From a desktop browser window, connect to the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise for Linux (VSEL) Monitor (WEB interface) of the Linux system being reviewed and logon with the nails user account.
In the VSEL WEB Monitor, under "Configure", select "On-Access Settings".
Click "Edit".
Under "Paths Excluded From Scanning", remove all entries other than the default "/var/log".
Click "Apply".
From a desktop browser window, connect to the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise for Linux (VSEL) Monitor (WEB interface) of the Linux system being reviewed and logon with the nails user account.
In the VSEL WEB Monitor, under "Configure", select "On-Access Settings".
Under "Paths Excluded From Scanning", verify no entries exist other than the following:
/var/log
/_admin/Manage_NSS
/mnt/system/log
/media/nss/.*/(\._NETWARE|\._ADMIN)
/.*\.(vmdk|VMDK|dbl|DBL|ctl|CTL|log|LOG|jar|JAR|war|WAR|dtx|DTX|dbf|DBF|frm|FRM|myd|MYD|myi|MYI|rdo|RDO|arc|ARC)
/cgroup
/dev
/proc
/selinux
/sys
If any entries other than the above referenced paths are present in the "Paths Excluded From Scanning" field, verify the exclusion of those files and paths have been formally documented by the System Administrator and has been approved by the ISSO/ISSM.
If they have not been formally documented by the System Administrator and approved by the ISSO/ISSM, this is a finding.
If they have not been formally documented by the System Administrator and approved by the ISSO/ISSM but are validated as being scanned within the regularly scheduled scan, this is a finding but can be dropped to a CAT 3.
To validate without the Web interface, access the Linux system being reviewed, either at the console or by a SSH connection.
At the command line, navigate to /var/opt/NAI/LinuxShield/etc.
Enter the command "grep "exclude-path" nailsd.cfg -A 5"
If the response given is: "nailsd.profile.OAS.filter.varlog.type: exclude-path" and "nailsd.profile.OAS.filter.varlog.path:" includes anything other than the above paths", this is a finding.
