1.8 RHEL-10-000570

Information

RHEL 10 must use a separate file system for "/var/tmp".

GROUP ID: V-280941RULE ID: SV-280941r1184731

The "/var/tmp" partition is used as temporary storage by many programs. Placing "/var/tmp" in its own partition enables the setting of more restrictive mount options, which can help protect programs that use it.

Solution

Configure RHEL 10 to use a separate file system for the "/var/tmp" path by migrating "/var/tmp" onto a separate file system.
