Fix Recommendation

To configure the system to prevent the "sctp" kernel module from being loaded, add the following line to the file /etc/modprobe.d/sctp.conf (or create sctp.conf if it does not exist):

install sctp /bin/false
blacklist sctp

Check Contents

Verify TOSS 5 disables the ability to load the "sctp" kernel module using the following command:

$ sudo grep -r sctp /etc/modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.d/*

blacklist sctp

If the command does not return any output, or the line is commented out, and use of sctp is not documented with the information system security officer (ISSO) as an operational requirement, this is a finding.
