Linux RHEL-10-000500

DISA STIG RHEL-10-000500 (CAT I): RHEL 10 must enable FIPS mode.

DISA STIG recommends

RHEL-10-000500 CAT I

RHEL 10 must enable FIPS mode.

NIST SP 800-53: AC-17(2), MA-4, MA-4(6), SC-8, SC-13

Check

Verify RHEL 10 is in FIPS mode with the following command: $ cat /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled 1 If the command does not return "1", this is a finding.

Fix

Configure RHEL 10 to implement FIPS mode. If this check fails on an installed system, it is a permanent finding until the system is reinstalled with "fips=1" during installation. Red Hat 10 does not support switching to strict FIPS mode after installation.
