Description
FTP is a legacy protocol. It is a clear-text protocol, like Telnet, and allows an
attacker to eavesdrop on sessions and steal passwords. This also allows an
attacker to take over an FTP session, using a clear-text-takeover tool like Hunt
or Ettercap. It can make effective firewalling difficult because of the way FTP
requires many ports to stay open. Every major FTP daemon has had a long
history of security vulnerability. They represent one of the major successful
attack vectors for remote root attacks.
Actions
In the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, comment out the entry for
ftp
.
SecureInetd.deactivate_ident
Headline
Ensure that the
inetd ident
service does not run on this system.
Default
N
Description
The
ident
service implements the TCP/IP proposed standard IDENT user
identification protocol as specified in the RFC 1413 document. The
identd
service operates by looking up specific TCP/IP connections and returning the
user name of the process owning the connection. This service can be used to
determine user information on a given machine in preparation for a brute-force
password attack like a dictionary attack. HP recommends disabling this service
unless compelled by application specific needs.
Actions
In the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, comment out the entry for
auth
or
ident
.
SecureInetd.deactivate_ktools
Headline
Ensure that the
inetd klogin
and
kshell
services do not run on this
system.
Default
N
Description
The
kshell
and
klogin
services use Kerberos authentication protocols. If
this machine is not using the Kerberos scheme, HP recommends disabling
these services. Any service or daemon running on the system that is not needed
or used should be disabled.
Actions
In the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, comment out the entry for
kshell
and
klogin
.
SecureInetd.deactivate_ntalk
Headline
Ensure that the
inetd ntalk
service does not run on this system.
Default
N
Description
The
ntalk
service is a visual communication program that predates instant
messaging applications and copies lines from your terminal to another user's
terminal. The
ntalk
service is considered a light security hazard, but should
be disabled if not used on this machine.
Actions
In the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, comment out the entry for
ntalk
.
SecureInetd.deactivate_printer
Headline
Ensure the
inetd printer
service does not run on this system.
Default
N
Description
The
printer
service is a line printer daemon that accepts remote spool
requests. It uses the
rlp
daemon to process remote print requests and displays
the queue and removes jobs from the queue upon request. If this machine is
not used as a remote print spooler, this service should be disabled.
Actions
In the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, comment out the entry for
printer
.
