  <ns0:title xml:lang="en-US">Guide to the Secure Configuration of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6</ns0:title>
  <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">This guide presents a catalog of security-relevant
configuration settings for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. It is a rendering of
content structured in the eXtensible Configuration Checklist Description Format (XCCDF)
in order to support security automation.  The SCAP content is
is available in the <html:code>scap-security-guide</html:code> package which is developed at
<html:a href="https://www.open-scap.org/security-policies/scap-security-guide">https://www.open-scap.org/security-policies/scap-security-guide</html:a>.
<html:br />
<html:br />
Providing system administrators with such guidance informs them how to securely
configure systems under their control in a variety of network roles. Policy
makers and baseline creators can use this catalog of settings, with its
associated references to higher-level security control catalogs, in order to
assist them in security baseline creation. This guide is a <html:i>catalog, not a
checklist,</html:i> and satisfaction of every item is not likely to be possible or
sensible in many operational scenarios. However, the XCCDF format enables
granular selection and adjustment of settings, and their association with OVAL
and OCIL content provides an automated checking capability. Transformations of
this document, and its associated automated checking content, are capable of
providing baselines that meet a diverse set of policy objectives. Some example
XCCDF <html:i>Profiles</html:i>, which are selections of items that form checklists and
can be used as baselines, are available with this guide. They can be
processed, in an automated fashion, with tools that support the Security
Content Automation Protocol (SCAP). The DISA STIG for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6,
which provides required settings for US Department of Defense systems, is
one example of a baseline created from this guidance.

  <ns0:notice id="centos_warning"><html:div>
<html:p>This benchmark is a direct port of a <html:i>SCAP Security Guide </html:i> benchmark developed for <html:i>Red Hat Enterprise Linux</html:i>. It has been modified through an automated process to remove specific dependencies on <html:i>Red Hat Enterprise Linux</html:i> and to function with <html:i>CentOS</html:i>. The result is a generally useful <html:i>SCAP Security Guide</html:i> benchmark with the following caveats:</html:p>
<html:ul>
<html:li><html:i>CentOS</html:i> is not an exact copy of <html:i>Red Hat Enterprise Linux</html:i>. There may be configuration differences that produce false positives and/or false negatives. If this occurs please file a bug report.</html:li>

<html:li><html:i>CentOS</html:i> has its own build system, compiler options, patchsets, and is a community supported, non-commercial operating system. <html:i>CentOS</html:i> does not inherit certifications or evaluations from <html:i>Red Hat Enterprise Linux</html:i>. As such, some configuration rules (such as those requiring <html:i>FIPS 140-2</html:i> encryption) will continue to fail on <html:i>CentOS</html:i>.</html:li>
</html:ul>

<html:p>Members of the <html:i>CentOS</html:i> community are invited to participate in <html:a href="http://open-scap.org">OpenSCAP</html:a> and <html:a href="https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide">SCAP Security Guide</html:a> development. Bug reports and patches can be sent to GitHub: <html:a href="https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide">https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide</html:a>.

      <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">Function to fix syscall audit rule for given system call. It is
based on example audit syscall rule definitions as outlined in
/usr/share/doc/audit-2.3.7/stig.rules file provided with the audit package. It
will combine multiple system calls belonging to the same syscall group into one
audit rule (rather than to create audit rule per different system call) to
avoid audit infrastructure performance penalty in the case of
'one-audit-rule-definition-per-one-system-call'. See:

	https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2014-November/msg00009.html

  * full form of new rule to add        expected full form of audit rule as to
                                        be added into audit.rules file

Note: The 2-th up to 4-th arguments are used to determine how many existing
audit rules will be inspected for resemblance with the new audit rule
(5-th argument) the function is going to add. The rule's similarity check
is performed to optimize audit.rules definition (merge syscalls of the same
group into one rule) to avoid the "single-syscall-per-audit-rule" performance
penalty.

Data transmitted over a network, whether wired or wireless, is susceptible
to passive monitoring. Whenever practical solutions for encrypting
such data exist, they should be applied. Even if data is expected to
be transmitted only over a local network, it should still be encrypted.
Encrypting authentication data, such as passwords, is particularly
important. Networks of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 machines can and should be configured

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">
The simplest way to avoid vulnerabilities in software is to avoid
installing that software. On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6,
the RPM Package Manager (originally Red Hat
Package Manager, abbreviated RPM)
allows for careful management of
the set of software packages installed on a system. Installed software
contributes to system vulnerability in several ways. Packages that
include setuid programs may provide local attackers a potential path to
privilege escalation. Packages that include network services may give
this opportunity to network-based attackers. Packages that include
programs which are predictably executed by local users (e.g. after
graphical login) may provide opportunities for trojan horses or other
attack code to be run undetected. The number of software packages
installed on a system can almost always be significantly pruned to include
only the software for which there is an environmental or operational need.

