The HYCU virtual appliance must generate audit records containing the full-text recording of privileged commands.
Overview
| Finding ID | Version | Rule ID | IA Controls | Severity |

| Description |
| Reconstruction of harmful events or forensic analysis is not possible if audit records do not contain enough information. Organizations consider limiting the additional audit information to only that information explicitly needed for specific audit requirements. The additional information required is dependent on the type of information (i.e., sensitivity of the data and the environment within which it resides). At a minimum, the organization must audit full-text recording of privileged commands. The organization must maintain audit trails in sufficient detail to reconstruct events to determine the cause and impact of compromise. |

| Check Text (C-72267r1038436_chk) |
| Check if HYCU is configured to audit the execution of the "execve" system call, by running the following command: $ sudo grep execve /etc/audit/audit.rules -a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S execve -C uid!=euid -F euid=0 -k execpriv -a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S execve -C uid!=euid -F euid=0 -k execpriv -a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S execve -C gid!=egid -F egid=0 -k execpriv -a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S execve -C gid!=egid -F egid=0 -k execpriv If the command does not return all lines, or the lines are commented out, this is a finding. |
| Fix Text (F-72170r1038437_fix) |
| Configure HYCU to audit the execution of the "execve" system call. Add or update the following file system rules to "/etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules": -a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S execve -C uid!=euid -F euid=0 -k execpriv -a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S execve -C uid!=euid -F euid=0 -k execpriv -a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S execve -C gid!=egid -F egid=0 -k execpriv -a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S execve -C gid!=egid -F egid=0 -k execpriv Reboot the appliance to take effect. |
