Discussion

Improperly defined security controls for Quest NC-Pass 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 Quest NC-Pass Facility Matrix table is defined as stated below, this is not a finding.

FACILITY DISPLAY FOR NCPASS INITPGM=NCS ID=14 TYPE=099 ATTRIBUTES=IN-USE,ACTIVE,SHRPRF,NOASUBM,NOABEND,MULTIUSER,NOXDEF ATTRIBUTES=LUMSG,STMSG,SIGN(M),INSTDATA,NORNDPW,AUTHINIT ATTRIBUTES=NOPROMPT,NOAUDIT,RES,WARNPW,NOTSOC,LCFTRANS ATTRIBUTES=MSGLC,NOTRACE,NOEODINIT,IJU,NODORMPW,NONPWR ATTRIBUTES=LUUPD MODE=FAIL DOWN=GLOBAL LOGGING=INIT,SMF,MSG,SEC9 UIDACID=8 LOCKTIME=000 DEFACID=*NONE* KEY=8 MAXUSER=03000 PRFT=003

Fix

The ISSO working with the systems programmer will ensure the Facility Matrix Table for Quest NC-Pass is proper defined using the following example:

*****NCPASS FAC(USERxx=NAME=NCPASS,PGM=NCS,ID=nn,ACTIVE,NOASUBM) FAC(NCPASS=LUMSG,STMSG,NORNDPW,WARNPW,MODE=FAIL) FAC(NCPASS=LOG(SMF,INIT,MSG,SEC9),UIDACID=8,LOCKTIME=000)
