Assessment Title
Rule Text
AlmaLinux OS 9 must limit the number of bogus Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) response errors logs.
Description
Discussion Text
Some routers will send responses to broadcast frames that violate RFC-1122, which fills up a log file system with many useless error messages. An attacker may take advantage of this and attempt to flood the logs with bogus error logs. Ignoring bogus ICMP error responses reduces log size, although some activity would not be logged.
