1.214 SOL-11.1-100030

Information

The systems physical devices must not be assigned to non-global zones.

GROUP ID: V-216476
RULE ID: SV-216476r959010

Solaris non-global zones can be assigned physical hardware devices. This increases the risk of such a non-global zone having the capability to compromise the global zone.

Solution

This check applies to the global zone only. Determine the zone that you are currently securing.

# zonename

If the command output is "global", this check applies.

The Zone Security profile is required:

Remove all device assignments from the non-global zone.

# pfexec zonecfg -z [zone] delete device [device]
