Set Existing Passwords Warning Age

Description

To configure how many days prior to password expiration that a warning will be issued to users, run the command:

$ sudo chage --warndays 7
          USER
         

The DoD requirement is 7, and CIS recommendation is no less than 7 days. This profile requirement is 7.

Rationale

Providing an advance warning that a password will be expiring gives users time to think of a secure password. Users caught unaware may choose a simple password or write it down where it may be discovered.

Remediation

Shell script

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

#!/bin/bash

var_accounts_password_warn_age_login_defs='7'


while IFS= read -r i; do
    chage --warndays $var_accounts_password_warn_age_login_defs $i
done <   <(awk -v var="$var_accounts_password_warn_age_login_defs" -F: '(($6 < var || $6 == "") && $2 ~ /^\$/) {print $1}' /etc/shadow)

Ansible playbook

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

    var_accounts_password_warn_age_login_defs: !!str 7
