when account accesses last occurred.
Add the following line to "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" or to a file in "/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d", or uncomment the line and set the value to "yes":
PrintLastLog yes
The SSH service must be restarted for changes to take effect:
$ sudo systemctl restart sshd.service