Several tools exist which can be effectively used to improve a system's

logins on server systems to only those administrators who need to log into them in
order to perform administration tasks. Using SELinux also follows the principle of
least privilege: SELinux policy can confine software to perform only actions on the
system that are specifically allowed. This can be far more restrictive than the
actions permissible by the traditional Unix permissions model.

          <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 natively supports partition encryption through the
Linux Unified Key Setup-on-disk-format (LUKS) technology. The easiest way to 
encrypt a partition is during installation time.
<html:br /><html:br />
For manual installations, select the <html:code>Encrypt</html:code> checkbox during
partition creation to encrypt the partition. When this
option is selected the system will prompt for a passphrase to use in
decrypting the partition. The passphrase will subsequently need to be entered manually
every time the system boots.
<html:br /><html:br />
For automated/unattended installations, it is possible to use Kickstart by adding
the <html:code>--encrypted</html:code> and <html:code>--passphrase=</html:code> options to the definition of each partition to be
encrypted. For example, the following line would encrypt the root partition:
<html:pre>part / --fstype=ext3 --size=100 --onpart=hda1 --encrypted --passphrase=<html:i>PASSPHRASE</html:i></html:pre>
Any <html:i>PASSPHRASE</html:i> is stored in the Kickstart in plaintext, and the Kickstart must then be protected accordingly.
Omitting the <html:code>--passphrase=</html:code> option from the partition definition will cause the
installer to pause and interactively ask for the passphrase during installation.
<html:br /><html:br />
Detailed information on encrypting partitions using LUKS can be found on
the Red Hat Documentation web site:<html:br />

Both the AIDE (Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment)

AIDE uses snapshots of file metadata (such as hashes) and compares these

The RPM package management system can conduct integrity
checks by comparing information in its metadata database with
files installed on the system.

Integrity checking cannot <html:i>prevent</html:i> intrusions,
but can detect that they have occurred. Requirements
for software integrity checking may be highly dependent on

The

Because users should be trained to lock the screen when they
step away from the computer, the automatic locking feature is only

also be dragged to the taskbar in order to facilitate even more

a number of different thumbnailer programs to generate thumbnails
for any new or modified content in an opened folder. The following
command can disable the execution of these thumbnail applications:

  --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory \

malicious file would exploit the thumbnailer with the potential for malicious code execution. It
is best to disable these thumbnailer applications unless they are explicitly required.</ns0:rationale>

          <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">When the so-called 'sticky bit' is set on a directory,
only the owner of a given file may remove that file from the
directory. Without the sticky bit, any user with write access to a
directory may remove any file in the directory. Setting the sticky
bit prevents users from removing each other's files. In cases where
there is no reason for a directory to be world-writable, a better
solution is to remove that permission rather than to set the sticky
bit. However, if a directory is used by a particular application,
consult that application's documentation instead of blindly
changing modes.
<html:br />
To set the sticky bit on a world-writable directory <html:i>DIR</html:i>, run the
following command:
<html:pre>$ sudo chmod +t <html:i>DIR</html:i></html:pre>

Failing to set the sticky bit on public directories allows unauthorized users to delete files in the directory structure.
<html:br /><html:br />
The only authorized public directories are those temporary directories supplied with the system, 
or those designed to be temporary file repositories.  The setting is normally reserved for directories 
used by the system, by users for temporary file storage (such as <html:code>/tmp</html:code>), and for directories 
requiring global read/write access.

      <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">SELinux is a feature of the Linux kernel which can be
used to guard against misconfigured or compromised programs.
SELinux enforces the idea that programs should be limited in what
files they can access and what actions they can take.
<html:br /><html:br />
The default SELinux policy, as configured on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, has been
sufficiently developed and debugged that it should be usable on
almost any Red Hat machine with minimal configuration and a small
amount of system administrator training. This policy prevents
system services - including most of the common network-visible
services such as mail servers, FTP servers, and DNS servers - from
accessing files which those services have no valid reason to
access. This action alone prevents a huge amount of possible damage
from network attacks against services, from trojaned software, and
so forth.
<html:br /><html:br />
This guide recommends that SELinux be enabled using the
default (targeted) policy on every Red Hat system, unless that
system has unusual requirements which make a stronger policy
appropriate.

