| # 1.1.1.5 Ensure mounting of hfsplus filesystems is disabled |
| # |
| # Description |
| # =========== |
| # The hfsplus filesystem type is a hierarchical filesystem designed to |
| # replace hfs that allows you to mount Mac OS filesystems. |
| # |
| # Rationale |
| # ========= |
| # Removing support for unneeded filesystem types reduces the local attack |
| # surface of the system. If this filesystem type is not needed, disable it. |
| # |
| # Audit |
| # ===== |
| # Run the following commands and verify the output is as indicated: |
| # |
| # # modprobe -n -v hfsplus |
| # install /bin/true |
| # # lsmod | grep hfsplus |
| # <No output> |
| # |
| # Remediation |
| # =========== |
| # Edit or create the file /etc/modprobe.d/CIS.conf and add the following line: |
| # |
| # install hfsplus /bin/true |
| # |
