Ensure no duplicate GIDs exist

MoyenneNiveau 1Automatiséefreebsd

Description

Although the pw program will not let you create a duplicate Group ID (GID), it is possible for an administrator to manually edit the /etc/group file and change the GID field. User groups must be assigned unique GIDs for accountability and to ensure appropriate access protections. Audit: automated read-only check derived from the CIS audit procedure; it prints "compliant" when the control is met.

Méthode de vérification

Méthode d'audit: Commande shell

shell

command -v cut >/dev/null 2>&1 || exit 1; out=$( { cut -d: -f3 /etc/group | sort -n | uniq -d ; } 2>/dev/null ); [ -z "$out" ] && echo compliant || printf '%s\n' "$out" | head -n 20

Sortie attendue: compliant

Méthode de correction

Méthode de correction: Recommandation ou correctif d'infrastructure

Based on the audit script's results, establish unique GIDs and review all files owned by the shared GID to determine which group they are supposed to belong to.