providing a username and password to a login program, which tests
these values for correctness using the <html:code>/etc/passwd</html:code> and

guessing of weak passwords, and to sniffing and man-in-the-middle

          <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">
Direct root logins should be allowed only for emergency use.
In normal situations, the administrator should access the system
via a unique unprivileged account, and then use <html:code>su</html:code> or <html:code>sudo</html:code> to execute
privileged commands. Discouraging administrators from accessing the
root account directly ensures an audit trail in organizations with
multiple administrators. Locking down the channels through which
root can connect directly also reduces opportunities for
password-guessing against the root account. The <html:code>login</html:code> program
uses the file <html:code>/etc/securetty</html:code> to determine which interfaces
should allow root logins.

The virtual devices <html:code>/dev/console</html:code>
and <html:code>/dev/tty*</html:code> represent the system consoles (accessible via
the Ctrl-Alt-F1 through Ctrl-Alt-F6 keyboard sequences on a default
installation). The default securetty file also contains <html:code>/dev/vc/*</html:code>.
These are likely to be deprecated in most environments, but may be retained
for compatibility. Root should also be prohibited from connecting
via network protocols. Other sections of this document
include guidance describing how to prevent root from logging in via SSH.

          <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">The file <html:code>/etc/login.defs</html:code> controls several
password-related settings. Programs such as <html:code>passwd</html:code>,
<html:code>su</html:code>, and
<html:code>login</html:code> consult <html:code>/etc/login.defs</html:code> to determine
behavior with regard to password aging, expiration warnings,
and length. See the man page <html:code>login.defs(5)</html:code> for more information.
<html:br /><html:br />
Users should be forced to change their passwords, in order to
decrease the utility of compromised passwords. However, the need to
change passwords often should be balanced against the risk that
users will reuse or write down passwords if forced to change them
too often. Forcing password changes every 90-360 days, depending on
the environment, is recommended. Set the appropriate value as
<html:code>PASS_MAX_DAYS</html:code> and apply it to existing accounts with the
<html:code>-M</html:code> flag.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>PASS_MIN_DAYS</html:code> (<html:code>-m</html:code>) setting prevents password
changes for 7 days after the first change, to discourage password
cycling. If you use this setting, train users to contact an administrator
for an emergency password change in case a new password becomes
compromised. The <html:code>PASS_WARN_AGE</html:code> (<html:code>-W</html:code>) setting gives
users 7 days of warnings at login time that their passwords are about to expire.
<html:br /><html:br />
For example, for each existing human user <html:i>USER</html:i>, expiration parameters
could be adjusted to a 180 day maximum password age, 7 day minimum password
age, and 7 day warning period with the following command:
<html:pre>$ sudo chage -M 180 -m 7 -W 7 USER</html:pre>

A value of 35 is recommended.  
If a password is currently on the
verge of expiration, then 35 days remain until the account is automatically
disabled. However, if the password will not expire for another 60 days, then 95
days could elapse until the account would be automatically disabled. See the
<html:code>useradd</html:code> man page for more information.  Determining the inactivity
timeout must be done with careful consideration of the length of a "normal"
period of inactivity for users in the particular environment. Setting
the timeout too low incurs support costs and also has the potential to impact
availability of the system to legitimate users.

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">PAM, or Pluggable Authentication Modules, is a system
which implements modular authentication for Linux programs. PAM provides
a flexible and configurable architecture for authentication, and it should be configured
to minimize exposure to unnecessary risk. This section contains
guidance on how to accomplish that.
<html:br /><html:br />
PAM is implemented as a set of shared objects which are
loaded and invoked whenever an application wishes to authenticate a
user. Typically, the application must be running as root in order
to take advantage of PAM, because PAM's modules often need to be able
to access sensitive stores of account information, such as /etc/shadow.
Traditional privileged network listeners
(e.g. sshd) or SUID programs (e.g. sudo) already meet this
requirement. An SUID root application, userhelper, is provided so
that programs which are not SUID or privileged themselves can still
take advantage of PAM.
<html:br /><html:br />
PAM looks in the directory <html:code>/etc/pam.d</html:code> for
application-specific configuration information. For instance, if
the program login attempts to authenticate a user, then PAM's
libraries follow the instructions in the file <html:code>/etc/pam.d/login</html:code>
to determine what actions should be taken.
<html:br /><html:br />
One very important file in <html:code>/etc/pam.d</html:code> is
<html:code>/etc/pam.d/system-auth</html:code>. This file, which is included by
many other PAM configuration files, defines 'default' system authentication
measures. Modifying this file is a good way to make far-reaching
authentication changes, for instance when implementing a
centralized authentication service.</ns0:description>
        <ns0:warning category="general" xml:lang="en-US">Be careful when making changes to PAM's
configuration files. The syntax for these files is complex, and
modifications can have unexpected consequences. The default
configurations shipped with applications should be sufficient for

