Titan-Config This script  figures out which OS you are using and makes the appropriate links to the shell scripts accordingly. Titan-Config also asks if you want to  make a backup directory of all files modified by Titan.

Titan  Titan is the program which runs all the other shell scripts (*.sh) and accepts either the -I (intro) -F (fix) -C (configuration) [ + filename] )or -V (verify) flag.

Titan.top This module is the same as Titan except the path has been modified so that When "Titan-Config" is run, Titan can be run from the top most directory.

TitanReport. This file runs all Titan modules in the $TITANDIR/bin/modules directory using the "-v" flag. TitanReport then sends email with  the results. Titanreport is intended to run out of cron, or as an auditing tool. See the FAQ for more.

Sample.Desktop,
sample.Firewall,
sample.Server,
sample.config. These files are used as templates when titan is run as "Titan -c config-file". See the FAQ for more.

backtit.sh This modules is called by "Titan-Config" when run "Titan-Config -i" (install). Backtit.sh makes a backup copy of all the files Titan modifies (tbacktit.sh currently does not backup file permission changes)

untit.sh Untit.sh is called by "Titan-Config" when run 'Titan-Config -d" (de-install) Untit.sh replaces the files modified by Titan with the original unsecured versions, and is provided as a recovery mechanism if we were to aggressive about securing the system.

noshell.c This is the preferred way of doing a noshell. This should be statically compiled (see Titan.v3.1/src1/Makefile) and should replace the shell script that disable-accounts.sh placed in /usr/sbin/noshell.

noshell-simple.c This is a simplified version of noshell.c . I don't expect this to get much use, but  should be statically compiled (see Titan,v3.1/src1/Makefile) and replace the /usr/sbin/noshell script that disable-accounts.sh creates. the script that disable-accounts.sh creates is better than nothing,  (better than /bin/true which is also a shell script) but a statically linked C program is the best way to go.

runas.c This is a simple generic program that allows administrators to start daemons as non privileged users.

Titan modules

add-umask.sh  Adds system wide umasks for rc?.d files causing system daemon to create more secure files; (From Casper Dik's code.)

adjust-arp-timers.sh  This changes the system configuration to shorten the ARP expiration timer

 to one minute instead of the default 20 minutes.

adjust.syn-timeout.sh   This changes the system configuration to shorten the Abort Time out Value to ten seconds. Only runs for older versions of Solaris 2.X. Newer versions have a patch ( 103582-11 currently) which should be applied instead.

aset.sh This module was contributed by Jason R. Rhoads mailto:jasonr@net.com. aset.sh is a  Titan wrapper around the Solaris Automated Security Enhancement Tool (ASET)

automount.sh  Disables the automounter at boot time.

bsm.sh This module was contributed by Jason R. Rhoads mailto:jasonr@net.com. bsm.sh verifies that the Basic Security Module (BSM) is enabled and configures auditing events by modifying /etc/security/audit_control.

create.issue.sh Creates the /etc/issue banner that gets displayed at login time.

decode.sh Looks for any  ``|'' in /etc/aliases and fixes if found.

disable-L1-A.sh Solaris 2.6 and newer only. This disables the L1-A or stop-A keyboard sequence by modifying /etc/default/kbd.

disable-NFS.bind.sh Moves the privileged port range to  2050 which thus includes the NFS ports

disable-accounts.sh Disables ``system'' accounts like ``bin'' and ``daemon'' and creates a /usr/sbin/noshell script. The noshell script should only be a place holder until you compile and install the noshell  statically linked C program

disable-core.sh This changed the /etc/system file making the core dump size limited  to zero length. This prevents bad guys forcing a core dump to examine any information that might be stored in  the core image such as /etc/shadow information.

disable-ping-echo.sh  This disables ip_respond_to_echo_broadcast so that specific ping crashes don't work . It also hides the system from some network probe agents that use broadcast ping to discover hosts to probe.

disable_ip_holes.sh Disables ip_forward ip_forward_directed_broadcasts, ip_source_routed,  and ip_ignore_redirect 1, ect..

