Host must unlock accounts after a specified timeout period

СреднийУровень 1Автоматическаяvmware

Описание

Ensuring that user accounts on the ESXi host are automatically unlocked after a specified period contributes to a balance between security and operational usability. This mechanism reactivates idle accounts promptly while mitigating potential unauthorized access risks. The audit reads Security.AccountUnlockTime with esxcli and requires 900 seconds. Runs in the ESXi Shell (busybox sh) as root.

Как проверяется

Метод проверки: Команда оболочки

shell

out=$(esxcli system settings advanced list -o /Security/AccountUnlockTime 2>/dev/null) || exit 1
v=$(printf '%s\n' "$out" | awk '$1=="Int" && $2=="Value:" {print $3; exit}')
case "$v" in ''|*[!0-9-]*) echo '/Security/AccountUnlockTime: no integer value'; exit 1 ;; esac
if [ "$v" -eq 900 ]; then echo compliant; else echo "/Security/AccountUnlockTime = $v (expected 900)"; fi

Ожидаемый вывод: compliant
