PostgreSQL
TMA-POSTGRES-5.6
Ensure Password Complexity is configured
Mô tả
Password complexity configuration is crucial to restrict unauthorized access to data. By default, PostgreSQL doesn't provide for password complexity. Moreover, many compliance frameworks such as PCI DSS, and HIPPA require both password complexity and length.
Cách kiểm tra
Phương pháp kiểm tra: Xem xét thủ công
Run SHOW shared_preload_libraries; and SHOW dynamic_library_path; If $libdir/passwordcheck (or passwordcheck when dynamic_library_path is $libdir) is not listed in shared_preload_libraries, this is a failure.
Cách khắc phục
Phương pháp khắc phục: Hướng dẫn hoặc bản vá hạ tầng
Add '$libdir/passwordcheck' to shared_preload_libraries in postgresql.conf (keep existing entries), optionally set passwordcheck.min_password_length, and restart PostgreSQL.
