1.13 RHEL-10-001050

Information

RHEL 10 must have GNU Privacy Guard (GPG) signature verification enabled for all software repositories.

GROUP ID: V-280934RULE ID: SV-280934r1165157

Changes to any software components can have significant effects on the overall security of the operating system. This requirement ensures the software has not been tampered with and has been provided by a trusted vendor.

All software packages must be signed with a cryptographic key recognized and approved by the organization.

Verifying the authenticity of software prior to installation validates the integrity of the software package received from a vendor.

Solution

Configure RHEL 10 software repositories defined in "/etc/yum.repos.d/" to have "gpgcheck" enabled with the following command:

$ sudo sed -i 's/gpgcheck\s*=.*/gpgcheck=1/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/*
