TMA-SAFARI-6.3
Ensure 'Block pop-up windows' is 'Enabled'
Beschreibung
The Block pop-up windows feature is used to block pop-up windows which a website might open with or without any user interaction. Pop-ups can be used to open un-trusted malicious content. It is recommended that the Popup Blocker be enabled. Rationale: By enabling Block pop-up windows, pop-ups will be blocked which will reduce the likelihood of being redirected to a malicious site. Audit reads WebKitJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically from the com.apple.Safari preference domain of the account running the scan (the PDF checks the same token in com.apple.Safari.plist; manual check: Follow the below steps and verify that Block pop-up windows is Enabled: 1. Click Safari. 2. Click Preferences. 3. Click Security. 4. Verify Block pop-up windows is checked). Safari is sandboxed, so the reading process needs Full Disk Access on macOS 10.14+. A missing key exits non-zero and is reported as FAIL even where the built-in default is compliant. Values forced by a configuration profile live in /Library/Managed Preferences and are not read here.
