Assessment Title
Rule Text
PostgreSQL must generate audit records when unsuccessful attempts to add privileges/permissions occur.
Description
Discussion Text
Failed attempts to change the permissions, privileges, and roles granted to users and roles must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized attempts to elevate or restrict privileges could go undetected.
In an SQL environment, adding permissions is typically done via the GRANT command, or, in the negative, the REVOKE command.
To aid in diagnosis, it is necessary to keep track of failed attempts in addition to the successful ones.
