    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When the following zSecure Audit compliance rules are evaluated,
    the "Actual value of test field" and "Compliance comparison
    value" fields for audit settings do not contain any values:
    
     - IFTP0070: the permission bits and user audit audit bits for
                 UNIX objects that are part of the FTP Server
                 component must be properly configured.
     - ISLG0030: The permission bits and user audit bits for FS
                 objects that are part of the syslog daemon
                 component must be properly configured.
     - ITCP0040: The permission bits and user audit bits for FS
                 objects that are part of the base TCP/IP component
                 must be properly configured.
     - IUTN0040: The permission bits and the user audit bits or the
                 FS objects that are part of the z/OS UNIX Telnet
                 server must be properly configured.
     - ZUSS0034: z/OS UNIX FS permission bits and audit bits for
                 each directory must be properly specified.
     - ZUSS0035: z/OS UNIX FS permission bits and audit bits for
                 each file must be properly specified.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Audit has been modified so that STIG compliance rules
    ISLG0030, ITCP0040, IUTN0040, ZUSS0034, and ZUSS0035 display
    values for "Actual value of test field" and "Compliance
    comparison value" fields for audit settings properly.
