Control: 3.6 Ensure that /etc/docker directory permissions are set to 755 or more restrictively
Description
You should verify that the /etc/docker
directory permissions are correctly set to 755
or more
restrictively
The /etc/docker
directory contains certificates and keys in addition to various sensitive
files. It should therefore only be writeable by root
to ensure that it can not be modified
by a less privileged user.
Remediation
You should run the following command:
chmod 755 /etc/docker
This sets the permissions for the directory to 755
.
Default Value
By default, the permissions for this directory are set to 755
.
Usage

powerpipe control run docker_compliance.control.cis_v160_3_6
Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:
