BMC CONTROL-O is not properly defined to the Facility Matrix Table for Top Secret.

Rule version ZCTOT036 · STIG v7 · 2025-09-28

Discussion

Improperly defined security controls for the BMC CONTROL-O could result in the compromise of the network, operating system, and customer data.

Check

Refer to the following reports produced by the TSS Data Collection:

- TSSCMDS.RPT(FACLIST) - Preferred report containing all control option values in effect including default values. - TSSCMDS.RPT(TSSPRMFL) - Alternate report containing only control option values explicitly coded at TSS startup.

If the BMC CONTROL-O Facility Matrix table is defined as follows, this is a finding.

FAC(USERxx=NAME=CONTROLO,PGM=CTO,ID=nn,ACTIVE,SHRPRF) FAC(CONTROLO=ASUBM,NOABEND,MULTIUSER,NOXDEF,SIGN(S)) FAC(CONTROLO=RES,LUMSG,STMSG,WARNPW,NORNDPW) FAC(CONTROLO=NOAUDIT,NOTSOC,MODE=FAIL) FAC(CONTROLO=LOG(SMF,INIT,MSG,SEC9),UIDACID=8,LOCKTIME=000)

Fix

The BMC CONTROL-O systems programmer and the ISSO will ensure that the TOP SECRET Facility Matrix Table is proper defined using the following example:

CONTROLO: FAC(USERxx=NAME=CONTROLO,PGM=CTO,ID=nn,ACTIVE,SHRPRF) FAC(CONTROLO=ASUBM,NOABEND,MULTIUSER,NOXDEF) FAC(CONTROLO=LUMSG,STMSG,SIGN(S),WARNPW,NORNDPW) FAC(CONTROLO=NOAUDIT,RES,NOTSOC,MODE=FAIL) FAC(CONTROLO=LOG(SMF,INIT,MSG,SEC9),UIDACID=8,LOCKTIME=000)
