Check Text (C-216476r959010_chk)

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global", this check applies. List the non-global zones on the system. # zoneadm list -vi | grep -v global List the configuration for each zone. # zonecfg -z [zonename] info | grep dev Check for device lines. If such a line exists and is not approved by security, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-17710r371511_fix)

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing. # zonename If the command output is "global", this check applies. The Zone Security profile is required: Remove all device assignments from the non-global zone. # pfexec zonecfg -z [zone] delete device [device]