        <ns0:warning category="general" xml:lang="en-US">Running <html:code>authconfig</html:code> or

Setting the password retry prompts that are permitted on a per-session basis to a low value
requires some software, such as SSH, to re-connect. This can slow down and
draw additional attention to some types of password-guessing attacks. Note that this

configures the user's session by reading a number of files. Many of

an attacker can modify or even read certain types of account

The umask setting controls the default permissions

With a default <html:code>umask</html:code> setting of 077, files and directories
created by users will not be readable by any other user on the
system. Users who wish to make specific files group- or
world-readable can accomplish this by using the chmod command.
Additionally, users can make all their files readable to their
group by default by setting a <html:code>umask</html:code> of 027 in their shell
configuration files. If default per-user groups exist (that is, if
every user has a default group whose name is the same as that
user's username and whose only member is the user), then it may
even be safe for users to select a <html:code>umask</html:code> of 007, making it very
easy to intentionally share files with groups of which the user is
a member.

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">Each system should expose as little information about
itself as possible.
<html:br /><html:br />
System banners, which are typically displayed just before a
login prompt, give out information about the service or the host's
operating system. This might include the distribution name and the
system kernel version, and the particular version of a network
service. This information can assist intruders in gaining access to
the system as it can reveal whether the system is running
vulnerable software. Most network services can be configured to
limit what information is displayed.
<html:br /><html:br />
Many organizations implement security policies that require a
system banner provide notice of the system's ownership, provide
warning to unauthorized users, and remind authorized users of their
consent to monitoring.</ns0:description>

This section also discusses firewalls, network access

system-level rules to be written that can limit an attackers' ability
to connect to your system. These rules can specify that network
traffic should be allowed or denied from certain IP addresses,
hosts, and networks. The rules can also specify which of the

(WiFi) and Bluetooth, can present a security risk to sensitive or
classified systems and networks. Wireless networking hardware is
much more likely to be included in laptop or portable systems than
in desktops or servers. 
<html:br /><html:br />
Removal of hardware provides the greatest assurance that the wireless
capability remains disabled. Acquisition policies often include provisions to
prevent the purchase of equipment that will be used in sensitive spaces and
includes wireless capabilities. If it is impractical to remove the wireless
hardware, and policy permits the device to enter sensitive spaces as long
as wireless is disabled, efforts should instead focus on disabling wireless capability
via software.</ns0:description>

The <html:code>router_solicitations</html:code> setting determines how many router
solicitations are sent when bringing up the interface. If addresses are
statically assigned, there is no need to send any solicitations.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>accept_ra_pinfo</html:code> setting controls whether the system will accept
prefix info from the router.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>accept_ra_defrtr</html:code> setting controls whether the system will accept
Hop Limit settings from a router advertisement. Setting it to 0 prevents a
router from changing your default IPv6 Hop Limit for outgoing packets.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>autoconf</html:code> setting controls whether router advertisements can cause
the system to assign a global unicast address to an interface.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>dad_transmits</html:code> setting determines how many neighbor solicitations
to send out per address (global and link-local) when bringing up an interface
to ensure the desired address is unique on the network.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>max_addresses</html:code> setting determines how many global unicast IPv6
addresses can be assigned to each interface.  The default is 16, but it should
be set to exactly the number of statically configured global addresses
required.

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">A host-based firewall called <html:code>netfilter</html:code> is included as
part of the Linux kernel distributed with the system. It is
activated by default. This firewall is controlled by the program
<html:code>iptables</html:code>, and the entire capability is frequently referred to by
this name. An analogous program called <html:code>ip6tables</html:code> handles filtering
for IPv6.
<html:br /><html:br />
Unlike TCP Wrappers, which depends on the network server
program to support and respect the rules written, <html:code>netfilter</html:code>
filtering occurs at the kernel level, before a program can even
process the data from the network packet. As such, any program on
the system is affected by the rules written.

