1.5 RHEL-10-000540

Information

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

GROUP ID: V-280938RULE ID: SV-280938r1184728

The "/tmp" partition is used as temporary storage by many programs. Placing "/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 temporary storage directories by migrating the "/tmp" path onto a separate file system.
