Ensure no users have .netrc files

低等級 2人工審核cos

說明

The .netrc file contains data for logging into a remote host for file transfers via FTP. The .netrc file presents a significant security risk since it stores passwords in unencrypted form. Even if FTP is disabled, user accounts may have brought over .netrc files from other systems which could pose a risk to those systems.

修補方式

修補方法: 操作指南或基礎設施修補檔

Making global modifications to users' files without alerting the user community can result in unexpected outages and unhappy users. Therefore, it is recommended that a monitoring policy be established to report user .netrc files and determine the action to be taken in accordance with site policy.
