1.2.1.4 Ensure package manager repositories are configured

Information

Systems need to have the respective package manager repositories configured to ensure that the system is able to receive the latest patches and updates.

If a system's package repositories are misconfigured, important patches may not be identified or a rogue repository could introduce compromised software.

NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Configure your package manager repositories according to site policy.
