Title

Windows Server 2022 profile single process user right must only be assigned to the Administrators group.

Control

Verify the effective setting in Local Group Policy Editor. Run "gpedit.msc". Navigate to Local Computer Policy >> Computer Configuration >> Windows Settings >> Security Settings >> Local Policies >> User Rights Assignment. If any accounts or groups other than the following are granted the "Profile single process" user right, this is a finding: - Administrators For server core installations, run the following command: Secedit /Export /Areas User_Rights /cfg c:\path\filename.txt Review the text file. If any SIDs other than the following are granted the "SeProfileSingleProcessPrivilege" user right, this is a finding: S-1-5-32-544 (Administrators)

Discussion

Inappropriate granting of user rights can provide system, administrative, and other high-level capabilities. Accounts with the "Profile single process" user right can monitor nonsystem processes performance. An attacker could use this to identify processes to attack.
