Host must configure a session timeout for the API

보통레벨 1자동vmware

설명

A designated timeout ensures that sessions are not left open indefinitely, thereby reducing the exposure window for potential security threats. The parameter governing this behavior is Config.HostAgent.vmacore.soap.sessionTimeout with a recommended setting of 30 seconds. The audit reads Config.HostAgent.vmacore.soap.sessionTimeout with esxcli and requires the recommended 30 or less (0 disables the timeout and fails). Runs in the ESXi Shell (busybox sh) as root.

감사 방식: 셸 명령

shell

out=$(esxcli system settings advanced list -o /Config/HostAgent/vmacore/soap/sessionTimeout 2>/dev/null) || exit 1
v=$(printf '%s\n' "$out" | awk '$1=="Int" && $2=="Value:" {print $3; exit}')
case "$v" in ''|*[!0-9-]*) echo '/Config/HostAgent/vmacore/soap/sessionTimeout: no integer value'; exit 1 ;; esac
if [ "$v" -gt 0 ] && [ "$v" -le 30 ]; then echo compliant; else echo "/Config/HostAgent/vmacore/soap/sessionTimeout = $v (expected 1-30)"; fi

예상 출력: compliant
