RHEL 10 must generate audit records for successful and unsuccessful uses of the "reboot" command.

Misuse of the "reboot" command may cause system availability issues.

Verify RHEL 10 is configured to audit the execution of the "reboot" command with the following command:

$ sudo auditctl -l | grep reboot -a always,exit -S all -F path=/usr/sbin/reboot -F perm=x -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=-1 -F key=privileged-reboot

If the command does not return a line, or the line is commented out, this is a finding.

Configure RHEL 10 to generate audit records upon successful and unsuccessful uses of the "reboot" command by adding or updating the following rule in the "/etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules" file:

-a always,exit -F path=/usr/sbin/reboot -F perm=x -F auid>=1000 -F auid!=unset -k privileged-reboot

Restart the audit daemon with the following command for the changes to take effect:

$ sudo service auditd restart
