Description

SSH server private keys, files that match the /etc/ssh/*_key glob, must be group-owned by ssh_keys group.

Rationale

If an unauthorized user obtains the private SSH host key file, the host could be impersonated.

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 [ ! -f /.dockerenv ] && [ ! -f /run/.containerenv ]; then

find /etc/ssh/ -maxdepth 1 -type f ! -group ssh_keys -regex '^.*_key$' -exec chgrp ssh_keys {} \;

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.

- name: Find /etc/ssh/ file(s) matching ^.*_key$
  command: find -H /etc/ssh/ -maxdepth 1 -type f ! -group ssh_keys -regex "^.*_key$"
  register: files_found
