Description

The avahi-daemon service can be disabled with the following command:

$ sudo systemctl mask --now avahi-daemon.service

Rationale

Because the Avahi daemon service keeps an open network port, it is subject to network attacks. Its functionality is convenient but is only appropriate if the local network can be trusted.

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='${db:Status-Status}\n' 'avahi-daemon' 2>/dev/null | grep -q installed && dpkg-query --show --showformat='${db:Status-Status}
' 'kernel' 2>/dev/null | grep -q installed ); then

SYSTEMCTL_EXEC='/usr/bin/systemctl'
"$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" stop 'avahi-daemon.service'
"$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" disable 'avahi-daemon.service'
"$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" mask 'avahi-daemon.service'
# Disable socket activation if we have a unit file for it
if "$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" -q list-unit-files avahi-daemon.socket; then
    "$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" stop 'avahi-daemon.socket'
    "$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" mask 'avahi-daemon.socket'
fi
# The service may not be running because it has been started and failed,
# so let's reset the state so OVAL checks pass.
# Service should be 'inactive', not 'failed' after reboot though.
"$SYSTEMCTL_EXEC" reset-failed 'avahi-daemon.service' || true

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

Ansible playbook

The following playbook can be run with Ansible to remediate the issue.
