Techniques used to address this include protocols using nonces (e.g., numbers generated for a specific one-time use) or challenges (e.g., Transport Layer Security [TLS], WS_Security). Additional techniques include time-synchronous or challenge-response one-time authenticators.
Note: This requirement assumes the use of the RHEL 10 default graphical user interface, the GNOME desktop environment. If the system does not have any graphical user interface installed, this requirement is not applicable.
Verify RHEL 10 disables ability of the user to override the graphical user interface autorun setting.
Check that the autorun setting is set to prevent user modification with the following command:
If "autorun-never" is writable, the result is "true".
If this is not documented with the information system security officer as an operational requirement, this is a finding.
Fix
Configure RHEL 10 so that the GNOME desktop does not allow a user to change the setting that disables autorun on removable media.
Note: The example below is using the database "local" for the system. If the system is using another database in "/etc/dconf/profile/user", the file should be created under the appropriate subdirectory.
Update the "/etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks/00-security-settings-lock" file to prevent user modification:
$ sudo vi /etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks/00-security-settings-lock
