Disable Automatic Actions for Blank DVDs
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 blank DVDs mitigates this risk.
Parameter:
[yes/no]
Technical Mechanism:
To check if the system has the correct setting for blank DVDs in the configuration profile, run the following command:
system_profiler SPConfigurationProfileDataType | grep 'com.apple.digihub.blank.dvd.appeared' | grep 'action' | awk '{ print $3 }' | sed 's/;//'
The check should return a value of '1'. If this is not defined or not set to '1', this is a finding.