dmi-2.6.sh Simply moves aside all the dmi daemons start up files. DMI doesn't do any authentication ; allows core dumps and seems to allow you to start up arbitrary services. It isn't well documented on what it actually does.

eeprom.sh  Check Only. This checks to see if you set an eeprom password ("eeprom security-mode = command" is recommended; and then move/remove the eeprom command support from the kernel) If you don't set a eeprom password, a bad guy might set one for you (eeprom security-mode = full) and then halt your system. Then since you don't know the password, you cannot reboot (DOS attack)

file-own.sh Changes system files (mainly in /usr ) to be owned by "root"." I personally don't like anything that the root user is going to run not being owned by root. When /usr/bin is owned by user ``bin'' user ``bin can trojan anything root runs; thus bin=root. Thus I change everything back to root to begin with. We need not mention NFS where root=nobody but bin=bin; I think you get the point.

fix-cronpath.sh Changes permission and ownership of things run out of roots cron.  Otherwise every time cron is run a new trojan/setuid-root-file could be created.

fix-modes.sh modes.c modes;  (From Casper Dik). Fixes all the mode 775 directories and binaries and changes the ownership to root where needed. The modes.c  may need  to be compiled locally.   - Big note here! - REMEMBER to re-run this whenever you add packages or patches!! If you don't, the modes get brain dead again.  Titan  DOES NOT run this by default. This should be run often such as out of cron or at least after adding any vendor patches.

fix-stack.sh wrapper for Casper Dik's protect_stack which forces all user zero-fill-on-demand pages are marked rw- instead of rwx. This blocks many of the stack smashing bugs from working. Note this doesn't work on all versions of the SPARC architectures (multi processors for instance)

fix-stack.sol2.6.sh Solaris 2.6 has the protect_stack ability built-in as a /etc/system configurable option. This blocks many of the stack smashing bugs from working.

ftpusers.sh Creates a sane /etc/ftpusers which stops users such as root or "bin" from using ftp. This prevents "root" from ftping over a new /etc/shadow file, and forces the administrators to ftp as themselves and then "su" to root thus keeping the audit trail  (more) intact.

hosts.equiv.sh Checks for /etc/hosts.equiv. it should also check /etc/nsswitch.conf "password and group" entries but currently doesn't.

inetd.sh Changes /etc/inetd.conf  and turns off most of the services.  You will want to  localize this.  For desktops for instance you might want to leave on the services for calendar manager and tooltalk (assuming windows) My suggestion is to get tcp_wrappers and wrap all services. Then get ssh and turn off rsh/rlogin and ftp and only use ssh/scp for remote access needs.

keyserv.sh Changes the keyserv startup to start keyserv with the "-d" option so that the default "nobody"

  key is not allowed.

is_root this is not intended to be run by users. The other scripts call this as a generic check for execution as root.

log-tcp.sh Adds the "-t" flag to in.inetd startup in /etc/rc2.d/S72inetsvc to trace all incoming TCP services.

loginlog.sh Fixes the syntax so that (assuming Sun patches) log entries are made for failed login attempts.

lpsched.sh Disables lp. For firewalls, and non-print servers. Probably want to leave this service on for desktops.

nfs-portmon.sh  Turns on NFS port monitoring for solaris.

nsswitch.sh  Modifies /etc/nsswitch.conf removing all the nis/nis+/dns entries. This is useful on a firewall, but you may want to tune it down a little on networked servers and desktops.  It also sets password and group to only look at local password/group files; again network servers or desktops might not want this behavior.

nuke-sendmail.sh This module does as it implies. Disables sendmail. This modules should be used on Firewalls that are not sendmail servers, Servers that are not sendmail servers, and all desktops that have their mail delivered to a server.

pam-rhosts-2.6.sh This solaris 2.6 module saves and modifies the /etc/pam.conf file removing the line: " rlogin  auth sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_rhosts_auth.so.1" such that rhosts are not allowed by the PAM system.

passwd.sh Checks that all accounts have passwords and adds in a "*" password if run in fix mode.

