Ensure modification to TE system is audited

How it is checked

Audit method: Shell command

out=$(grep -E "^[[:blank:]]*default[[:blank:]]*=" /etc/security/audit/config 2>/dev/null) || exit 1; r=compliant; for p in '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TE_Untrusted([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)' '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TE_FileWrite([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)' '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TE_Policies([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)' '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TEAdd_Stnz([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)' '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TEDel_Stnz([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)' '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TESwitch_algo([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)' '(=|,)[[:blank:]]*TEQuery_Stnz([[:blank:]]*,|[[:blank:]]*$)'; do printf '%s\n' "$out" | grep -Eq -- "$p" || r="missing: $p"; done; echo "$r"

Expected output

compliant

How it is fixed

Fix method: Guidance or infrastructure patch

Ensure AUDIT Trusted Execution events are in the class default. 1. Edit the file /etc/security/audit/config 2. Find the stanza named classes: 3. If the class default does not exist add a line with: default = TE_Untrusted,TE_FileWrite,TE_Policies,TEAdd_Stnz,TEDel_Stnz,TESwitch_algo,TEQ uery_Stnz 4. If the class default already exists ensure the following audit events are included in the class definition TE_Untrusted,TE_FileWrite,TE_Policies,TEAdd_Stnz,TEDel_Stnz,TESwitch_algo,TEQ uery_Stnz
