Rule version O19C-00-011600 · STIG v1 · 2026-08-25

Discussion

Remote administration provides a potential opportunity for malicious users to make unauthorized changes to the Connection Manager configuration or interrupt its service.

Check

View the cman.ora file in the ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory.

If the file does not exist, the database is not accessed via Oracle Connection Manager and this check is not a finding.

If the entry and value for REMOTE_ADMIN is not listed or is not set to a value of NO (REMOTE_ADMIN = NO), this is a finding.

Fix

View the cman.ora file in the ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory of the Connection Manager.

Include the following line in the file:

REMOTE_ADMIN = NO