powerd.sh Checks that the power suspend (/usr/openwin/bin/sys-suspend) can only be run by the root user.

psfix.sh  This program creates /etc/rc3.d/S79tmpfix so that upon boot the /tmp

 directory will always have the sticky bit set mode 1777

rhosts.sh Originally from COPS. Scans for .rhosts in NIS and local directories but unlike COPS if run in fix mode it removes/renames them.

rmmount.sh This module adds in the nosuid option into /etc/rmmount.conf forcing vold to always mount CD's and floppies with the nosuid option enabled. Not needed if vold.sh has already disabled vold completely.

rootchk.sh Checks roots path and makes sure that root owns the directories and binaries in roots path. Changes them (when run -F) if they are wrong. Also removes the ``.'' from the path.

routed.sh Starts in.routed in the quiet mode (-q)

sanity_check This isn't meant to be run by users (thus no .sh extension) It is called by the other scripts to check to make sure scripts are called with at least one additional argument (-i/-v/-f)

sendmail.sh changes sendmail.cf adding in the option ``goaway'' so that telnet hostname 25" (connecting to the sendmail port) doesn't allow cracker to look up user info.  Note- you should also changes the P=/bin/sh to P=/bin/false if you can or look into using smrsh for servers and desktops. Note-  firewalls should  TURN OFF/wrapper  sendmail on the firewall system.  Now would be a good time to look into Postfix.

smtp-banner.sh modifies your /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file to hide the OS version you are running changes the banner from : Sendmail SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4 ready at Fri, 2 May 1997 to : Sendmail Server Ready

smtpbanner-8.8.sh
Modified sendmail version 8.8 sendmail.cf to change the banner to give out less information.

 snmpdx-2.6.sh 2.6snmpdx.sh Simply moves aside all the snmpdx daemons start up files. Snmpdx give out more

information than you really want it to. Who needs a port scanner if snmpdx is running?

syslog.sh Modifies /etc/syslog.conf so that console messages are also saved to system log files.

tcp-sequence.sh  Solaris 2.6 and newer. Changes the TCP initial sequence number generation parameters to use RFC 1948 sequence number generation, unique-per-connection-ID.

telnet-banner.sh This module was contributed by Jason R. Rhoads mailto:jasonr@net.com. telnet-banner.sh  sets BANNER="" in /etc/default/telnetd so that the Solaris version is not displayed before the login prompt

userumask.sh Adds in a umask of 022 for users in /etc/skel and /etc files.

utmp.sh Checks utmp and utmpx just to be sure it isn't world writeable.

vold.sh  Turns off vold. Needed on a Firewall and Servers, but might be left on on desktop systems where users are allowed to mount CD's and Floppy disks via windowing tools.

ziplock.sh  The final step in tightening - READ CAREFULLY -This program absolutely tightens perms for much of the OS. Caution after this is run ONLY root and group STAFF will be able  run many system functions!!! Not intended to be run on normal systems only those with strict access rules.

Optional Modules

This directory contains some specific case modules, where you don't want or need to run them except in specific configurations. They are put into the optional directory just so they don't get run by accident.

anon-ftp.setup.sh  Straight from the Man page for in.ftpd. Sets up Anonymous ftp area in a reasonable way. This should NOT be used very often, only on systems that are supposed to allow anonymous ftp.  Titan does not run this by default.

suid.sh This is a "check only" module. Run it once, and it will report the number of setuid binaries on the local file systems. EDIT the script once this number is known and change "known_suid" variable. On subsequent checks, suid.sh will check and report any new suid binaries that appear (on local file systems only). This is meant for audit purposes and possibly for use in cron. Tripwire is a much better solution, and if suid.sh makes you think about getting and installing Tripwire then its achieved its purpose.

wwwchk.sh This program looks for a WWW (HTTP/HTTPS) server running locally and tries to validate permissions on any htaccess or other locally defined access control files. Other areas checked are DocumentRoot, ServerRoot permissions on any user account access control files e.g.; htaccess In fix mode (-f) changes will set all files/dirs to owner read/write/execute, group read/execute, other execute.
