Discussion

Providing users with feedback on when account accesses last occurred facilitates user recognition and reporting of unauthorized account use.

Check Content

Check that pam_lastlog is used and not silent, or that the SSH daemon is configured to display last login information.

# grep pam_lastlog /etc/pam.d/sshd
If pam_lastlog is present, and does not have the "silent" option, this is not a finding.

# grep -i PrintLastLog /etc/ssh/sshd_config


If PrintLastLog is not enabled in the configuration either explicitly or by default, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Implement pam_lastlog, or enable PrintLastLog in the SSH daemon.

To enable pam_lastlog, add a line such as "session required pam_lastlog.so" to /etc/pam.d/sshd.

To enable PrintLastLog in the SSH daemon, remove any lines disabling this option from /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