This section provides basic information about strengthening
the <html:code>iptables</html:code> and <html:code>ip6tables</html:code> configurations included with the system.

sophisticated ruleset tailored to your environment, please consult

            <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">In <html:code>/etc/sysconfig/iptables</html:code>, the accepted ICMP messages
types can be restricted. To accept only ICMP echo reply, destination
unreachable, and time exceeded messages, remove the line:<html:br />
<html:pre>-A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type any -j ACCEPT</html:pre>
and insert the lines:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-reply -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type destination-unreachable -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type time-exceeded -j ACCEPT</html:pre>
To allow the system to respond to pings, also insert the following line:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j ACCEPT</html:pre>
Ping responses can also be limited to certain networks or hosts by using the -s
option in the previous rule.  Because IPv6 depends so heavily on ICMPv6, it is
preferable to deny the ICMPv6 packets you know you don't need (e.g. ping
requests) in <html:code>/etc/sysconfig/ip6tables</html:code>, while letting everything else
through:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -p icmpv6 --icmpv6-type echo-request -j DROP</html:pre>
If you are going to statically configure the machine's address, it should
ignore Router Advertisements which could add another IPv6 address to the
interface or alter important network settings:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -p icmpv6 --icmpv6-type router-advertisement -j DROP</html:pre>
Restricting ICMPv6 message types in <html:code>/etc/sysconfig/ip6tables</html:code> is not
recommended because the operation of IPv6 depends heavily on ICMPv6. Thus, great
care must be taken if any other ICMPv6 types are blocked.
</ns0:description>
            <ns0:rationale xml:lang="en-US">Restricting ICMP messages may make a system slightly less

            <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">Packets with non-routable source addresses should be rejected, as they may indicate spoofing. Because the
modified policy will reject non-matching packets, you only need to add these rules if you are interested in also
logging these spoofing or suspicious attempts before they are dropped. If you do choose to log various suspicious
traffic, add identical rules with a target of <html:code>DROP</html:code> after each <html:i>LOG</html:i>.
To log and then drop these IPv4 packets, insert the following rules in <html:code>/etc/sysconfig/iptables</html:code> (excepting
any that are intentionally used):
<html:pre>-A INPUT -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP SPOOF A: "
-A INPUT -s 172.16.0.0/12 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP SPOOF B: "
-A INPUT -s 192.168.0.0/16 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP SPOOF C: "
-A INPUT -s 224.0.0.0/4 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP MULTICAST D: "
-A INPUT -s 240.0.0.0/5 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP SPOOF E: "
-A INPUT -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP LOOPBACK: "</html:pre>
Similarly, you might wish to log packets containing some IPv6 reserved addresses if they are not expected
on your network:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -i eth0 -s ::1 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 DROP LOOPBACK: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:E000::/20 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:7F00::/24 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:0000::/24 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:FF00::/24 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:0A00::/24 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:AC10::/28 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "
-A INPUT -s 2002:C0A8::/32 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 TRAFFIC: "</html:pre>
If you are not expecting to see site-local multicast or auto-tunneled traffic, you can log those:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -s FF05::/16 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 SITE-LOCAL MULTICAST: "
-A INPUT -s ::0.0.0.0/96 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv4 COMPATIBLE IPv6 ADDR: "</html:pre>
If you wish to block multicasts to all link-local nodes (e.g. if you are not using router auto-configuration and
do not plan to have any services that multicast to the entire local network), you can block the link-local
all-nodes multicast address (before accepting incoming ICMPv6):
<html:pre>-A INPUT -d FF02::1 -j LOG --log-prefix "Link-local All-Nodes Multicast: "</html:pre>
However, if you're going to allow IPv4 compatible IPv6 addresses (of the form ::0.0.0.0/96), you should
then consider logging the non-routable IPv4-compatible addresses:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -s ::0.0.0.0/104 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP NON-ROUTABLE ADDR: "
-A INPUT -s ::127.0.0.0/104 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP LOOPBACK: "
-A INPUT -s ::224.0.0.0.0/100 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP DROP MULTICAST D: "
-A INPUT -s ::255.0.0.0/104 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP BROADCAST: "</html:pre>
If you are not expecting to see any IPv4 (or IPv4-compatible) traffic on your network, consider logging it before it gets dropped:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -s ::FFFF:0.0.0.0/96 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv4 MAPPED IPv6 ADDR: "
-A INPUT -s 2002::/16 -j LOG --log-prefix "IPv6 6to4 ADDR: "</html:pre>
The following rule will log all traffic originating from a site-local address, which is deprecated address space:
<html:pre>-A INPUT -s FEC0::/10 -j LOG --log-prefix "SITE-LOCAL ADDRESS TRAFFIC: "</html:pre>

