Information

Shares on a system can provide network access, exposing sensitive information. If a share is necessary, permissions must be reconfigured to give the minimum access to those accounts that require it.

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

Solution

Remove permissions from the 'Everyone' group from locally-created file shares and assign them to authorized groups.
