SLEM-05-653020 - The audit-audispd-plugins package must be installed on SLEM 5.

Information

Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration.

Offloading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity.

The auditd service does not include the ability to send audit records to a centralized server for management directly. However, it can use a plug-in for audit event multiplexor to pass audit records to a remote server.

Solution

Install the "audit-audispd-plugins" package on SLEM 5 by running the following command:

 > sudo transactional-update pkg install audit-audispd-plugins

Add or modify the following line in the "/etc/audisp/plugins.d/au-remote.conf" file:

active = yes

Reboot the system:

 > sudo reboot