      <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">The syslog service has been the default Unix logging mechanism for
many years. It has a number of downsides, including inconsistent log format,
lack of authentication for received messages, and lack of authentication,
encryption, or reliable transport for messages sent over a network. However,
due to its long history, syslog is a de facto standard which is supported by
almost all Unix applications.
<html:br />
<html:br />
In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, rsyslog has replaced ksyslogd as the
syslog daemon of choice, and it includes some additional security features
such as reliable, connection-oriented (i.e. TCP) transmission of logs, the
option to log to database formats, and the encryption of log data en route to
a central logging server.
This section discusses how to configure rsyslog for
best effect, and how to use tools provided with the system to maintain and
monitor logs.</ns0:description>

If system logs are to be useful in detecting malicious
activities, it is necessary to send logs to a remote server. An
intruder who has compromised the root account on a machine may
delete the log entries which indicate that the system was attacked
before they are seen by an administrator.
<html:br /><html:br />
However, it is recommended that logs be stored on the local
host in addition to being sent to the loghost, especially if
<html:code>rsyslog</html:code> has been configured to use the UDP protocol to send
messages over a network. UDP does not guarantee reliable delivery,
and moderately busy sites will lose log messages occasionally,
especially in periods of high traffic which may be the result of an
attack. In addition, remote <html:code>rsyslog</html:code> messages are not
authenticated in any way by default, so it is easy for an attacker to
introduce spurious messages to the central log server. Also, some
problems cause loss of network connectivity, which will prevent the
sending of messages to the central server. For all of these reasons, it is
better to store log messages both centrally and on each host, so
that they can be correlated if necessary.</ns0:description>

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">
The audit system writes data to <html:code>/var/log/audit/audit.log</html:code>. By default,
<html:code>auditd</html:code> rotates 5 logs by size (6MB), retaining a maximum of 30MB of
data in total, and refuses to write entries when the disk is too
full. This minimizes the risk of audit data filling its partition
and impacting other services. This also minimizes the risk of the audit
daemon temporarily disabling the system if it cannot write audit log (which
it can be configured to do).

For a busy
system or a system which is thoroughly auditing system activity, the default settings
for data retention may be
 insufficient. The log file size needed will depend heavily on what types
of events are being audited. First configure auditing to log all the events of
interest. Then monitor the log size manually for awhile to determine what file
size will allow you to keep the required data for the correct time period.
<html:br /><html:br />
Using a dedicated partition for <html:code>/var/log/audit</html:code> prevents the
<html:code>auditd</html:code> logs from disrupting system functionality if they fill, and,
more importantly, prevents other activity in <html:code>/var</html:code> from filling the
partition and stopping the audit trail. (The audit logs are size-limited and
therefore unlikely to grow without bound unless configured to do so.) Some
machines may have requirements that no actions occur which cannot be audited.
If this is the case, then <html:code>auditd</html:code> can be configured to halt the machine
if it runs out of space. <html:b>Note:</html:b> Since older logs are rotated,
configuring <html:code>auditd</html:code> this way does not prevent older logs from being
rotated away before they can be viewed.

<html:i>If your system is configured to halt when logging cannot be performed, make
sure this can never happen under normal circumstances! Ensure that
<html:code>/var/log/audit</html:code> is on its own partition, and that this partition is
larger than the maximum amount of data <html:code>auditd</html:code> will retain
normally.</html:i>

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">The <html:code>auditd</html:code> program can perform comprehensive
monitoring of system activity. This section describes recommended
configuration settings for comprehensive auditing, but a full
description of the auditing system's capabilities is beyond the
scope of this guide. The mailing list <html:i>linux-audit@redhat.com</html:i> exists
to facilitate community discussion of the auditing system.
<html:br /><html:br />
The audit subsystem supports extensive collection of events, including:
<html:br />
<html:ul><html:li>Tracing of arbitrary system calls (identified by name or number)
on entry or exit.</html:li><html:li>Filtering by PID, UID, call success, system call argument (with
some limitations), etc.</html:li><html:li>Monitoring of specific files for modifications to the file's
contents or metadata.</html:li></html:ul>
<html:br />
Auditing rules at startup are controlled by the file <html:code>/etc/audit/audit.rules</html:code>.
Add rules to it to meet the auditing requirements for your organization.
Each line in <html:code>/etc/audit/audit.rules</html:code> represents a series of arguments
that can be passed to <html:code>auditctl</html:code> and can be individually tested
during runtime. See documentation in <html:code>/usr/share/doc/audit-<html:i>VERSION</html:i></html:code> and
in the related man pages for more details.
<html:br /><html:br />
If copying any example audit rulesets from <html:code>/usr/share/doc/audit-VERSION</html:code>,
be sure to comment out the
lines containing <html:code>arch=</html:code> which are not appropriate for your system's
architecture. Then review and understand the following rules,
ensuring rules are activated as needed for the appropriate
architecture.
<html:br /><html:br />
After reviewing all the rules, reading the following sections, and
editing as needed, the new rules can be activated as follows:
<html:pre>$ sudo service auditd restart</html:pre>

