Description
Access Control Lists allow an object owner to expand permissions on an object to specific users and groups in addition to the standard permission model. Non-standard Access Control List settings can allow unauthorized users to modify critical files.

Who does this work

10 NICE work roles and 9 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-216441r959010_chk)

The root role is required. Identify all file system objects that have non-standard access control lists enabled. # find / \( -fstype nfs -o -fstype cachefs -o -fstype autofs \ -o -fstype ctfs -o -fstype mntfs -o -fstype objfs \ -o -fstype proc \) -prune -o -acl -ls This command should return no output. If output is created, this is a finding. If the files are approved to have ACLs by organizational security policy, document the files and the reason that ACLs are required.

Fix Text (F-17675r371412_fix)

The root role is required. Remove ACLs that are not approved in the security policy. For ZFS file systems, remove all extended ACLs with the following command: # chmod A- [filename] For UFS file systems Determine the ACLs that are set on a file: # getfacl [filename] Remove any ACL configurations that are set: # setfacl -d [ACL] [filename]
