Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Audit exploiting the        *
    *                 STIG compliance controls RACF-ES-000240 and  *
    *                 RACF-ES-000650.                              *

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Audit RACF STIG compliance      *
    *                      controls RACF-ES-000240 and             *
    *                      RACF-ES-000650 might report incorrect   *
    *                      (non-)compliant results.                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    The RACF STIG compliance controls RACF-ES-000240 (IBM RACF batch
    jobs must be properly secured) and RACF-ES-000650 (IBM z/OS
    Batch job user IDs must be properly defined ) used a general
    customization member PRODAUDT that can include IDs that are not
    relevant for these controls. That implementation caused the
    controls to potentially report incorrect (non-)compliant
    results.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zSecure Audit has been modified, so that the RACF STIG
    compliance controls RACF-ES-000240 and RACF-ES-000650 use
    respectively configuration customization members BBJSCHED
    and BATCHIDS to produce proper compliance results.