<html:pre># audit_time_rules
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex -k audit_time_rules</html:pre>
The -k option allows for the specification of a key in string form that can 
be used for better reporting capability through ausearch and aureport.
Multiple system calls can be defined on the same line to save space if

changes for all users and root.  Note that the "-F arch=b32" lines should be 
present even on a 64 bit system.  These commands identify system calls for 
auditing.  Even if the system is 64 bit it can still execute 32 bit system 
calls.  Additionally, these rules can be configured in a number of ways while 
still achieving the desired effect.  An example of this is that the "-S" calls 
could be split up and placed on separate lines, however, this is less efficient.
Add the following to <html:code>/etc/audit/audit.rules</html:code>:
<html:pre>-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S chmod -S fchmod -S fchmodat -F auid&gt;=500 -F auid!=4294967295 -k perm_mod

If your system is 64 bit then these lines should be duplicated and the 
arch=b32 replaced with arch=b64 as follows:
<html:pre>-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S chmod -S fchmod -S fchmodat -F auid&gt;=500 -F auid!=4294967295 -k perm_mod

The best protection against vulnerable software is running less software. This section describes how to review
the software which Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 installs on a system and disable software which is not needed. It
then enumerates the software packages installed on a default Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 system and provides guidance about which
ones can be safely disabled.
<html:br /><html:br />
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 provides a convenient minimal install option that essentially installs the bare necessities for a functional
system. When building Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 systems, it is highly recommended to select the minimal packages and then build up
the system from there.

services which have historically caused problems for system
security, and for which disabling or severely limiting the service
has been the best available guidance for some time. As a result of
this, many of these services are not installed as part of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
by default.
<html:br /><html:br />
Organizations which are running these services should
switch to more secure equivalents as soon as possible.
If it remains absolutely necessary to run one of
these services for legacy reasons, care should be taken to restrict
the service as much as possible, for instance by configuring host
firewall software such as <html:code>iptables</html:code> to restrict access to the
vulnerable service to only those remote hosts which have a known
need to use it.</ns0:description>

The System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) is a system daemon that provides access
to different identity and authentication providers such as Red Hat's IdM, Microsoft's AD,

servers permit offline authentication as well as store extended user user data.

      <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">The Network Time Protocol is used to manage the system
clock over a network. Computer clocks are not very accurate, so
time will drift unpredictably on unmanaged systems. Central time
protocols can be used both to ensure that time is consistent among
a network of machines, and that their time is consistent with the
outside world.
<html:br /><html:br />
If every system on a network reliably reports the same time, then it is much
easier to correlate log messages in case of an attack. In addition, a number of
cryptographic protocols (such as Kerberos) use timestamps to prevent certain
types of attacks. If your network does not have synchronized time, these
protocols may be unreliable or even unusable.
<html:br /><html:br />
Depending on the specifics of the network, global time accuracy may be just as
important as local synchronization, or not very important at all. If your
network is connected to the Internet, using a
public timeserver (or one provided by your enterprise) provides globally
accurate timestamps which may be essential in investigating or responding to
an attack which originated outside of your network.
<html:br /><html:br />
A typical network setup involves a small number of internal systems operating as NTP
servers, and the remainder obtaining time information from those
internal servers.
<html:br /><html:br />
More information on how to configure the NTP server software,
including configuration of cryptographic authentication for
time data, is available at <html:a href="http://www.ntp.org">http://www.ntp.org</html:a>.

      <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">
Mail servers are used to send and receive email over the network.
Mail is a very common service, and Mail Transfer Agents (MTAs) are obvious
targets of network attack.
Ensure that machines are not running MTAs unnecessarily,
and configure needed MTAs as defensively as possible.
<html:br /><html:br />
Very few systems at any site should be configured to directly receive email over the
network. Users should instead use mail client programs to retrieve email
from a central server that supports protocols such as IMAP or POP3.
However, it is normal for most systems to be independently capable of sending email,
for instance so that cron jobs can report output to an administrator.
Most MTAs, including Postfix, support a submission-only mode in which mail can be sent from
the local system to a central site MTA (or directly delivered to a local account),
but the system still cannot receive mail directly over a network.
<html:br /><html:br />
The <html:code>alternatives</html:code> program in Red Hat Enterprise Linux permits selection of other mail server software
(such as Sendmail), but Postfix is the default and is preferred.
Postfix was coded with security in mind and can also be more effectively contained by
SELinux as its modular design has resulted in separate processes performing specific actions.
More information is available on its website, <html:a href="http://www.postfix.org">http://www.postfix.org</html:a>.

