Disable Automatic Actions for Music CDs
Applications should not be configured to launch automatically when a disk is inserted. This potentially circumvents anti virus software and allows malicious users to craft disks that can exploit user applications. Disabling Automatic Actions for music CDs mitigates this risk.
Parameter:
[enable/disable]
Technical Mechanism:
To check if the system has the correct setting for music CDs open up System Preferences, CDs & DVDs. The setting for 'When you insert a music CD' should be set to 'Ignore', if it is not, this is a finding.
