Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one. Audit records can be generated from various components within the information system (e.g., module or policy filter). The passwd command is used to change passwords for user accounts.When a user logs on, the AUID is set to the UID of the account that is being authenticated. Daemons are not user sessions and have the loginuid set to -1. The AUID representation is an unsigned 32-bit integer, which equals 4294967295. The audit system interprets -1, 4294967295, and unset in the same way. Fixtext: Add or update the following rules in the "/etc/audit/audit.rules" file: -a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/passwd -F perm=x -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=4294967295 -k privileged-passwd


Parameter:

[Yes/No]


Technical Mechanism:

Add or update the following rules in the "/etc/audit/audit.rules" file: -a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/passwd -F perm=x -F auid =1000 -F auid!=4294967295 -k privileged-passwd