effectively become an open relay. It is recommended that only machines which
are managed by you or by another trusted organization be placed in mynetworks,

important to configure in OpenLDAP clients by manually editing the appropriate

<html:pre>$ sudo mkdir /etc/pki/tls/ldap

Using removable media or some other secure transmission format, install the certificate files

<html:pre>$ sudo chown root:ldap /etc/pki/tls/ldap/serverkey.pem
$ sudo chown root:ldap /etc/pki/tls/ldap/servercert.pem
$ sudo chmod 640 /etc/pki/tls/ldap/serverkey.pem

Verify that the CA's public certificate file has been installed as
<html:code>/etc/pki/tls/CA/cacert.pem</html:code>, and has the correct permissions:

$ sudo chown root:root /etc/pki/tls/CA/cacert.pem
$ sudo chmod 644 /etc/pki/tls/CA/cacert.pem</html:pre>

As a result of these steps, the LDAP server will have access to its own private
certificate and the key with which that certificate is encrypted, and to the
public certificate file belonging to the CA. Note that it would be possible for
the key to be protected further, so that processes running as ldap could not
read it. If this were done, the LDAP server process would need to be restarted
manually whenever the server rebooted.

configuration possible to avoid maintainability problems which may lead to
unnecessary security exposure. Due to the reliability and security problems
caused by NFS (specially NFSv3 and NFSv2), it is not a good idea for machines
which act as NFS servers to also mount filesystems via NFS. At the least,
crossed mounts (the situation in which each of two servers mounts a filesystem
from the other) should never be used.

          <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">Firewalling should be done at each host and at the border
firewalls to protect the NFS daemons from remote access, since NFS servers
should never be accessible from outside the organization. However, by default
for NFSv3 and NFSv2, the RPC Bind service assigns each NFS service to a port
dynamically at service startup time. Dynamic ports cannot be protected by port
filtering firewalls such as iptables.
<html:br /><html:br />
Therefore, restrict each service to always use a given port, so that
firewalling can be done effectively. Note that, because of the way RPC is
implemented, it is not possible to disable the RPC Bind service even if ports
are assigned statically to all RPC services.
<html:br /><html:br />
In NFSv4, the mounting and locking protocols have been incorporated into the
protocol, and the server listens on the the well-known TCP port 2049. As such,
NFSv4 does not need to interact with the <html:code>rpcbind, lockd, and rpc.statd</html:code>
daemons, which can and should be disabled in a pure NFSv4 environment. The
<html:code>rpc.mountd</html:code> daemon is still required on the NFS server to setup
exports, but is not involved in any over-the-wire operations.

In order to provide the public nameservice function, it is necessary to share

cannot be conveniently contacted by outside users. However, internal data
should be protected from disclosure, and serving irrelevant public name queries
for outside domains leaves the DNS server open to cache poisoning and other
attacks. Therefore, local network nameservice functions should not be provided
to untrusted machines.

modules can be used to address the problem. Well-known DoS protection modules include:
<html:pre>mod_cband mod_bwshare mod_limitipconn mod_evasive</html:pre>
Denial-of-service prevention should be implemented for a web server if such a threat exists.
However, specific configuration details are very dependent on the environment and often best left
at the discretion of the administrator.

        <ns0:description xml:lang="en-US">If it is necessary to run the snmpd agent on the system, some best
practices should be followed to minimize the security risk from the
installation. The multiple security models implemented by SNMP cannot be fully
covered here so only the following general configuration advice can be offered:
<html:ul><html:li>use only SNMP version 3 security models and enable the use of authentication and encryption</html:li><html:li>write access to the MIB (Management Information Base) should be allowed only if necessary</html:li><html:li>all access to the MIB should be restricted following a principle of least privilege</html:li><html:li>network access should be limited to the maximum extent possible including restricting to expected network
addresses both in the configuration files and in the system firewall rules</html:li><html:li>ensure SNMP agents send traps only to, and accept SNMP queries only from, authorized management
stations</html:li><html:li>ensure that permissions on the <html:code>snmpd.conf</html:code> configuration file (by default, in <html:code>/etc/snmp</html:code>) are 640 or more restrictive</html:li><html:li>ensure that any MIB files' permissions are also 640 or more restrictive</html:li></html:ul>
