An example would be the following:

> Policy Category: Access Control
> Check Name: Access server unrestricted
> Risk Level: Low
> CVE Reference: CVE-NO-MATCH
> Description: Verify that the "Access server" field has been restricted to specific groups and users that should have access to the server.
> Summary: The Access server field specifies which names have specifically been given access to communicate to the server. When the list of names in the Access server field is empty, the server assumes any user not in the deny list is granted access.
> Overview: The "Access server" list specifies which names have specifically been given access to communicate to the server. When the server access list is empty, the server assumes any user not in the deny list is granted access. The server access list works hand in hand with the "Not access server" list and the "Only Allow Access to Users in Directory" (OAAUD) option.

The "Not access server" list will override the "Access server" list. Any user or group listed will be denied access regardless of whether it is also in the "Access server" list.

The "Access server" list will override the OAAUD option. Thus , if the OAAUD option is set, even if a remote server is not listed in the server's directory, if that server is in the "Access server" list it will still be granted access.

Although it is not always necessary, it is recommended that the "Access server" list not be left to allow all user to access the server, but rather be filled out to specify all groups and servers that should have access to the server. This will prevent certain user administration errors from causing an unauthorized user to gain access to the server.
> Recommendation/Fix: To restrict the names allowed access to the server, perform the following steps:

1) Open the Domino Administrator client.
2) Select the menu item "File->Open Server" to access the server to edit.
3) Within the "Configuration" tab click on the "Server" option on the left side of the screen.
4) Under "Server" click on "Current Server Document".
5) Click on the "Security" tab within the server document.
6) Find the "Access Server" list under the "Server Access" section.
7) Enter the groups and servers allowed to access the server.
8) Save the document changes.

As part of a complete database security and compliance program, industry best practices recommend monitoring for known vulnerabilities. Commonly referred to as a compensating control, real-time activity monitoring ensures that databases are protected during the gap in time between discovery of a vulnerability and mitigation of that vulnerability. It is recommended that organizations deploy DbProtect's activity monitoring functionality to ensure the highest level of database security.
> Reference: IBM Search results - United States
> Version Affected: All versions of Domino Server

The output should be the following:

Policy Cat Risk Level Description Summary Recommendation
======== ======= ======== ======= ============


I plan to import the results in an excel spreadsheet.

Thanks!

xhost

XHOST(1)                                                      General Commands Manual                                                     XHOST(1)

NAME

       xhost - server access control program for X

SYNOPSIS

       xhost [[+-]name ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  xhost program is used to add and delete host names or user names to the list allowed to make connections to the X server.  In the case
       of hosts, this provides a rudimentary form of privacy control and security.  It is only sufficient for a workstation (single user) environ-
       ment,  although  it  does  limit  the worst abuses.  Environments which require more sophisticated measures should implement the user-based
       mechanism or use the hooks in the protocol for passing other authentication data to the server.

OPTIONS

       Xhost accepts the following command line options described below.  For security, the options that affect access control  may  only  be  run
       from the "controlling host".  For workstations, this is the same machine as the server.  For X terminals, it is the login host.

       -help   Prints a usage message.

       [+]name The given name (the plus sign is optional) is added to the list allowed to connect to the X server.  The name can be a host name or
               a complete name (See NAMES for more details).

       -name   The given name is removed from the list of allowed to connect to the server.  The name can be a host name or a complete  name  (See
               NAMES  for  more details).  Existing connections are not broken, but new connection attempts will be denied.  Note that the current
               machine is allowed to be removed; however, further connections (including attempts to add it back) will not be  permitted.   Reset-
               ting the server (thereby breaking all connections) is the only way to allow local connections again.

       +       Access is granted to everyone, even if they aren't on the list (i.e., access control is turned off).

       -       Access is restricted to only those on the list (i.e., access control is turned on).

       nothing If  no  command  line arguments are given, a message indicating whether or not access control is currently enabled is printed, fol-
               lowed by the list of those allowed to connect.  This is the only option that may be used from machines other than  the  controlling
               host.

NAMES

       A complete name has the syntax ``family:name'' where the families are as follows:

       inet      Internet host (IPv4)
       inet6     Internet host (IPv6)
       dnet      DECnet host
       nis       Secure RPC network name
       krb       Kerberos V5 principal
       local     contains only one name, the empty string
       si        Server Interpreted

       The family is case insensitive.  The format of the name varies with the family.

       When  Secure  RPC is being used, the network independent netname (e.g., "nis:unix.uid@domainname") can be specified, or a local user can be
       specified with just the username and a trailing at-sign (e.g., "nis:pat@").

       For backward compatibility with pre-R6 xhost, names that contain an at-sign (@) are assumed to be in the nis family.   Otherwise  they  are
       assumed to be Internet addresses. If compiled to support IPv6, then all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses returned by getaddrinfo(3) are added to the
       access list in the appropriate inet or inet6 family.

       The local family specifies all the local connections at once. However, the server interpreted address "si:localuser:username" can  be  used
       to specify a single local user. (See the Xsecurity(7) manual page for more details.)

       Server interpreted addresses consist of a case-sensitive type tag and a string representing a given value, separated by a colon.  For exam-
       ple, "si:hostname:almas" is a server interpreted address of type hostname, with a value of almas.   For more information on  the  available
       forms of server interpreted addresses, see the Xsecurity(7) manual page.

       The  initial  access  control  list for display number n may be set by the file /etc/Xn.hosts, where n is the display number of the server.
       See Xserver(1) for details.

DIAGNOSTICS

       For each name added to the access control list, a line of the form "name being added to access control list" is  printed.   For  each  name
       removed from the access control list, a line of the form "name being removed from access control list" is printed.

SEE ALSO

       X(7), Xsecurity(7), Xserver(1), xdm(1), xauth(1), getaddrinfo(3)

ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY to get the default host and display to use.

BUGS

       You  can't  specify a display on the command line because -display is a valid command line argument (indicating that you want to remove the
       machine named ``display'' from the access list).

       The X server stores network addresses, not host names, unless you use the server-interpreted hostname type address.  If somehow you  change
       a host's network address while the server is still running, and you are using a network-address based form of authentication, xhost must be
       used to add the new address and/or remove the old address.
