Secure application access by using package controls

How it is checked

Audit method: Manual review

This recommendation cannot be checked automatically. A scan lists it with these instructions when you pass --include-manual.

1. Issue the following SQL statement to determine the approved connection types for a specific package or a plan. SELECT PKS.SYSTEM, PKS.ENABLE, PKS.CNAME FROM SYSIBM.SYSPACKAGE PK, SYSIBM.SYSPKSYSTEM PKS WHERE PK.COLLID = PKS.COLLID AND PK.NAME = PKS.NAME; SELECT PLS.SYSTEM, PLS.ENABLE, PLS.CNAME FROM SYSIBM.SYSPLAN PL, SYSIBM.SYSPLSYSTEM PLS WHERE PL.NAME = PLS.NAME; 2. Review the output.

How it is fixed

Fix method: Guidance or infrastructure patch

Issue the BIND PACKAGE / BIND PLAN / REBIND PACKAGE / REBIND PLAN command with the ENABLE and DISABLE option to specify an approved connection type based on the rules of your organization.
