The STIG requires that all ``chmod`` syscalls are audited, but this
|
|
change creates a significant increase in logging on most systems. This increase
|
|
can cause some systems to run out of disk space for logs.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
This rule is disabled by default to avoid high CPU usage and disk space
|
|
exhaustion. Deployers should only enable this rule if they have tested it
|
|
thoroughly in a non-production environment with system health monitoring
|
|
enabled.
|
|
|
|
Deployers can opt in for this change by setting the following Ansible variable:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
security_rhel7_audit_chmod: yes
|
|
|
|
This rule is compatible with x86, x86_64, and ppc64 architectures.
