Fix Recommendation

The Software Installation Profile is required.

Configure the package system to ensure that digital signatures are verified.

# pfexec pkg set-property signature-policy verify

Check that package permissions are configured per vendor requirements.

# pfexec pkg verify

If any errors are reported unrelated to STIG changes, use:

# pfexec pkg fix

to bring configuration settings and permissions into factory compliance.

Check Contents

The Software Installation Profile is required.

Determine what the signature policy is for pkg publishers:

# pkg property | grep signature-policy

Check that output produces:

signature-policy verify

If the output does not confirm that signature-policy verify is active, this is a finding.

Check that package permissions are configured and signed per vendor requirements.

# pkg verify

If the command produces any output unrelated to STIG changes, this is a finding.

There is currently a Solaris 11 bug 16267888 which reports pkg verify errors for a variety of python packages. These can be ignored.
