Description

The file /etc/at.deny should not exist. Use /etc/at.allow instead.

Rationale

Access to at should be restricted. It is easier to manage an allow list than a deny list.

Remediation

Shell script

The following script can be run on the host to remediate the issue.

#!/bin/bash

# Remediation is applicable only in certain platforms
if dpkg-query --show --showformat='${db:Status-Status}
' 'kernel' 2>/dev/null | grep -q installed; then

if [[ -f  /etc/at.deny ]]; then
        rm /etc/at.deny
    fi

else
    >&2 echo 'Remediation is not applicable, nothing was done'
fi
